Detects the execution of multiple distinct host reconnaissance commands (e.g., systeminfo, whoami, ipconfig, AV/EDR checks, and domain enumeration) within a short window (10 minutes) originating from the same parent process. This pattern is characteristic of automated reconnaissance collection, often performed during the initial phases of an attack or as part of a C2 workflow. The rule includes exclusions for common administrative, monitoring, and RMM tools to reduce false positives.

The rule includes exclusions for common administrative, monitoring, and RMM tools to reduce false positives.
Detects the execution of PowerShell with suspicious command-line arguments (hidden window, no profile, or encoded commands) spawned directly from a web browser process (e.g., Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Explorer). This behavior is characteristic of ClickFix-style social engineering attacks where a user is tricked into copying and executing malicious PowerShell commands via the Win+R Run dialog or terminal.
Detects instances where npm.exe or node.exe initiate child node.exe processes, a behavior commonly associated with multi-stage loaders or malicious packages (e.g., GHAPPIER) that execute arbitrary JavaScript payloads during package installation or execution.
Detects the creation of specific file artifacts and process execution associated with the PIVOTPIPE .NET loader. The rule monitors for the creation of temporary working directories prefixed with 'nb_' in '\Windows\Temp\', the staging of associated configuration and payload files (such as 'agent.json', 'pk.der', 'sleepmask.o', 'core.pak'), and the execution of associated process names like 'netbeacon_pivot.exe', 'pivot_hop2_kasp.exe', or 'x64beacon.exe'.
Detects PowerShell execution containing multiple command-line arguments indicative of environment discovery, such as checking system uptime, hardware specifications, or specific memory-related delays. These patterns are commonly used by malware to detect virtual machines, sandboxes, or analysis environments to alter execution or exit.
Detects suspicious PowerShell activity involving compression commands (e.g., Expand-Archive) within APPDATA, correlated with the execution of hypersnap.exe with hidden window arguments, and the creation of persistence via scheduled tasks. This pattern is indicative of automated staging or malicious tool execution and persistence setup.
Detects the execution of rundll32.exe from a WebDAV network path ('@\DavWWWRoot\') where specific suspicious substrings (e.g., 'verification.google', 'pf.ch', 'moor', 'CfgInspectModuleData') are present in the command line. This pattern is commonly associated with the execution of remote payloads or malicious DLLs to bypass security controls.
Detects process execution patterns and DNS requests associated with the GHAPPIER malware staging infrastructure. The rule monitors for specific command-line arguments involving known malicious scripts, temporary files, and deployment infrastructure (e.g., Vercel) often used for delivering or executing malicious payloads via node.js environments.
Detects a process that deletes its own executable file immediately after launching. This anti-forensic behavior is commonly utilized by remote access trojans (RATs) and other malware to minimize their footprint and evade file-based forensic analysis.
Detects the execution of rundll32.exe with a command line containing 'DavWWWRoot', indicating the loading of a DLL payload directly from a remote WebDAV share. This behavior is commonly associated with ClickFix/ClearFake infection chains where users are tricked into executing malicious payloads hosted on attacker-controlled WebDAV servers.
Detects the execution of the 'sckit' Go implant, a malicious binary associated with trojanized '@memtensor/memos-cloud-openclaw-plugin' or 'MemoryOS' packages. The rule identifies instances where this binary is spawned as a child process of a language runtime (Node.js or Python) when the execution originates from specific directory paths associated with these packages, or when the parent process command line indicates these packages are being initialized.

Detects the execution of known PIVOTPIPE beacon binaries by matching against specific file names and SHA256 hashes. These binaries are associated with post-exploitation activities and internal network pivoting.
Detects the execution of known PIVOTPIPE RAT binary files based on their SHA256 hashes or file names. PIVOTPIPE RAT is capable of token manipulation and impersonation techniques (e.g., ImpersonateLoggedOnUser, DuplicateTokenEx) to perform privileged operations or escalate security context.
Detects the Cursor IDE application launching specific macOS system binaries ('SystemUpdate', 'iSync', 'loginwindow') that are potentially being used to execute hidden backdoors, often associated with the 'FLATROOF' or 'ROOFDECK' threats. The rule looks for process spawning behavior where Cursor initiates these binaries with specific suspicious command-line flags ('nohup', '--type=renderer') or in directories associated with known malicious activity.
Detects instances where npm processes (install, preinstall, or postinstall) spawn suspicious child processes such as shell interpreters (cmd, powershell, bash, sh), network utilities (curl, wget), or scripting interpreters (python). This behavior is often associated with malicious npm package installation or software supply chain compromise where post-install scripts are used to gain persistence or download secondary payloads.
Detects network beaconing activity from suspicious processes that masquerade as macOS system services, specifically filtered to only trigger when an active Cursor IDE session is detected on the host. This behavior correlates network-based C2 activity with an active development environment, potentially indicating an adversary using legitimate IDE sessions to blend in or exfiltrate development-related data.
Detects the execution of PowerShell with hidden window arguments from explorer.exe, typically indicative of ClickFix social engineering where a user is tricked into pasting malicious commands into the Windows Run dialog.
Detects anomalous process execution where a non-privileged process spawns a child process with root/SYSTEM (uid 0) privileges without passing through recognized elevation binaries (e.g., sudo, su, pkexec). This behavior is consistent with post-exploitation privilege escalation techniques, such as exploiting hijacked file descriptors or callback structures to gain root authority.
This rule detects the execution of known lateral movement tools, including Impacket suite components and NetExec (formerly CrackMapExec), by monitoring process command lines. It specifically flags tools such as psexec.py, wmiexec.py, and secretsdump.py, which are frequently used for remote execution and credential dumping. The rule also joins these process events with network events targeting SMB port 445 to correlate tool usage with potential lateral movement activity.
