Detects the creation of a scheduled task using the 'schtasks.exe' utility where the task name is 'MultiUpdater' and the task definition is imported from a file with a specific naming convention and extension (mgk, tmp, or xml) in the root directory.
Detects the execution of PowerShell with command-line arguments that suggest programmatically capturing or redirecting console output using ScriptBlock techniques (Create, Console, In, ReadToEnd). This pattern is often associated with obfuscated script execution, in-memory payloads, or attempts to bypass logging by capturing output via .NET streams.
Detects the execution of rundll32.exe with a command line referencing a DLL file stored in the C:\ProgramData directory. This pattern is commonly used by adversaries to execute malicious code while masquerading as legitimate system activity, particularly when initiated by command shell or browser processes.
Detects instances where browser processes (Chrome or Edge) are spawned by smartscreen.exe and subsequently access sensitive browser storage files such as Login Data, Cookies, or Local State. This pattern is indicative of a process injection or masquerading chain used to extract credentials or session data.
Detects instances where Python interpreters (python.exe or pythonw.exe) are executed from a subdirectory within ProgramData that matches a 32-hex character pattern, initiated by the 7zip archive utility (7za.exe). This pattern is indicative of a self-extracting archive or malicious installer unpacking and executing Python scripts in a stealthy, non-standard location.
Detects the execution of files related to 'UBPPatch' or 'HTSPnew', specifically looking for PowerShell scripts (.psh) or executables (.exe) that match these potentially non-standard or obfuscated update/patch filenames. The rule also looks for command lines referencing 'Update.Lst', often associated with custom or unauthorized patch mechanisms.
Detects the execution of suspicious binaries from the user's AppData Local Temp directory, often associated with AutoIt scripting or similar automation tools that utilize configuration (.ini) files to drive malicious activity.
Detects the execution of suspicious binaries from the user's AppData Local Temp directory, often associated with AutoIt scripting or similar automation tools that utilize configuration (.ini) files to drive malicious activity.
Detects the creation of a .bat file in the Windows Startup directory, followed by the execution of a command process from a temporary location using a specific command line pattern. This behavior is indicative of persistent malware or a dropper attempting to execute an initial payload upon user logon.
Detects the invocation of the C# compiler (csc.exe) by PowerShell, where the command line includes specific references to .cmdline files. This pattern is commonly used in fileless execution techniques to compile and execute malicious code in memory after delivery.
Detects MSBuild.exe establishing a network connection to a specific remote IP address (212.34.141.103) on port 4521. This behavior is indicative of MSBuild being used to proxy execution of malicious code, often associated with downloading and executing second-stage payloads or beaconing to a command-and-control (C2) server.
Detects suspicious execution of the certutil.exe utility for file operations, specifically targeting the copying of certutil or the decoding of files with naming patterns (kid*.exe, kid*.tmp, kid*.bat) within the \Users\Public\Downloads\ directory. This pattern is commonly associated with file staging and deobfuscation of malicious payloads.
This rule detects attempts to query or access the MachineGuid registry key located in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography. This registry key is commonly used to uniquely identify a Windows installation and is frequently targeted by malicious software to perform system identification or fingerprinting.
Detects the use of PowerShell script interpreters that utilize .NET runtime methods, such as 'RunspaceFactory' and 'CreateRunspace', to dynamically create and execute scripts, pipelines, or invoke methods. This technique is often used by fileless malware and offensive security tools to bypass traditional command-line logging by interacting directly with the System.Management.Automation assembly.
Detects ClickFix-style social engineering attacks where users are lured to 'cloudrobots.cloud' and subsequently execute malicious commands via Windows shell tools (cmd, powershell, mshta, etc.). The rule correlates browser network events to a specific domain, subsequent process launches by explorer.exe, and suspicious registry modifications associated with the Windows RunMRU, which is often abused to store and execute commands pasted by victims.
This rule detects the execution of a specific MSI package identified by its filename and hash (MD5/SHA256). The rule monitors 'msiexec.exe' process executions and alerts when the process command line or file hash matches a known malicious indicator.
Detects instances where a process named 'updater.exe' launches another process also named 'updater.exe'. This pattern can indicate suspicious activity where a legitimate updater process is being misused or abused to spawn additional malicious code or side-load components.
Detects attempts to bypass the Antimalware Scan Interface (AMSI) in PowerShell by using reflection to modify the 'amsiInitFailed' field within the 'AmsiUtils' class. This technique is commonly used by malicious scripts to disable AMSI scanning during their execution.
Detects suspicious PowerShell command lines that utilize both 'Invoke-Expression' (iex) and 'Invoke-RestMethod' (irm), often used to download and execute code directly from remote sources. The rule specifically monitors for known indicators like specific IP addresses, file paths, or the concurrent use of these cmdlets in a single command line.
Detects the creation of a shortcut (.lnk) file within the Windows startup folder using PowerShell. The rule monitors for PowerShell processes executing commands to create .lnk files (e.g., via WScript.Shell) or directly monitors file creation events targeting the startup directory. This behavior is indicative of malicious persistence mechanisms.
Detects the addition of exclusion paths to Microsoft Defender via PowerShell (Add-MpPreference or Set-MpPreference) initiated by non-Microsoft signed processes or specific messaging applications. This behavior is often indicative of malware attempting to exclude malicious payloads from security scanning.
