This rule detects the deployment and potential abuse of Velociraptor, a DFIR (Digital Forensics and Incident Response) tool. It identifies Velociraptor by monitoring file creation/modification in common installation paths and for its executable name, process execution, and the creation of suspicious child processes (like PowerShell, cmd, curl, wget) by Velociraptor. The rule also attempts to correlate these activities to determine the severity of the detection, indicating potential post-exploitation activity.

This rule detects various activities associated with the ClawdBot campaign, which uses a fake VS Code extension to drop the ScreenConnect RAT. Detection logic includes suspicious network activity fetching malicious payloads (config.json, lightshot files, zoomupdate.msi) from known malicious domains or Dropbox, identification of known malicious file hashes, outbound connections to ScreenConnect C2 servers on port 8041, creation or start of ScreenConnect services, file dropping/staging in temporary directories, and execution of Code.exe or ScreenConnect binaries from temporary paths.

This rule detects potential malware execution and persistence by correlating suspicious script and HTA activity with known malicious infrastructure. It flags mshta, wscript, and cscript executing remote HTA or script content, related network connections and downloads, temporary file artefacts, connections to listed suspicious domains and IPs, attempts to add Windows Defender exclusions, and fake browser update style process launches that retrieve executables over HTTP.

Detects indicators of compromise related to trojanized ScreenConnect installers and abuse of ScreenConnect C2 configuration. This rule identifies suspicious process executions of ScreenConnect components, known malicious hashes associated with ScreenConnect malware, ScreenConnect processes launched by installer executables (msiexec), network connections to ScreenConnect relay domains, DNS resolutions for ScreenConnect relays, modifications to 'system.config' files within ScreenConnect directories indicative of C2 configuration, and malicious registry artifacts related to ScreenConnect installation.

Detects the creation or modification of a `.vscode/tasks.json` file that is configured to automatically run a task when a folder is opened.
Adversaries can abuse this feature in VS Code and GitHub Codespaces to achieve remote code execution by tricking a user into opening a malicious repository or pull request.

Detects the modification of a `.vscode/settings.json` file to include a `PROMPT_COMMAND`. This technique allows an attacker to execute arbitrary commands every time a new terminal is opened in a Linux-based VS Code environment, such as GitHub Codespaces. It can be used for persistence or to exfiltrate credentials and secrets.

Detects the use of lifecycle hooks in `.devcontainer/devcontainer.json` files to execute potentially malicious commands. Adversaries can abuse hooks like `postCreateCommand` or `postStartCommand` in development environments like GitHub Codespaces to automatically run scripts upon container creation. This can be used to exfiltrate secrets, such as GitHub tokens, or establish further access.

This rule detects activity associated with the 'ClawdBot' campaign, which involves dropping the ScreenConnect Remote Access Trojan (RAT) via a fake VS Code extension. It identifies suspicious network connections to known malicious domains or Dropbox (when initiated by Code.exe), known malicious file hashes, outbound connections to ScreenConnect C2 ports, creation or start of ScreenConnect services, file drops in temporary directories related to ScreenConnect or Lightshot, and execution of Code.exe or ScreenConnect binaries from temporary folders. It also looks for initial payload downloads from attacker command and control infrastructure.

Detects the creation or modification of a browser extension's manifest.json file configured to inject a script into the 'MAIN' world context of chatgpt.com. This technique allows the extension to bypass the isolated content script environment, hook native APIs like window.fetch, and steal session tokens, as seen in a campaign targeting ChatGPT users.
