This rule detects potential malicious activity where PowerShell is used to write base64-encoded files disguised with non-script extensions (e.g., .ini), which are subsequently decoded using 'certutil.exe -decode' and executed via 'wscript.exe'. This chain is a common technique used to bypass security controls by obfuscating script content and utilizing legitimate system binaries for deobfuscation and execution.
Detects the creation or modification of Fortinet VPN-related configuration, command, or script files on a system. Attackers may target these files to gain unauthorized access, modify VPN parameters, or extract sensitive connection information.
This rule monitors system and audit logs on network appliances (like Cisco vManage) for unauthorized attempts to escalate privileges to a rogue root user ('troot') and suspicious file manipulation or command execution related to tenant list management, often associated with exploitation of specific vulnerabilities.
Detects the presence of HijackLoader/IDAT Loader payloads disguised as non-PNG files. The rule identifies files containing concatenated PNG IDAT chunks that do not start with a valid PNG magic header, followed by a canonical IEND terminator, characteristic of steganographic data storage used to deploy the HijackLoader toolkit.
Detects high-volume file modification events resulting in files renamed with the .inc extension, which is a characteristic behavior of the INC ransomware strain. The rule monitors for more than 50 such modifications on a single host within a 10-minute window, serving as an indicator of active encryption and potential ransomware impact.
Detects the creation or modification of a file named 'log.txt' within a 'ProgramData' directory by the 'FortiEndpoint_Patch.exe' process. This pattern may indicate the diagnostic logging activity of the FortiEndpoint patch mechanism.
Detects a sequence of actions on macOS where an attacker removes the quarantine extended attribute (com.apple.quarantine) using 'xattr' and subsequently performs ad-hoc code signing using 'codesign' on the same system. This behavior is indicative of an attempt to bypass macOS Gatekeeper security controls to execute untrusted or malicious binaries.
Detects file activity (creation, modification, copying, or renaming) within the 'leveldb' directories of popular web browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera) and Discord applications by processes other than the legitimate application executables. This behavior is highly indicative of credential theft or data staging, often associated with malware attempting to extract browser session cookies, local storage databases, or stored credentials.
Detects the creation or modification of a file named '.config' within the path 'Library/Application Support/com.apple.finder.core/'. This behavior is indicative of potential persistence mechanisms, as adversaries often use hidden files within application support directories to maintain foothold or store configurations on macOS.
Detects a malicious HTA lure disguised as a military pay calculator. The attack involves a JScript routine that renames an embedded data file ('styles.dat') to an executable ('styles.dat.exe') and triggers its execution, characteristic of a spearphishing attachment delivering malware.
Detects the execution of Certutil.exe with specific command-line arguments (-decode, -urlcache, -split) or references to suspicious file patterns (Link.dat, Link.ini) which are often indicative of malicious activity such as downloading remote payloads, decoding obfuscated binaries, or staging files for lateral movement.
Detects the EKZ Stealer malware masquerading as a legitimate Fortinet update process (FortiEndpoint_Patch.exe). The rule monitors for the execution of this specific filename or hash, identifies suspicious command-line arguments (list, search, view, label, export) indicating credential theft activities, and alerts on the creation of the binary and subsequent log files within the ProgramData directory.
This rule detects the creation or modification of core Chrome extension files (manifest.json, background.js, search.html) within the Chrome User Data directory by processes other than standard Chrome executables (chrome.exe, chromium.exe, googleupdate.exe). It also includes a specific alert for a known extension identifier. This activity is often indicative of unauthorized browser extension installation, potentially for persistence, credential theft, or malicious C2 activity.
Detects the download of JPEG image files to suspicious system directories (e.g., C:\Windows\, C:\ProgramData\) followed by subsequent file read operations by non-image viewer processes, which is indicative of steganographic payload extraction used in campaigns such as Operation DragonReturn/DcRAT.
This rule detects activities indicative of the RoguePlanet exploit, which utilizes NTFS junction swapping to stage malicious operations. It monitors for the creation of suspicious system-like directories within temporary paths, writing of executables (like wermgr.exe) to those paths, unprivileged manipulation of the Windows Defender Quarantine directory, and virtual disk image mounting from user-writable directories.
Detects attempts to perform container escapes or escalate privileges within a Gitea Actions runner environment. The rule monitors for the execution of dangerous container options (e.g., --pid=host, --privileged, --cap-add=ALL) in CI/CD workflow configurations, the spawning of 'nsenter' by the runner process, and writes to sensitive host system paths from containerized processes.
Detects indicators of exploitation attempts against the CVE-2026-55200 libssh2 heap out-of-bounds write vulnerability. The rule identifies the creation of known PoC artifacts on disk, execution of exploit harnesses or probe binaries, Python scripts masquerading as or interacting with the PoC server, and libssh2-dependent client applications making network connections to the non-standard port 2222 used by the exploit scaffold.
Detects the creation or modification of a .vscode/tasks.json file, followed by the execution of a process (specifically node.exe) that targets a script file without a standard JavaScript extension (.js, .mjs, .cjs). This behavior is consistent with an adversary configuring a hidden VS Code task (e.g., using 'hide:true' and 'runOn:folderOpen') to silently execute arbitrary code or assets when a project folder is opened.
Detects the presence, file creation, or execution of known proof-of-concept (PoC) scripts, binaries, and directories associated with the exploitation of the libssh2 CVE-2026-55200 vulnerability.
Detects potentially malicious activity involving MySQL processes, specifically focusing on the creation of files within the /var/lib/mysql-files/ directory, use of SQL 'INTO OUTFILE' for file output, or the use of 'LOAD_FILE()' to read sensitive system files like /etc/hostname or /proc/1/mountinfo, often indicative of SQL injection exploitation or unauthorized data access.
Detects signs of a supply chain attack, specifically referencing the IronWorm/Shai-Hulud pattern, involving the backdating of git commits, manipulation of git environment variables (GIT_COMMITTER_DATE/GIT_AUTHOR_DATE) to mask malicious activity history, and the use of 'touch' commands to modify file timestamps on project-related binaries and configuration files.
