Detects anomalous child process execution (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe) by the Microsoft Exchange IIS worker process (w3wp.exe) or the creation of .aspx files in Exchange web directories. This behavior is highly indicative of post-exploitation activity, such as web shell deployment, frequently observed in attacks targeting vulnerabilities like ProxyShell and ProxyLogon.
Detects attempts to exploit Microsoft Exchange vulnerabilities (CVE-2021-34473, CVE-2021-34523, CVE-2021-31207), collectively known as ProxyShell. The rule monitors inbound HTTP requests targeting the /autodiscover/ endpoint with specific path traversal patterns and malicious components used to stage web shells or execute arbitrary commands.
Detects attempts to exploit Microsoft Exchange vulnerabilities (CVE-2021-34473, CVE-2021-34523, CVE-2021-31207), collectively known as ProxyShell. The rule monitors inbound HTTP requests targeting the /autodiscover/ endpoint with specific path traversal patterns and malicious components used to stage web shells or execute arbitrary commands.
This analytic identifies instances where a shell (PowerShell.exe or Cmd.exe) is spawned from W3WP.exe, the IIS worker process. This activity is significant as it may indicate webshell activity, often associated with exploitation attempts like those by the HAFNIUM Group on Exchange servers. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could allow attackers to execute arbitrary commands, potentially leading to system compromise, data exfiltration, or further lateral movement within the network.
