Detects the use of msiexec.exe to execute installation commands specifically involving Visual C++ Redistributable DLLs (vcredist_x64.dll or vcredist_x86.dll) with quiet installation flags. This behavior may indicate an attempt to bundle or install dependencies via msiexec to proxy execution.

Detects a sequence of events where a non-root user attempts to manipulate kernel components (specifically involving xfrm/esp modules via ip or modprobe) followed immediately by a sudo or su command, suggesting an attempt to load malicious kernel modules or exploit kernel vulnerabilities to escalate privileges.

Detects the execution of Dropbear SSH binaries (dropbear, dropbearkey, dropbearmulti) on identified OT, ICS, or SCADA assets. The rule flags suspicious configurations such as the use of non-standard ports (2222, 44818), remote port forwarding, or running in the foreground, which may indicate unauthorized remote access or tunneling on sensitive operational technology infrastructure.

Identifies post-exploitation reverse shells resulting from the LiteLLM RCE vulnerabilities. The rule looks for processes initiated by 'litellm' (either directly or via python running litellm) that then spawn child processes with common reverse shell command line patterns such as 'bash -i', '/dev/tcp/', 'nc -e', or 'sh -i'.

Detects the execution of known LLMNR, NBT-NS, and SMB relaying tools such as Responder, Inveigh, and MultiRelay, or the use of their specific command-line arguments, which are commonly used by adversaries for adversary-in-the-middle attacks to capture or relay authentication material.

Detects the execution of ClickOnce applications (via dfsvc.exe, rundll32.exe with dfshim.dll, or by opening .application/.appref-ms files) that are being launched from a remote web or file share source. This behavior is a common technique for proxying malicious code execution.

Detects suspicious execution of command-line utilities (cmd, powershell, pwsh) spawned by Windows Explorer (explorer.exe). The rule flags processes with long command lines or those containing evidence of obfuscation (Base64 encoding) or common command-line indicators used for weaponized scripts, such as download requests or expression invocation.

Detects the execution of known Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tools from common user-writable or temporary directories (Temp, Downloads, AppData, Public). The rule further filters for processes commonly abused for payload delivery and command execution (powershell.exe, cmd.exe, wscript.exe), or processes containing typical obfuscation and download indicators, excluding benign system process initiators.

Detects potential abuse of Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) by monitoring for suspicious command-line activity from 'certreq.exe' and 'certutil.exe' associated with certificate enrollment, submission, or management. It also identifies the staging of certificate-related files (.pem, .pfx, .p12, .crt, .cer, .key) in common user directories.

Detects multiple executions of wscript.exe or cscript.exe within an hour that involve command-line arguments containing business-related keywords (e.g., Invoice, Payment) and script extensions (.vbs or .vbe). This behavior is often indicative of automated malware staging, such as malicious macro-enabled documents spawning script engines.

Detects post-exploitation persistence activity following a DirtyClone (CVE-2026-43503) privilege escalation. The rule monitors for the creation of local user accounts via binaries like useradd and usermod, as well as unauthorized modifications to sensitive Linux configuration files such as /etc/sudoers or /etc/shadow, specifically when executed with root-level privileges.

Detects high-frequency non-standard process executions involving WMI queries that specifically target virtual environment artifacts (e.g., VMware, VirtualBox, VBoxService, QEMU). This behavior is characteristic of sandbox or virtualization evasion, where malware attempts to identify if it is running in a virtualized or analysis environment to potentially alter its behavior.

Detects instances where package managers like npm, pip, or python execute shells or scripting interpreters with command-line arguments indicative of software installation or build processes. This pattern is common in supply chain attacks where malicious packages run code during their installation phase.

Detects usage of the WinRAR utility (rar.exe) with command-line arguments indicative of file archival, specifically using flags commonly associated with automated data collection or suspicious staging patterns such as password-protected archives (-hp) or specific file paths like 'web.rar' or those within VMware directories.
