Detects browser extension updates that request a combination of high-risk permissions capable of account takeover (e.g., cookies, webRequest, identity) for extensions previously classified as low-risk. This pattern often indicates a supply chain compromise where a benign extension is acquired and subsequently updated with malicious capabilities.
This rule detects indicators of the PitScaler campaign targeting Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway appliances, exploiting vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-88771, CVE-2026-88772). It identifies the full attack chain including initial DTLS heap corruption exploitation, WHIPSHOT web shell C2 patterns, SLAPSHOT tunneling artifacts, web shell deployment files, httpd.conf PHP configuration tampering for persistence, privilege escalation via setuid /bin/sh modification, and anti-forensic log tampering.
Detects a potential web shell deployment by identifying a web server process creating or modifying a file in common web directory locations, followed shortly (within 10 minutes) by the execution of that same file.
Detects modifications to core NetScaler startup configuration files 'ns.conf' or 'rc.netscaler'. Attackers often target these files after initial access to establish persistence by injecting malicious commands, rewrite, or responder policies to maintain access to the appliance.
Detects evidence of exploitation and post-exploitation activity related to CVE-2026-59310, an unauthenticated RCE vulnerability in the VMware vCenter Syslog Server. The rule monitors for suspicious child processes spawned by vmsyslogcollector, directory traversal patterns in command lines, and persistence mechanisms involving SSH authorized_keys modification, cron job creation, or systemd unit deployment on the VCSA shell.
Hunting query, not intended as a scheduled alert.
Tested in a live Sentinel tenant with a test file. Copilot Cowork and Claude Code folder conventions not validated with live events; the Tool column is a label only and does not filter results. Matches files named SKILL.md in OneDrive and SharePoint only; local-only files and marketplace plugin skills are not visible.

The following analytic detects modifications to files with extensions commonly associated with ransomware. It leverages the Endpoint.Filesystem data model to identify changes in file extensions that match known ransomware patterns.
This activity is significant because it suggests an attacker is attempting to encrypt or alter files, potentially leading to severe data loss and operational disruption.
If confirmed malicious, this activity could result in the encryption of critical data, rendering it inaccessible and causing significant damage to the organization's data integrity and availability.

This rule monitors for Linux web-server service accounts (such as www-data or nginx) attempting to elevate privileges by modifying file permissions to set SUID/SGID bits or by executing common system binaries with shell-escape patterns commonly documented in GTFOBins for privilege escalation.
Detects instances where a process writes to known persistence locations, including Windows Registry Run keys, the Windows Startup folder, Linux shell profile configuration files (.bashrc/.bash_profile), and system-level task directories (cron and systemd units). This activity is often indicative of malicious persistence mechanisms, such as those used by compromised AI agents or backdoors to survive system reboots.
Detects potential misuse of SSH credentials by identifying successful SSH logins from source IP addresses that have not been observed in the previous 14 days, or successful SSH logins occurring within one hour of an authorized_keys file modification on the same host. This combination of behaviors is indicative of an adversary establishing or using persistence via SSH key manipulation.
Detects command-line activity on a NetScaler appliance indicative of defense evasion by truncating, deleting, or disabling audit logs (ns.log) and syslog forwarding services. This activity often follows the exploitation of public-facing application vulnerabilities where an attacker seeks to hide their presence.
Detects a potential web shell deployment by identifying a web server process creating or modifying a file in common web directory locations, followed shortly (within 10 minutes) by the execution of that same file.
This rule performs a retrospective search across device file and network events for indicators of compromise associated with the UNC6240/ShinyHunters actor's activity against PeopleSoft, specifically linked to CVE-2026-35273. It monitors for known malicious file hashes (JSP webshells and executables), connections to known C2 infrastructure, and DNS lookups for specific malicious domains.

This Analytic detects the execution of a process attempting to access the hosts file.
The hosts file is a critical file for network configuration and DNS resolution.
If an attacker gains access to it, they can redirect traffic to malicious websites, serve fake content or block legitimate security websites.

Detects attempts to redirect Python package resolution away from the default PyPI index. This is achieved by monitoring pip CLI arguments (--index-url, --extra-index-url), environment variables (PIP_INDEX_URL, PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL, PIP_CONFIG_FILE), or the creation/modification of pip configuration files (pip.conf, pip.ini). Such activity is often associated with software supply chain attacks where an adversary attempts to force the installation of malicious packages from a controlled repository.
Detects the use of PowerShell commands to modify file timestamps (CreationTime, LastWriteTime, LastAccessTime) on web application directories and configuration files, a technique often used by attackers to hide modifications made to webshells or malicious scripts.
Detects PowerShell execution that modifies the 'jquery.mousewheel-3.0.6.pack.js' file while simultaneously attempting to timestomp file metadata or utilizing specific obfuscation markers identified in webshell deployment patterns.
Detects a file named dnsapi.dll created/modified outside System32/SysWOW64/WinSxS (the only legitimate locations for the real system DLL). Now requires the file to BOTH land in one of the known NeedyMantis sideload staging folders AND match the published 3448-byte spoofed-config size -- previously the size check alone could match unrelated dnsapi.dll copies anywhere on disk; requiring both signals together removes that bypass.
This rule detects a sequence of suspicious activities involving files placed in 'ProgramData\Firefox'. It identifies the creation or modification of a non-standard executable within this folder, followed by its execution by a trusted process (or itself), and the subsequent creation of a Registry run key for persistence. This pattern is often used by adversaries for persistence mechanism implementation using masqueraded file names.
Detects the creation or modification of SSH authorized_keys or authorized_keys2 files. This is a common persistence technique used to maintain remote access by adding an adversary-controlled public key to a user's configuration, often performed after initial access through exploitation of public-facing services.
