20,501 detections

Detects instances where a process deletes its own executable or script file within 15 seconds of being launched. This behavior is often associated with self-modifying implants, transient scripts, or malicious artifacts attempting to minimize their footprint on the host system immediately after execution.

This rule detects the installation or presence of ten identified malicious npm packages associated with the indexed-btree/sorted-btree typosquatting campaign. It monitors command-line activity for 'npm install' commands, package name resolution, and entries within 'package.json' files.

Detects usage of the 'finger' utility via command line within scripts or batch files, or network connections originating from the 'finger' process on port 79 to non-internal destinations. This activity is commonly associated with internal network reconnaissance to gather user information or system details.

This rule detects potentially malicious child processes spawned by Visual Studio Code (Code.exe) when using VS Code tasks (tasks.json). It identifies suspicious CLI arguments often associated with downloading, executing, or obfuscating scripts (e.g., PowerShell, curl, python, mshta) that are not part of standard development workflows like npm, yarn, or git, which are explicitly filtered out as noise.

This rule detects suspicious clipboard access attempts initiated by common scripting interpreters (node.exe, python.exe, powershell.exe) in non-standard paths or correlated with recent external network connections. It is designed to identify potential credential theft or data staging using clipboard interaction methods often employed by malware.

Detects the execution of 'charmap.exe' from the Syswow64 directory where the process hierarchy indicates suspicious activity. The detection identifies a chain where PowerShell spawns 'conhost.exe', which in turn spawns a process from a temporary directory (interpreted as a renamed AutoIT executable) that then launches 'charmap.exe'. This pattern is indicative of a multi-stage obfuscated execution flow often used in malware dropper scenarios to bypass standard monitoring.

Detects delivery and execution artifacts associated with the BlueMoon CVE-2026-85046 V8 type-confusion exploit. The rule monitors for known exploit-related file names (e.g., driver-html.js) and characteristic string indicators (e.g., v8ctf_exp_attempt, addrof, fakeobj) across file system, process execution, and network telemetry.

This rule monitors for indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with a specific AutoIT-based malware delivery chain. It tracks the execution and presence of specific malicious file names and SHA256 hashes, as well as network connections to a identified command-and-control (C2) infrastructure IP address (158.51.122.136). The detection spans file creation, process execution, image loading, and network communication events to identify the multi-stage attack lifecycle.

Detects instances where the process 'GRrte.exe' forcefully terminates 'iediagcmd.exe' using taskkill.exe. This activity is indicative of an attempt to disable or impair specific security diagnostic tools or EDR-related components on the host.

This rule monitors for execution of files with specific SHA256 hashes known to be malicious, and network connections to a known malicious domain associated with Vultr storage. It aggregates file creation, process execution, and network connection events to detect potential threat activity.

This rule detects when common web server service accounts (e.g., www-data, apache) spawn Unix shell processes (sh, bash, dash) to execute system enumeration commands like 'id' or 'whoami'. This activity is often a sign of post-exploitation behavior following successful web application exploitation, where an attacker attempts to determine their context and privileges on the compromised host.

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.

Detects anomalous staging activity associated with the 'PPPoEject' exploit. The rule identifies the creation of GRE or IP6GRE interfaces on bonding devices immediately preceding or concurrent with FUSE filesystem mounting or I/O activity. This pattern matches the exploitation workflow of racing pppoe_sendmsg() skb reallocation via dev_hard_header() to achieve privilege escalation.

Detects a sequence of events where a process within a container namespace attempts to interact with the host filesystem (e.g., /proc/1/root, nsenter) followed shortly by an unexpected gain of root privileges or execution of setuid(0) that is not associated with legitimate su or sudo usage.

Detects anomalous process execution patterns involving netkit devices and virtual network interfaces (VXLAN/OVS) configured with oversized headroom, characteristic of the TUNderflow (CVE-2026-81000) exploitation chain. The rule monitors for the staging of netkit devices and specific OVS command-line interactions by non-privileged accounts, excluding known legitimate SDN and CNI infrastructure management processes.

Detects a suspected exploitation attempt of CVE-2026-81000, known as TUNderflow. The detection looks for a sequence of events where a process initializes a user namespace (unshare) followed by a kernel panic or error report from the tun/tap driver originating from the same process lineage within a short timeframe, which is indicative of an integer overflow exploit leading to kernel instability.

This rule detects kernel-level stability issues or crashes (ah6/ipsec related) occurring immediately after the execution of processes that create new user namespaces (unshare, clone with CLONE_NEWUSER). This pattern is often associated with exploitation of kernel vulnerabilities, where namespace manipulation is a prerequisite for triggering a crash or privilege escalation.

Detects the execution of the Linux 'unshare' utility to create new namespaces (user or network). This command is often used as a primitive for container escapes or privilege escalation by allowing an unprivileged user to create isolated environments. The rule excludes common container management and virtualization tools to reduce noise.
