Pulls the full content of every PowerShell, VBS, and JS script executed on a given host. Use * in both parameters to get everything
Detects the execution of pythonw.exe from locations within the AppData\Roaming directory, which is a known behavior of the SynkLoader malware. The rule monitors for specific paths used by the loader for both the interpreter and script files.
Detects the creation of a Windows scheduled task where the action involves executing pythonw.exe with a specific script named 'ss.py'. This rule specifically looks for task registration events (Event ID 4698) where the action command line contains both 'pythonw.exe' and 'ss.py', while excluding tasks created by 'schtasks.exe' to focus on non-standard creation methods often used by malware or living-off-the-land techniques to register persistence via the COM interface.
Detects a suspicious execution chain where wscript.exe is used to run a file named 'rust-setup-launch.vbs' from a temporary directory, which subsequently triggers powershell.exe to execute a script named 'rust-setup.ps1'. This behavior is indicative of a staged supply chain attack.
Detects the execution of JavaScript files using WScript or CScript that contain obfuscated 'eval()' calls, such as string concatenation (e.g., (0,this)["ev"+"al"]) or Unicode escaping. Adversaries often use these techniques to bypass signature-based detection for malicious script execution.
Detects suspicious execution patterns in Unix-based shells (sh, bash, zsh) where commands are obfuscated using base64, openssl, or gunzip and then executed via 'eval'. The command further includes indicators of manual execution or persistence, such as 'printf', 'xattr', or immediate permission changes ('chmod +x'). This pattern is frequently observed in the delivery of multi-stage payloads, fileless malware, or initial entry stagers.
Detects the creation of a scheduled task via the Windows COM interface, a technique used by malware like SynkLoader to bypass command-line monitoring (e.g., schtasks.exe). The rule monitors Windows Security Event IDs 4698 and 4702 for tasks configured to trigger on logon that execute script-based content (Python or PowerShell) from user-writable directories.
Detects the execution of Windows Script Host (wscript.exe) where the Interactive mode is explicitly disabled in the script content or command line arguments. Disabling interactive mode is a common technique used by attackers to ensure malicious scripts run silently without triggering UI prompts or requiring user interaction.
Detects execution chains where archive utilities (7-Zip, WinRAR) or explorer.exe, when initiated from temporary or download directories, spawn common scripting engines (PowerShell, mshta.exe, cmd.exe, wscript.exe) that contain suspicious network-related or obfuscated command-line indicators.
Detects Mirage2FA phishing stager artifacts by requiring multiple distinctive indicators together: XOR key 0xAD decode chain, LINX*/token placeholders, obfuscator.io _0x naming, api/xls C2 path, iframe injection, and SVG ECMAScript AiTM redirect
Detects malicious JavaScript injection attempts by msaRAT that leverage the Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) Runtime.evaluate method. The malware attempts to execute specific code snippets to facilitate flow-controlled data transfers over WebRTC DataChannels using Base64ToArrayBuffer conversions and a 24KB buffer threshold.
Detects command-line execution patterns involving the instantiation of potentially malicious COM objects (such as ADODB.Stream, Shell.Application, or network-related objects) using WScript.CreateObject or ActiveXObject. This pattern is commonly used in malicious JScript/VBScript to facilitate file operations, command execution, or network communication.
Detects the execution of Windows Script Host (wscript.exe) where the Interactive mode is explicitly disabled in the script content or command line arguments. Disabling interactive mode is a common technique used by attackers to ensure malicious scripts run silently without triggering UI prompts or requiring user interaction.
This rule detects suspicious process execution chains originating from ScreenConnect (ConnectWise Control) service. It monitors for common living-off-the-land binaries (LolBins) or specific suspicious command-line patterns (e.g., encoded commands, credential discovery commands) being spawned by the ScreenConnect process, which is often abused by threat actors such as APT35/Magic Hound for remote access and persistence.
Detects the use of .NET AesCryptoServiceProvider in PowerShell scripts, which is frequently used by adversaries to decrypt embedded, obfuscated, or encrypted payloads within a script for malicious execution.
Detects the execution or installation of the cloudflared utility via PowerShell, which is often used by adversaries to establish persistence or remote access tunnels (Cloudflare Tunnel). The rule triggers on process command lines involving 'cloudflared' and '1.ps1' keywords commonly associated with scripted deployment.
This rule detects potential multi-stage desktop takeover attacks by monitoring sequences of process execution within a 5-minute window. It looks for initial shell (explorer.exe or cmd.exe) spawning script-based tools (mshta.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe, cmd.exe) with suspicious command-line arguments (extensions like .lnk, .url, .hta, or PowerShell-specific artifacts like 'IEX', 'DownloadString', or '-enc'). This is immediately followed by a secondary stage where PowerShell, cmd, or rundll32 are used to load external DLLs, register modules via regsvr32, or interact with AppData/Local/Temp directories, indicative of payload staging and execution.
This rule detects potentially malicious command execution (RCE) originating from AI orchestration platforms and development runtimes (such as Ollama, LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, n8n, Node.js, and Python). It flags instances where these processes spawn command shells (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, bash, sh) and execute suspicious command-line patterns indicative of code injection or command execution (e.g., eval(), exec(), subprocess, child_process). The rule uses a threshold of 3 or more occurrences in a 15-minute window per device and process to reduce noise.
Detects the execution of LOLBins (PowerShell, mshta, cmd, wscript) directly spawned from common web browsers (explorer, chrome, edge, firefox) with command-line arguments indicative of malicious activity, such as base64-encoded commands, hidden window styles, or remote script download and execution.
This rule detects PowerShell processes (powershell.exe, powershell_ise.exe, pwsh.exe) that execute the 'Compress-Archive' cmdlet in conjunction with strings indicative of data staging or exfiltration workflows (e.g., 'ZIPDOWNLOAD', '-DestinationPath'). The detection logic further narrows the scope by identifying if the parent process (InitiatingProcessCommandLine) involved activities related to downloading or uploading files, suggesting an automated staging and potential exfiltration sequence often seen in malicious backdoors.
This rule detects potential webshell activity by monitoring the correlation between web server processes spawning suspicious child processes (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe, rundll32.exe) and the creation of executable or script files within identified web directories. The logic establishes a high-confidence correlation when both events occur on the same device within a 15-minute window, while also surfacing uncorrelated individual process spawns or suspicious file writes as lower-confidence indicators. It includes exclusions for known administrative and deployment processes to reduce noise.
