Detects the execution of PowerShell with encoded commands, specifically when initiated by a 'conhost.exe' process running with the '--headless' flag. The rule further inspects the decoded command to identify patterns indicative of .NET reflection-based code execution, often used in malicious activity such as reflective assembly loading.

Detects the execution of 'bun' during a Node.js package installation process (npm or node). This behavior can be indicative of a supply chain attack where malicious actors attempt to leverage alternative runtimes during the 'preinstall' phase or package installation to execute arbitrary code or bypass security controls typically associated with standard Node.js installations.

Detects uncommon or suspicious child processes spawning from a WSL process. This could indicate an attempt to evade parent/child relationship detections or persistence attempts via cron using WSL.

This rule detects potential execution of malicious files from removable media (e.g., USB drives). It monitors for a sequence of events where a removable drive is mounted, a file is subsequently created on that drive, and then that same file is executed within a short time window.

This rule detects suspicious command executions (e.g., whoami, downloadstring, iex, registry modifications) initiated by processes associated with the CrowdStrike Falcon agent. It also correlates these executions with the loading of unsigned or unverifiable DLLs by the same Falcon processes within a 5-minute window, which may indicate attempts to tamper with or masquerade as the security agent.

004
Detects suspicious activities originating from CrowdStrike Falcon remediation processes (e.g., CSFalconService.exe, CSFalconContainer.exe). The rule identifies two distinct patterns: either a file operation (delete, modify, rename, quarantine, or restore) followed within 2 minutes by the loading of an unsigned or non-standard DLL, or the spawning of an elevated SYSTEM process from a non-SYSTEM parent process. This behavior is indicative of potential LPE (Local Privilege Escalation) abuse via the Falcon remediation engine, often referred to as FalconFlank-style exploitation.

Detects execution patterns associated with 'NinjaMare' style malware, where a process masquerading as a browser (e.g., tenbrowser.exe, fireflybrowser.exe) performs an external IP geolocation lookup followed by suspicious registry or file modifications indicative of browser hijacking or extension installation within a five-minute window.

This rule detects the execution of processes or network connections that impersonate 'WhatsApp' or 'Instagram' companion applications. It identifies specific file names and process command lines that mimic these applications, often associated with browser-launched or malicious payloads, and monitors for associated network traffic directed toward suspicious endpoints like herokuapp domains.

This rule detects suspicious process execution originating from web server applications (e.g., php-fpm, apache2, nginx). It looks for common shell interpreters or command-line utilities (e.g., bash, curl, python) triggered by these web server processes when they contain command execution function strings in their command lines (e.g., system, shell_exec, passthru), which is a common indicator of web shell activity or post-exploitation command execution.

Detects anomalous activity originating from PostgreSQL processes, including the spawning of shells (cmd, powershell, sh, bash), access to sensitive files (e.g., /etc/shadow, SSH keys), and file creation outside the standard PostgreSQL data directories, which is consistent with the abuse of SQL functionality like pg_read_file() or lo_export().

This rule detects potential command and control (C2) activity associated with the CurlRAT malware. It monitors for both the execution of 'curl' or 'curl.exe' processes with command lines containing known C2 domains, and network traffic originating from internal devices directed toward those same domains.

Detects the execution of processes named 'ProManager.exe' or 'ProManagerServicedc894.exe', which may be indicative of unauthorized software or potentially malicious activity.

Detects the execution of PowerShell commands that utilize base64-encoded strings, window style arguments for obfuscation, and subsequent decoding to reveal suspicious indicators such as network downloading commands or archive manipulation, indicative of potential fileless malware staging.

Detects the execution of 'famitrf2.exe' when it is launched as a child process of 'rserver3.exe' from the specific path 'C:\intel\rserver\rserver3.exe'. This pattern is highly indicative of Remote Administrator (RAdmin) software activity, which can be leveraged for legitimate remote management or malicious remote access.

This rule detects potentially malicious activity involving the manipulation of Windows services using 'sc.exe' to stop or delete services, combined with the forceful termination of 'svchost.exe' processes via 'wmic.exe'. This pattern is often associated with adversaries attempting to disable security tools, logging agents, or other defensive mechanisms on an endpoint.

This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with or bypass Windows Defender by monitoring for files or processes named 'ShieldCrash' occurring in close temporal proximity to the creation or modification of files within Windows Defender's shadow or scan directories (BaseNamedObjects\Restricted\WD_SHADOW_ or WD_SCAN). This behavior is often associated with malware attempting to evade security detection.

Detects suspicious PowerShell execution initiated by explorer.exe containing encoded commands, correlated with concurrent activity in the Windows RunMRU registry key or execution of rundll32.exe referencing 'WindowsUpdate.log'. This pattern is frequently used to mask malicious activity and maintain stealth during fileless execution or persistence operations.

Detects execution of rundll32.exe with command-line arguments involving 'DavWWWRoot' and external domains ('pf.ch' or 'verification.google'), which is characteristic of attempts to force remote WebDAV authentication or execute malicious code via network-hosted resources.

Detects a sequence of suspicious behaviors on a single host within a 1-hour window, indicative of an adversary establishing a foothold and preparing for malicious activity. The pattern involves: 1) System architecture discovery, 2) Downloading files from an external IP address, 3) Changing permissions of files in temporary directories (e.g., /tmp, /var/tmp, /dev/shm), and 4) Executing files directly from those same temporary directories.

Detects anomalous command-line arguments and process injection behaviors associated with the Sogou IME protocol handler (biz_helper.exe). The rule monitors for malicious argument injection (e.g., embedded scripts, URLs pointing to non-Sogou domains) and correlates these events with suspicious child processes or network activity, consistent with techniques observed in the GRAYRABBIT / UNC3569 threat activity.
