Detects indicators of the BUMSRAKETE exploit, specifically looking for malicious binary names, staging files, and a high-frequency loop pattern involving SUID binaries (su, passwd) by unprivileged users. This pattern is consistent with a kTLS page-cache corruption exploit targeting CVE-2026-45257.
This rule detects potential lateral movement and privilege escalation activity associated with the SPECTRALVIPER framework. It identifies suspicious process launch events where method names indicative of token manipulation (e.g., StealToken, MakeToken, Impersonate_ThisThread) are present in the command line, or where the OneDrive Sync Service process is used as an indicator of this specific activity.
Detects potential token manipulation attacks using SMB loopback connections. The rule identifies processes executing with privileges commonly associated with token impersonation (SeImpersonatePrivilege, SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege) or running as SYSTEM that are not expected system processes, correlated with an SMB network connection to the local loopback address on port 445.
Detects post-exploitation activities on SD-WAN appliances, including unauthorized tenant list uploads related to CVE-2026-20245, creation of unauthorized 'troot' accounts in sensitive system files, staging of system files, unauthorized permission modifications via chmod/chown, and privilege escalation attempts using su.
Detects indicators of exploitation related to CVE-2026-20245 on Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN controllers, including malicious tenant CSV uploads, unauthorized account creation (troot), privilege escalation via su, anti-forensic backup of system configuration files, and configuration changes such as PermitRootLogin enabled.
This rule detects two scenarios on Linux systems: 1. A non-root process interacting with a root process (e.g., cross-process communication where the source is non-root and the target is root). 2. Any process (excluding root) exhibiting indicators related to 'AF_ALG' or 'splice', or mentioning 'CVE-2026-31431' in its name or description. These indicators are often associated with privilege escalation attempts or kernel exploits.
Detects the post-exploitation pattern associated with the DirtyClone (CVE-2026-43503) vulnerability, where a non-root process executes '/usr/bin/su' with the '-c /bin/sh' argument, resulting in a spawned shell running with root privileges. This behavior is indicative of an in-memory patch to the su binary's page cache, allowing for unauthorized privilege escalation without modifying the on-disk binary or triggering standard PAM authentication events.
Detects signs of access token manipulation and impersonation, including the use of 'runas' with saved credentials, suspicious PowerShell API calls for identity management, usage of known token-manipulation tools (e.g., incognito), and reconnaissance using 'whoami /priv'. These activities are indicative of privilege escalation attempts or lateral movement.
Detects the creation of suspicious named pipes by low-privilege processes, which is a technique used by local privilege escalation tools (like PrintSpoofer, RoguePotato, and GodPotato) to intercept and impersonate high-privilege (SYSTEM) tokens.
Detects potential PrintNightmare or Print Spooler exploitation by monitoring for the spoolsv.exe service spawning suspicious child processes (e.g., cmd, powershell, rundll32) and unauthorized files being dropped into the printer driver directory.
Detects behaviors associated with 'Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver' (BYOVD) attacks, including the dropping of .sys driver files into non-canonical directories, the registration and execution of kernel services via sc.exe, the use of fltMC to load filter drivers, and the loading of driver modules from non-standard locations.
This rule detects two primary indicators of potentially malicious activity involving the Windows Explorer process: 1) Suspicious process parentage, where explorer.exe is spawned by a parent other than the standard winlogon.exe, userinit.exe, or explorer.exe, or where explorer.exe spawns unusual child processes like cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or others. 2) Possible Parent PID (PPID) spoofing, identified by the presence of specific API-related keywords in the command line (e.g., SeImpersonatePrivilege, CreateProcessWithToken) within process creation events.
This rule detects potential process injection by monitoring a sequence of API calls (VirtualAllocEx, WriteProcessMemory, and QueueUserAPC/NtQueueApcThread) originating from common system processes like wusvc.exe, rundll32.exe, or regsvr32.exe. The sequence indicates that memory with RWX permissions is being allocated in a target process, written to, and then triggered for execution via an APC, which is a common pattern for malicious code injection.
Detects evidence of RustDesk session permission bypass exploitation. The rule monitors for the presence of known Proof-of-Concept (PoC) file artifacts, suspicious child processes spawned by RustDesk, use of elevated tokens by RustDesk-initiated processes, compilation of PoC tools using cargo, and outbound network connections from RustDesk to known relay ports.
Detects potential process impersonation by monitoring for suspicious named pipe creation followed by system-level process spawning.
Detects suspicious behavior associated with Remcos RAT, including UAC bypass techniques using ICMLuaUtil, process injection into system binaries, and persistence mechanism creation in the Windows registry.
This rule detects the execution of processes where the command line contains keywords commonly associated with privilege escalation or gaining administrative privileges, such as 'getadmin' or 'privesc'. It monitors Windows Security Event ID 4688, which logs process creation.
This rule detects when a user account repeatedly (3 or more times within an hour) requests either 'SeDebugPrivilege' or 'SeImpersonatePrivilege' (Event ID 4672). This behavior can be indicative of an attacker attempting to escalate privileges or manipulate access tokens, often seen in techniques like token impersonation or debugging processes for malicious purposes.
This rule detects potentially malicious activities related to Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS). It identifies suspicious certificate export commands (certutil, PowerShell), non-privileged processes writing to system certificate stores, and dangerous AD CS enrollment patterns such as Subject Alternative Name (SAN) modifications, often associated with ESC1 privilege escalation techniques.
Detects Active Directory Certificate Services (ADCS) certificate enrollment requests where the requester attempts to enroll a certificate with a Subject Alternative Name (SAN) identifying a different principal than the requester's own account. This pattern is indicative of the ESC1 ADCS misconfiguration abuse, which can lead to privilege escalation by impersonating other domain entities.
Detects instances where a non-SYSTEM parent process spawns a child process running as SYSTEM, characteristic of 'Potato' family exploits (e.g., JuicyPotato, PrintSpoofer) leveraging SeImpersonatePrivilege to elevate privileges. The rule specifically filters for known legitimate SYSTEM process spawners while highlighting suspicious parent-child process relationships.
