The following analytic detects the use of the crontab command with the list parameter (-l) to enumerate scheduled tasks configured in the invoking user's crontab on Linux systems.
Adversaries may use this information to identify persistence mechanisms, scheduled execution, or potential privilege escalation opportunities.
The use of crontab -l is also common administrative activity and may require tuning based on the executing user, parent process, and environment.

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.
Detects the disabling of host-based firewalls (Windows Filtering Platform/Advanced Firewall, iptables, or nftables) via command-line tools. The rule excludes common management tools, system accounts, and events where the firewall is re-enabled within a short timeframe, effectively filtering for potentially unauthorized attempts to impair security defenses.
Detects the placement of potentially malicious executable or script files onto a network share followed by the execution of that specific file path from a different host within a short timeframe. This behavior is indicative of lateral movement using tainted shared content.

Detects potential remote service session hijacking by monitoring for RDP session ID reuse by a different user or unauthorized SSH session reattachment (e.g., tmux/screen hijacking). It correlates logon events with process execution to identify instances where an existing session is accessed by an account other than the original owner, while excluding legitimate service/support account activity.
Detects msiexec.exe executing from the Temp directory with suspicious command-line arguments (such as hidden windows) and spawning child processes like cmd.exe, tasklist.exe, or taskkill.exe. This behavior is often indicative of malicious installation scripts attempting to perform discovery or terminate security processes while remaining stealthy.
Detects the loading of the somkernl.dll module by 360speedld.exe or SoftupNotify.exe, or the execution of these binaries. These files are associated with 360 Safe/360 Security software components, and this rule monitors for their specific activity patterns, which may be used to identify software presence or potential process hollowing/masquerading attempts involving these legitimate components.
Detects anomalous remote interactive or network logons where the specific account and remote host/IP combination has not been observed in the previous 14 days. The rule correlates these new login events with subsequent process execution on the destination host within a short window (5 minutes) to identify potential lateral movement where an adversary uses valid credentials to log in and immediately execute commands.
This rule detects potentially malicious activity associated with removable media (USB drives) by identifying two distinct patterns: first, the creation of an 'autorun.inf' file on a removable drive followed by the execution of a script or executable from that same drive shortly after. Second, it identifies executables appearing on removable media that are launched across multiple distinct hosts within a one-hour window, which may indicate worm-like spreading or mass-malware distribution via portable storage.
Detects potential remote code execution (RCE) attempts targeting vulnerable Sub-Store instances (versions < 2.38.2). The detection identifies web browsers making network connections to local ports (38324) associated with Sub-Store, followed by the spawning of shell processes (cmd, powershell, bash, sh) by the Node.js process hosting the application.
Detects evidence of persistence mechanisms associated with the StyleSmuggler implant. The rule monitors for malicious crontab entries and file system activity related to gvfsd-user, .gvfsd, and /tmp/.kw_ artifacts.
This rule detects potential lateral movement activity by identifying executable or script files being written to administrative shares (C$ or ADMIN$) followed by the execution of a file with the same name on the destination device within 15 minutes. It includes logic to filter out known deployment/patch management service accounts and file names to reduce noise.

The detection rule identifies an suspicious process named 'msgbox.exe' attempting to interact with browser configuration files ('Secure Preferences') and activity directories ('stomp_ext'), while simultaneously invoking browser processes ('chrome.exe' or 'msedge.exe') with the '--restore-last-session' argument. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to force-load a browser session or hijack browser state, potentially to steal session cookies or credentials.
Detects the PoisonedRefresh implant's UNIX domain socket backdoor by (1) file activity on the uniquely-named /run/bigtlog.pipe socket initiated by an Apache/httpd process, and (2) process command lines containing the implant's hardcoded authentication token. Removed the earlier generic 'bash spawned by httpd' heuristic, which fired on legitimate CGI/mod_php/admin automation that shells out from the web server and was the dominant false-positive source.
Detects attempts to inhibit system recovery by deleting volume shadow copies or modifying backup/boot recovery configurations. The rule monitors for the execution of vssadmin, wmic, wbadmin, and bcdedit with flags known to facilitate system recovery inhibition, often observed as a precursor to ransomware activity.

Detects the installation or execution of known remote access tools (RMM) from suspicious parent processes (browsers, archives) or from user-writable directories (Temp, Downloads). This behavior is characteristic of initial access and staging activities performed by ransomware operators or Initial Access Brokers (IABs). The rule excludes known IT-managed deployment paths and signed binaries used by the organization.
This rule detects the creation of a scheduled task named 'GlobalProtectVPNUpdate' using schtasks.exe, which has been identified as a technique used to facilitate the execution of malicious payloads masquerading as legitimate GlobalProtect VPN components. It also monitors for the subsequent execution of 'GlobalProtect.exe' when initiated by Windows background services like taskeng.exe or svchost.exe, which is indicative of persistence and unauthorized code execution.
Detects the invocation of the AppInstaller executable to install .msix packages, often used in software installation or malicious delivery scenarios involving application deployment.
