This rule detects the use of 'wmic.exe' with the '/format' switch to execute XSL files, or the direct execution of 'msxsl.exe'. These methods are common techniques used by adversaries to bypass security controls by executing arbitrary scripts embedded within XSL files, often fetched from remote locations or local paths.

Detects the use of the Windows attrib.exe utility to set the hidden file attribute (+h) on files. Adversaries often use this technique to hide malicious files, scripts, or directories from standard file browsing tools to evade detection. The rule includes an exclusion for processes signed by Microsoft to reduce noise from legitimate system operations.

Detects BPFDoor-style iptables NAT REDIRECT rules used to tunnel traffic from a
legitimate service port to a high ephemeral shell port (42391-43390) without
disrupting the real service for other clients. BPFDoor activates on magic packets, spawns a
bind shell, inserts short-lived PREROUTING redirects for the controller IP, then deletes them.
