Detects execution or file presence associated with HOOKEDGE/HEADLACE malware. This rule uses a dual-approach: matching known malicious file hashes (SHA256) and monitoring for specific script files (bat, vbs, cmd) following a GUID-formatted naming convention typically used by the HOOKEDGE installer chain.

Detects the presence of PostgreSQL logical decoding output plugins (shared libraries) that export the '_PG_init' initialization function and contain strings indicative of unauthorized catalog modification, privilege escalation, or persistence attempts, often associated with PostGREShell-style attack vectors (CVE-2026-6471).

This rule detects the presence of specific file hashes known to be associated with backdoored software builds, specifically related to recent supply chain compromises affecting South Korean software vendors (e.g., HAProxy builds). It monitors device file events, process initiation, and identity logon events to identify systems that have deployed, executed, or been accessed by these malicious binaries.

Detects the execution of an executable file located within the Windows Temp directory structure via the command prompt (cmd.exe). This pattern is commonly associated with the execution of downloaded payloads, droppers, or staged malware that are moved to temporary directories to evade initial detection.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity associated with removable media (USB drives) by identifying two distinct patterns: first, the creation of an 'autorun.inf' file on a removable drive followed by the execution of a script or executable from that same drive shortly after. Second, it identifies executables appearing on removable media that are launched across multiple distinct hosts within a one-hour window, which may indicate worm-like spreading or mass-malware distribution via portable storage.

This rule monitors security event logs for the presence of a specific file hash identified as potentially malicious (d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e). This hash specifically corresponds to an empty file (MD5 checksum of an empty string), often indicating potential obfuscation techniques, failed file writes, or placeholder files used by malicious scripts.

Detects abuse of Tiny-C-Compiler (TinyCC) for shellcode execution, where tcc.exe is renamed to masquerade as svchost.exe and used to compile and execute C source files containing shellcode.
This technique was observed in the Lotus Blossom Chrysalis backdoor campaign, where attackers renamed "tcc.exe" to "svchost.exe", and executed a file named "conf.c" containing Metasploit block_api shellcode with the flags -nostdlib -run.
TinyCC is a legitimate C compiler, but its ability to compile and execute code on-the-fly makes it attractive to attackers seeking to evade detection.
The combination of a renamed compiler binary executing from non-standard locations with suspicious flags is a strong indicator of malicious activity.

This rule monitors for two indicators of potentially self-propagating malware: the creation of autorun.inf files on removable or network-mapped drives combined with active SMB network connections (suggesting worm propagation), and the rapid creation of multiple unique executable files across multiple devices (suggesting an outbreak or worm activity).
