This rule detects potential COM hijacking of the CLSID InprocServer32 registry keys or unauthorized loading/creation of the 'EhStoreShell.dll' file. These behaviors are common indicators of persistence mechanisms or DLL side-loading where attackers redirect legitimate system calls to malicious code.

This rule detects potentially malicious behavior associated with Microsoft Office applications, such as Word, initiating suspicious WebDAV network connections, dropping executable or sensitive files, or spawning known LOLBAS processes (rundll32, explorer, regsvr32) from suspicious directories like Temp or WebDAV paths. It also includes a blocklist for known malicious file hashes associated with these patterns.

Detects the presence of known malicious Outlook VBA project files (VbaProject.OTM), modifications to Outlook macro-security registry keys to enable macro execution, and subsequent network activity initiated by Outlook on devices that have exhibited these suspicious behaviors.

Detects the creation or modification of files within the /etc/init.d/ directory, followed by process activity related to that same directory. This pattern is commonly associated with attackers establishing persistence on Linux systems via SysVinit scripts.

Detects the creation and immediate deletion of a .dylib file within the 'Library/Application Support/updated/instances/' directory on macOS. This pattern is often associated with the ProRAM technique where a shared library is written to disk, loaded via dlopen, and quickly removed to evade static file-based detection.

This rule detects potential ransomware activity by correlating three distinct indicators: deletion of Volume Shadow Copies (using native Windows utilities), mass file modifications (>100 files in 15 minutes), and the creation or modification of files typically associated with ransom notes. The rule uses an inner join to ensure these events happen within a 30-minute window of each other on the same device.

This rule detects suspicious file system activity (creation, modification, or renaming) performed by the ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) Agent process, excluding files within standard ESET installation and ProgramData directories. This behavior may indicate an adversary attempting to leverage the legitimate ERA agent to perform unauthorized file operations or masquerading as the agent.

Detects the creation of an NTUSER.MAN file followed by an update or creation of a registry run key (Run or RunOnce) on the same device within a 60-minute window. NTUSER.MAN is a mandatory user profile file that, when present, can be used to override user settings and persist malicious configurations or startup entries.

Detects instances where WerFault.exe or WerMgr.exe, running with SYSTEM privileges, loads a DLL file from the Windows\System32 directory that was created within 10 minutes of the image load event. This behavior is indicative of potential DLL side-loading or hijack techniques used to achieve privilege escalation.

This rule detects a suspicious sequence of events where a process with a name resembling an updater (AutoUpdate.exe or au.exe) accesses a specific remote configuration file from a herokuapp.com URL, followed by the creation or modification of specific application binaries (e.g., InstaTime.exe, ffmpegsumo.dll). This pattern is indicative of a supply chain compromise or an automated software update hijacking where malicious binaries are staged to replace legitimate application components.

Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of PHP files within the 'wp-content/uploads' directory of a WordPress installation. This pattern is commonly indicative of an attacker uploading a web shell to maintain persistence or execute arbitrary code on a compromised web server.

Detects the modification or replacement of critical Linux system daemons (crond, sshd, polkitd, etc.) followed by a service restart or reload. This behavior is indicative of potential trojanization or unauthorized tampering of system processes to establish persistence or inject malicious code.

001
Detects modifications to the 'crond' daemon binary followed closely (within 5 minutes) by a restart or start command via common system management utilities. This behavior is highly indicative of potential persistence mechanisms where an adversary replaces a system binary with a malicious version.

Detects evidence of persistence mechanisms associated with the StyleSmuggler implant. The rule monitors for malicious crontab entries and file system activity related to gvfsd-user, .gvfsd, and /tmp/.kw_ artifacts.

Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of files within directories associated with GVFS (GNOME Virtual File System) or files masquerading as GVFS components. Adversaries often use these paths and file names to stage or hide malicious tools and persistence mechanisms on Linux systems.

Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of unsigned executable files (.exe, .dll, .sys, .efi) within critical Windows system directories (System32, SysWOW64, drivers, boot). The rule excludes activity triggered by known trusted OS update processes, such as TrustedInstaller or Windows Update services, and optionally flags occurrences outside defined maintenance windows.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity where multiple critical processes (such as database engines or email clients) are terminated in a short time frame, correlated with a high volume of file creation or modification events on the same device. This behavior is indicative of destructive activity, such as ransomware encrypting data stores or disabling defensive software.

Detects high-frequency file creation, modification, or renaming activity involving files with the specific '.df_win' extension, likely indicative of mass encryption activity or automated ransomware behavior. The rule excludes known backup and security software processes to reduce noise.

Detects a suspicious sequence of events involving the execution of 'setup.sh', the subsequent creation of a hidden file in temporary directories, and the deletion of specific architecture-named files (redtail.*). This behavior is indicative of a malware loader or droppers attempting to install and then remove traces of its components.
