Detects the use of chmod, chown, or chattr to modify file permissions on paths related to backup (Acronis) or hosting management (cPanel, WHM, Plesk) software. Specifically monitors for command-line arguments indicating a change to world-writable permissions (e.g., 777, o+w, a+rwx) on sensitive configuration files.

This rule detects scenarios where a web server process or control panel utility (such as cPanel or Plesk) appears to initiate a shell process (sh, bash, dash) as the root user. This behavior is highly indicative of a compromise where an attacker has achieved command execution in an elevated context following an exploit against a web application or control panel interface.

003
Detects a suspicious scenario where a non-root process associated with Acronis backup plugins (typically used on cPanel, WHM, or Plesk servers) spawns a child process that executes with root privileges. This behavior is indicative of potential privilege escalation exploiting CVE-2026-87886.

003
Detects the use of chmod or chown commands to modify permissions or ownership of files associated with Acronis backup plugins within cPanel, WHM, or Plesk environments. This activity is indicative of potential unauthorized manipulation or exploitation of the backup configuration, such as that associated with CVE-2026-87886.

Detects the execution of native Windows administrative utilities (vssadmin, wmic, bcdedit, wbadmin) used by the Monkey ransomware C++ variant to delete volume shadow copies, clear the backup catalog, and disable system recovery boot policies. This activity is a characteristic precursor to data encryption.

This rule monitors for a collection of adversarial behaviors on Windows systems, including persistence mechanisms via scheduled tasks and registry run keys, tampering with security services (VSS, Windows Defender), credential harvesting attempts (LSASS memory), log and history clearing, and external network communication to known IP geolocation services.

Detects command-line activity indicating an attempt to interact with or abuse the Docker socket (/var/run/docker.sock) for container escape. Such activity is often observed in post-compromise scenarios, such as ransomware attacks where an adversary attempts to break out of a containerized application to gain control of the underlying host.

Detects command-line activity associated with Monkey ransomware, specifically attempts to bypass AMSI (patching AmsiScanBuffer, targeting AmsiUtils), disable ETW (Event Tracing for Windows) monitoring, and add Microsoft Defender exclusions to evade detection prior to encryption.

Detects anomalous process execution (cmd.exe or powershell.exe) initiated by PaperCut application server processes (pc-app.exe or java.exe), followed immediately by the modification of the 'Domain Admins' group membership. This behavior is indicative of potential post-exploitation privilege escalation activity following a successful PaperCut authentication bypass.

This rule detects a sequence of suspicious activities involving files placed in 'ProgramData\Firefox'. It identifies the creation or modification of a non-standard executable within this folder, followed by its execution by a trusted process (or itself), and the subsequent creation of a Registry run key for persistence. This pattern is often used by adversaries for persistence mechanism implementation using masqueraded file names.

Detects instances where browser processes or related credential files are accessed or targeted by process termination (e.g., taskkill.exe) followed by attempts to access sensitive files like Login Data, logins.json, or key4.db. This pattern is indicative of credential theft from web browsers.

Detects the execution of known development, scripting, and administrative tools (e.g., Python, Node.js, GCC, Docker) from non-standard or unauthorized file paths. The rule leverages allowlists for process names, publishers, and trusted installation directories to identify potentially unauthorized usage of powerful tooling often abused by attackers for post-exploitation activities.
