Detects the creation of a shortcut file (.lnk) in the Windows Startup directory by the 'UpdateAssistant.exe' process. The rule specifically looks for evidence of a masquerading attempt where the shortcut appears to be an application update helper but potentially references or exhibits characteristics of being linked to a notepad execution, suggesting persistence via shortcut file manipulation.

This rule detects the presence of specific file artifacts and directory paths associated with the 'Mini Shai-Hulud' malicious campaign, which involves the compromise of the 'openapi-react-query-codegen' npm package. It monitors for indicators of compromise (IOCs) such as specific malicious JavaScript and shell script filenames, as well as persistence artifacts like plist and service files.

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 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.

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 coordinated behavioral signals associated with the CVE-2025-25249 campaign, which deploys the PivotC2 Node.js RAT on FortiGate devices. The rule correlates anomalous inbound CAPWAP (UDP/5246) traffic, Node.js process execution, suspicious JavaScript file writes, and unauthorized access to Fortinet configuration files, followed by long-lived outbound TLS beacons to non-standard ports.

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 potential web shell activity by identifying suspicious PHP file creation within Magento-style product cache directories and the execution of find commands targeted at searching for PHP files in the web directory. This behavior is indicative of an attacker attempting to plant a web shell and subsequently enumerating web files for further exploitation.

This rule detects file-based activity associated with a tool named 'gh-token-monitor', which is likely used for the monitoring or exfiltration of GitHub access tokens from a compromised host. The rule monitors for the creation or presence of specific scripts, configuration files, and directory paths associated with this activity, including files related to a 'claude' configuration.

305
Detects unauthorized attempts to dump the process memory of the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS), a common technique used by attackers to harvest credentials from memory. This includes the use of legitimate diagnostic tools like procdump and comsvcs.dll, as well as the identification of resulting dump files in directory paths associated with LSASS.

Detects instances where 'TieringEngineService.exe' or 'MsMpEng.exe' (Windows Defender) create, modify, or rename executable, library, or system files within the 'C:\Windows\System32\' directory. This behavior is highly irregular as these processes should not be authoring binaries in protected system folders, and may indicate process masquerading, unauthorized persistence, or defense evasion.

Detects the creation or modification of specific files within the /tmp directory, specifically those matching naming patterns associated with 'jasper-log' files or temporary pipe files. These patterns are often associated with temporary storage or data staging activities during post-exploitation or malware execution.

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.

Detects the creation or modification of a specific file ('libvirtlog.so.0') located in '/usr/lib/' which acts as a gating mechanism for the curlRAT malware. The detection correlates this file event with processes commonly associated with system management that are executing with command line arguments indicative of malicious activity (e.g., 'reverse', 'pty').

This rule detects either the execution of a specific SSH daemon binary known to be trojanized or the creation/modification of files within the /var/lib/sshd/ directory, which is a common indicator of backdoor persistence or credential theft targeting SSH sessions.

Detects the creation or modification of files within the /tmp directory that follow a specific naming convention (t[number]_w.pipe) by an HAProxy process. This pattern is often associated with inter-process communication or potential post-exploitation activity where HAProxy is leveraged to handle named pipes for malicious command execution or data redirection.
