This query will identify the Microsoft Defender Antivirus Engine version and Microsoft Defender Antivirus Security Intelligence version (and timestamp), Product update version (aka Platform Update version) as well as the Microsoft Defender Antivirus Mode on the endpoint (Active, Passive, etc.).
Following the September 14th, 2021 release of three Elevation of Privilege (EoP) vulnerabilities (CVE-2021-38645, CVE-2021-38649, CVE-2021-38648) and one unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability (CVE-2021-38647) in the Open Management Infrastructure (OMI) Framework.
This detection validates that any OMS-agent that is reporting to the Microsoft Sentinel workspace is updated with the patch. The detection will go over the heartbeats received from all agents over the last day and will create alert for those agents who are not updated.

Microsoft has observed threat actors exploiting vulnerabilities associated with Log4J.
'This query uses the Azure Defender Security Nested Recommendations data to find machines vulnerable to OMIGOD CVE-2021-38647.
OMI is the Linux equivalent of Windows WMI and helps users manage configurations across remote and local environments. The query aims to find machines that have this OMI vulnerability (CVE-2021-38647).
Security Nested Recommendations data is sent to Microsoft Sentinel using the continuous export feature of Azure Defender(refrence link below).

This query was originally published in the threat analytics report, Solorigate supply chain attack. Please note that these attacks are currently known as the Nobelium campaign.
Microsoft detects the 2020 SolarWinds supply chain attack implant and its other components as part of a campaign by the Nobelium activity group. Nobelium is the threat actor behind the attack against SolarWinds, which was previously referred to as Solorigate.
Nobelium silently added malicious code to legitimate software updates for Orion, which is IT monitoring software provided by SolarWinds. In this way, malicious dynamic link libraries (DLLs) were distributed to SolarWinds customers.
The following query searches Threat and Vulnerability Management (TVM) data for Orion software known to be affected by the Nobelium campaign.
More Nobelium-related queries can be found listed under the See also section of this document.

This query provides the most common services discovered
The following analytic detects unauthenticated requests to an Amazon EKS Kubernetes cluster, specifically identifying actions by the "system:anonymous" user. It leverages AWS CloudWatch Logs data, focusing on user agents and authentication details. This activity is significant as it may indicate unauthorized scanning or probing of the Kubernetes cluster, which could be a precursor to an attack. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or disruption of services within the Kubernetes environment.
The following analytic identifies high-severity findings from AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR) image scans. It detects these activities by analyzing AWS CloudTrail logs for the DescribeImageScanFindings event, specifically filtering for findings with a high severity level. This activity is significant for a SOC because high-severity vulnerabilities in container images can lead to potential exploitation if not addressed. If confirmed malicious, attackers could exploit these vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access, execute arbitrary code, or escalate privileges within the container environment, posing a significant risk to the overall security posture.
The following analytic detects attempts to exploit the Citrix Bleed vulnerability (CVE-2023-4966), which can lead to the leaking of session tokens. It identifies HTTP requests with a 200 status code targeting the /oauth/idp/.well-known/openid-configuration URL endpoint. By parsing web traffic and filtering based on user agent details, HTTP method, source and destination IPs, and sourcetype, it aims to identify potentially malicious requests. This activity is significant for a SOC because successful exploitation can allow attackers to impersonate legitimate users, bypass authentication, and access sensitive data. If confirmed malicious, it could lead to unauthorized data access, network propagation, and critical information exfiltration.
The analytic detects the pulling of known Kubernetes security scanner images such as kube-hunter, kube-bench, and kube-recon. It leverages Kubernetes logs ingested through Splunk Connect for Kubernetes, specifically monitoring for messages indicating the pulling of these images. This activity is significant because the use of security scanners can indicate an attempt to identify vulnerabilities within the Kubernetes environment. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to the discovery and exploitation of security weaknesses, potentially compromising the entire Kubernetes cluster.
The following analytic identifies low, informational, or unknown severity findings from AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR) image scans. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs, specifically the DescribeImageScanFindings event, to detect these findings. This activity is significant for a SOC as it helps in early identification of potential vulnerabilities or misconfigurations in container images, which could be exploited if left unaddressed. If confirmed malicious, these findings could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or further exploitation within the containerized environment.
The analytic identifies medium-severity findings from AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR) image scans. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs, specifically the DescribeImageScanFindings event, to detect vulnerabilities in container images. This activity is significant for a SOC as it highlights potential security risks in containerized applications, which could be exploited if not addressed. If confirmed malicious, these vulnerabilities could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or further exploitation within the container environment, compromising the overall security posture.
This rule detects penetration testing activity originating from known offensive security distributions like Kali Linux, Parrot Linux, or Pentoo Linux, as identified by Amazon GuardDuty. The detection is based on GuardDuty findings that specifically indicate 'PenTest' activity.
Detects the use of a scanner by zerosum0x0 that discovers targets vulnerable to CVE-2019-0708 RDP RCE, also known as BlueKeep. The detection specifically looks for failed RDP login attempts (EventID 4625) with a TargetUserName of 'AAAAAAA', which is a known signature of this scanner.
This rule detects suspicious user agent strings commonly used by various hacking tools, including vulnerability scanners, brute-force tools, and SQL injection tools, within proxy logs. The rule identifies specific strings indicative of tools like Arachni, Hydra, DirBuster, SQLMap, and others, which are often employed during reconnaissance, initial access, and credential access phases of an attack.
This rule detects HTTP requests containing user-agent strings commonly associated with known scanning and reconnaissance tools such as Wfuzz, WPScan, and Recon-ng. These tools are often used by attackers to gather information about web applications and infrastructure before launching an attack.
