This rule detects attempts to access the Security Account Manager (SAM) database remotely over Server Message Block (SMB). It specifically looks for TCP traffic on port 445 (SMB) directed to the home network, containing the string "\SAM" (case-insensitive) and "NtOpenFile" (case-insensitive). This combination suggests an attempt to open the SAM database file, which could indicate credential access attempts.
This rule detects network traffic containing the string "chmod 777" followed by "/tmp/" (case-insensitive) within a TCP flow to a server on port 22. This pattern suggests an attempt to change file permissions to world-writable (777) in the /tmp directory, which is a common tactic used by malware to hide or execute malicious files.
This rule detects attempts to copy the Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS) certificate database for offline forgery. Specifically, it looks for SMB traffic to a server on port 445 (SMB) containing the string "certnew.cer" (case-insensitive) in the content, indicating a file transfer of a newly issued certificate. This activity is often associated with credential access techniques, where an attacker might exfiltrate certificate data to forge credentials.
This rule detects attempts to perform process injection using the 'ptrace' system call, specifically looking for 'ptrace' and 'PTRACE_ATTACH' within TCP traffic destined for SSH (port 22). This activity is indicative of an attacker trying to attach to a running process, often for debugging, modifying its memory, or injecting malicious code, potentially after gaining remote access via SSH.
This rule detects the use of a Silver Ticket for SMB service authentication. A Silver Ticket is a forged Kerberos service ticket that allows an attacker to authenticate to a specific service (like SMB) on a specific server without needing to interact with the Domain Controller. The rule looks for TCP traffic on port 445 (SMB) containing both 'NTLMSSP' and 'KRB5' content, indicating a Kerberos authentication attempt that might be a Silver Ticket. A threshold is applied to prevent excessive alerts.
This rule detects a Silver Ticket attack, specifically looking for forged Kerberos service tickets. It inspects UDP traffic on port 88 (Kerberos) for specific byte sequences indicative of a forged ticket. The content '|6b|' at depth 1 and '|a0 03 02 01 05|' are specific patterns associated with the structure of a Kerberos ticket, which when combined, suggest a malicious attempt to authenticate to a service without proper credentials.
This rule detects a rogue DHCP server offer on the network. It specifically looks for UDP traffic on port 67 (DHCP server port) to the home network, containing the DHCP message type '02' (DHCP Offer) at the beginning of the payload. A threshold is set to trigger an alert if 3 such offers are detected from the same source within 10 seconds, indicating a potentially malicious or misconfigured DHCP server attempting to assign IP addresses.
Detects Shellshock bash CGI exploitation attempts
Detects high-volume POST requests to login forms indicating credential harvesting
Detects compromised WordPress sites being used to relay C2 traffic
Detects bulk scraping of LinkedIn company profiles for employee intelligence
Detects legitimate software deployment tools used for remote execution
Detects download of password wordlists or hash dumps for offline cracking
This rule detects potential information disclosure attempts by monitoring W3C IIS logs for repeated queries containing keywords like 'version', 'build', or 'debug'. A high frequency (5 or more attempts within an hour) from a single IP address suggests an adversary is trying to enumerate software versions or debug information, which can be used for further reconnaissance or exploit development.
Detects compromised WordPress sites being used to relay C2 traffic
Detects NTP reflection amplification DDoS attack traffic
This rule detects processes making a high number of successful network connections (10 or more within an hour) to known public container registries such as docker.io or quay.io. This activity could indicate legitimate containerization operations, but also potential malicious activity like downloading malicious container images as part of a supply chain attack, or ingress of tools.
This rule detects an unusual number of HTTP OPTIONS or TRACE method requests from a single IP address within a one-hour window. While these methods have legitimate uses, their frequent or excessive use can indicate reconnaissance, vulnerability scanning, or attempts to bypass security controls. The rule triggers if 5 or more such requests are observed from the same IP within an hour.
Detects IP addresses generating a high volume of web requests to an IIS server where the referrer is external to the host. This can indicate web scraping, reconnaissance, or denial-of-service attempts.
This rule detects an unusually high number of web search queries (identified by 'search' or 'query' in the URI) originating from a single IP address within a one-hour window. A threshold of 100 or more queries triggers the alert. This behavior could indicate automated activity such as web scraping, reconnaissance, or a denial-of-service attempt against the search functionality.
This rule detects a high volume of access attempts (5 or more within an hour) to administrative shares (C$, D$, E$, ADMIN$) from a single source IP address. This activity can be indicative of lateral movement, data exfiltration, or reconnaissance by an adversary attempting to gain access to sensitive information or spread malware across the network.
