Detects the use of BITSAdmin to download files from remote URLs. Attackers frequently abuse BITSAdmin, a legitimate Windows administrative tool, to download malicious payloads or secondary tools from external servers.
This rule detects potentially malicious activities on Linux systems, including the download of files via curl or wget from a specific IP address, execution of scripts named 'isp.sh', usage of hidden temporary files (e.g., .xlamb), detection of processes named 'lambsys', and execution of scripts within the /var/tmp directory after a chmod +x command. These patterns are often associated with stage-1 or stage-2 dropper behaviors, malware persistence, or post-exploitation activities.
This rule detects the use of BITSAdmin or PowerShell 'Start-BitsTransfer' to initiate file transfer jobs. These tools can be abused by adversaries to download malicious payloads or exfiltrate data, often bypassing standard firewall restrictions. The rule specifically filters out legitimate Microsoft-signed processes to reduce noise.
This rule detects suspicious activity on Linux endpoints related to the execution of files named 'isp.sh' or 'lambsys', as well as potential file downloads from a known malicious IP address. It monitors process creations and file creations involving these specific artifacts, as well as common attack patterns such as piping web-downloaded content directly to a shell.
Detects the use of certutil.exe for potentially malicious activities including file encoding/decoding and downloading files from the internet. Attackers often abuse this legitimate Windows utility to deobfuscate payloads or pull malicious files onto a target system.
Detects the use of certutil.exe for potentially malicious activities including file encoding/decoding and downloading files from the internet. Attackers often abuse this legitimate Windows utility to deobfuscate payloads or pull malicious files onto a target system.
Detects the use of the Windows certutil.exe utility for potentially suspicious file operations, including downloading files from remote URLs via 'urlcache' or 'split', or encoding/decoding files. This is a common Living-off-the-Land (LotL) technique used by attackers to stage malicious payloads or deobfuscate malicious content.
Detects instances where common web browsers (chrome.exe, firefox.exe, etc.) spawn command shells (cmd.exe, powershell.exe) to execute suspicious commands or perform file downloads, often indicative of an initial stage of a drive-by download or malicious script execution.
Detects the use of bitsadmin.exe to create or modify BITS jobs, which can be leveraged by attackers for file downloads or as a persistence mechanism to execute commands.

Detects the download of a standalone CPython 3.10.18 interpreter from github.com/astral-sh/python-build-standalone using curl, followed by the extraction of the compressed archive using tar. This behavior is associated with the macOS.Gaslight malware's secondary collection module installer, which likely prepares a localized Python environment to execute further malicious tasks.
Detects the execution of the Windows binary 'certutil.exe' using flags commonly abused by adversaries to download files from remote URLs or decode base64-encoded files. It excludes instances where certutil is executed by Microsoft-signed processes from the System32 directory to reduce false positives.
Detects the use of bitsadmin.exe to create or modify BITS transfer jobs, a technique often used by adversaries to download payloads or exfiltrate data under the guise of background system tasks.
Detects the use of PowerShell to initiate web requests to Storj-hosted URLs (link.storjshare.io or .storj.io), utilizing either the WebClient class or the Invoke-WebRequest cmdlet. This behavior is associated with the REF8372 OXLOADER malvertising campaign, where PowerShell scripts are used to download malicious payloads.
Detects the use of bitsadmin.exe to initiate file transfers, downloads, or file additions using HTTP protocols. This utility is frequently abused by adversaries for Ingress Tool Transfer by downloading malicious payloads from remote systems.
Detects usage of the built-in Windows utility 'certutil.exe' with parameters commonly used to download files from remote URLs, such as '-urlcache' or '-verifyctl'. This behavior is frequently exploited by adversaries to perform ingress tool transfer and fetch malicious payloads.

Detects usage of the built-in Windows utility 'certutil.exe' with parameters commonly used to download files from remote URLs, such as '-urlcache' or '-verifyctl'. This behavior is frequently exploited by adversaries to perform ingress tool transfer and fetch malicious payloads.
Detects the use of the built-in Windows utility 'certutil.exe' with arguments commonly used to download remote content (-urlcache -split -f) or decode base64 encoded files (-decode, -decodehex), when the output or operation occurs within temporary system directories such as Temp, AppData, or ProgramData, and the process is not signed by Microsoft.
Detects the execution of PowerShell or PWSH attempting to download external content via web-oriented cmdlets (Net.WebClient, Invoke-WebRequest, Start-BitsTransfer) using typical obfuscation flags (e.g., -WindowStyle Hidden).
Detects the use of legitimate scripting utilities (curl, wget, powershell) to download files into common, potentially writable, or temporary directories (Temp, AppData, ProgramData, Downloads). The rule specifically excludes files that are digitally signed by trusted publishers.
