Detects unauthorized attempts to access or dump the memory of the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) process. The rule monitors for cross-process memory access, the use of legitimate Windows tools like rundll32.exe (loading comsvcs.dll) and procdump.exe for dumping LSASS, and detection of Cobalt Strike-specific command-line patterns related to credential theft.
This rule detects potentially malicious activity involving the CredentialUIBroker.exe process or the use of SetWindowsHookEx API calls. These behaviors are often associated with attempts to intercept user input or dump credentials from system processes.
Detects behavior indicative of the SNOWLIGHT dropper, which uses direct syscalls to perform memory allocation (VirtualAlloc/VirtualProtect with PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE) and subsequent process access to LSASS or other critical security processes (MsMpEng.exe, csrss.exe, winlogon.exe). The detection specifically looks for the absence of ntdll.dll in the call stack during these operations, signaling an EDR bypass attempt via direct syscalls within a 60-second window.
This rule detects a sequence of Windows API calls indicative of process injection behavior associated with the VSHELL RAT (UNC5221). The detection monitors for the combination of VirtualAllocEx (with page permissions allowing execution), WriteProcessMemory, and QueueUserAPC or NtQueueApcThread targeting common Windows system processes (svchost.exe, explorer.exe, notepad.exe) from the same source process within a one-minute window.
Detects behavior consistent with the Pay2Key ransomware, which checks for the presence of Avast security software directories, verifies SYSTEM account access via registry queries, and performs subsequent DLL sideloading by dropping 'powrprof.dll' into the Avast application folder.
Detects the execution of a malicious file disguised as 'wusvc.exe' originating from the user Downloads folder. The rule also monitors for suspicious network connections from this process to a known C2 IP address and detects potential defensive evasion techniques such as memory protection changes (PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE) used for syscall stub patching or AMSI bypass in non-Microsoft signed versions of this process.
Detects unauthorized attempts to terminate, stop, or access Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) or Antivirus agent processes. This is identified by monitoring command-line utilities like taskkill, net, and sc targeting known security service names, as well as detecting suspicious cross-process access (e.g., OpenProcess) by unauthorized processes targeting security agent PIDs.
Detects a sequence of events indicative of LSASS memory dumping followed by lateral movement via SMB administrative shares. The rule monitors for suspicious OpenProcess calls targeting lsass.exe, the subsequent creation of dump files in temporary directories, and concurrent access to admin shares (ADMIN$ or C$) from the same host, which is a common pattern for credential harvesting and lateral movement tools like 'lsassy'.
Detects local privilege escalation attempts targeting AnyDesk by exploiting COM object registration. The attack involves registering a malicious COM server in HKCU to intercept the AnyDesk service's interaction with the print pipe, followed by process token impersonation to gain SYSTEM privileges. The rule monitors for unauthorized COM registration, anomalous process execution from AnyDesk, and cross-process access.
Detects potential cross-process memory injection activity by monitoring for a non-debugger process that performs both NtAllocateVirtualMemory and WriteProcessMemory operations against a sensitive GUI target process within a short 5-minute correlation window.
Detects unauthorized cross-process memory access attempts targeting the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (lsass.exe). Such attempts are commonly associated with credential dumping techniques to extract credentials from memory.
Detects process access requests to the LSASS process with specific call trace calls and access masks.
This behaviour is expressed by many credential dumping tools such as Mimikatz, NanoDump, Invoke-Mimikatz, Procdump and even the Taskmgr dumping feature.
This behaviour is expressed by many credential dumping tools such as Mimikatz, NanoDump, Invoke-Mimikatz, Procdump and even the Taskmgr dumping feature.
Detects suspicious OpenProcess calls initiated by common user applications (explorer.exe, winword.exe, outlook.exe) targeting svchost.exe, followed by an outbound network connection from the target svchost.exe to the file sharing service filen.io within a 30-minute window. This behavior is indicative of process injection used to facilitate network communication or data exfiltration under the guise of a system process.
Detects APC injection technique using QueueUserAPC for code execution
Detects LSASS process memory access for credential dumping
Detects unauthorized attempts to access or dump the memory of the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) process to harvest credentials. This rule covers known credential dumping tools like Pillager and Procdump, the abuse of built-in Windows diagnostic tools like comsvcs.dll, and Mimikatz-style credential harvesting commands (e.g., sekurlsa). It also includes a generic detection for suspicious processes attempting to open a handle to lsass.exe.
Detects attempts by processes, such as Python or PyInstaller-compiled binaries, to perform in-memory patching of the 'EtwEventWrite' function within 'ntdll.dll'. This technique is used to bypass Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) and suppress security telemetry, a tactic observed in campaigns like Glove Stealer.
Detects potential malicious activity including unsigned processes performing cross-process injection into common system processes, suspicious sideloading of 'vulkan-1.dll' from non-standard locations, and execution of unsigned binaries from user-writable directories like Temp, AppData, or ProgramData.
This rule detects instances where a process attempts to open a handle to itself with high-privilege access rights (e.g., PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS, PROCESS_VM_WRITE, PROCESS_VM_OPERATION). This behavior is often indicative of self-injection, a technique used by malicious code to modify its own memory space or inject shellcode, evading detection and bypassing certain security controls.
Detects evidence of process hollowing and injection techniques associated with the TA4922 (Silver Fox) threat actor. The rule monitors for three primary indicators: remote thread creation into common target processes (svchost, explorer, etc.) by non-system images, process access with high privilege handles (0x1fffff/0x1f3fff) targeting those same processes, and the execution of system binaries from non-standard filesystem locations.
