This rule detects potential DLL hijacking attempts targeting Terminal Services (RDP) by looking for the string "termsrv.dll" within TCP traffic destined for port 3389 (RDP). This could indicate an attacker attempting to load a malicious DLL in place of the legitimate termsrv.dll to maintain persistence or execute arbitrary code.

This rule detects attempts to create a stored procedure in a Microsoft SQL Server database that includes the 'xp_cmdshell' extended stored procedure. 'xp_cmdshell' allows execution of operating system commands directly from SQL Server, and its use in a newly created stored procedure can indicate an attacker establishing persistence or attempting to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying system.

This rule detects a sequence of TCP SYN packets with a zero data size, originating from any source to any destination within the home network. The detection is triggered when 5 such packets are observed from the same source within a 3-second window. This pattern is indicative of a 'Magic Packet Implant Activation Sequence', which could be used by an attacker for persistence or command and control.

This rule detects the remote creation of a WMI event subscription, specifically looking for '__EventFilter' and 'CommandLineEventConsumer' within TCP traffic on port 445. This activity is often associated with persistence mechanisms used by attackers.

This rule detects the remote installation of a new Windows service over SMB (Server Message Block) protocol. It specifically looks for TCP traffic on port 445 (SMB) directed to the home network, containing the strings "CreateService" and "svcctl" (case-insensitive). This combination indicates an attempt to create a new service remotely, which can be a method for persistence or privilege escalation by attackers.

This rule detects attempts to modify Cisco router firmware using ROMMONkit. It specifically looks for TCP traffic to the HOME_NET on port 23 (Telnet) containing the case-insensitive strings "rommon" and "tftpdnld". This combination suggests an attempt to interact with the router's ROM Monitor mode for firmware manipulation, often associated with malicious activities like installing backdoors or persistent malware.

This rule detects network traffic on port 445 (SMB) containing the strings "LSASS" and "AddDll" (case-insensitive). This combination of strings suggests an attempt to register a malicious DLL with the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) for persistence, a technique often used by malware to maintain access on a compromised system. The flow is set to 'to_server' and 'established', indicating an outgoing connection from the monitored network to a server, and that the TCP connection has been successfully established.

This rule detects network traffic on TCP port 445 (SMB) containing the case-insensitive strings "powercfg" and "change". This combination suggests an attempt to modify system power settings, potentially to prevent a system from sleeping or shutting down, which could be a persistence mechanism.

This rule detects network traffic on TCP port 445 (SMB) containing the strings "icacls" and "grant" (case-insensitive). This combination suggests an attempt to modify file or directory permissions, specifically granting permissions, which could be indicative of an attacker exploiting a service binary file permission weakness to establish persistence or elevate privileges. The rule is triggered when these strings are observed in traffic flowing to the server.

This rule detects the deployment of a potentially malicious middleware component on an application server. It specifically looks for HTTP POST requests to port 8080 with a URI containing 'deploy' (case-insensitive) and a data size greater than 10000 bytes. This pattern is indicative of a large payload being sent to deploy an application or component, which could be malicious in nature.

This rule detects attempts to write shell event hook scripts, specifically those using 'trap' and 'SIGHUP', over an SSH connection. This activity is often associated with persistence mechanisms where an attacker sets up a script to execute upon certain shell signals, such as a hangup signal, to maintain access or execute malicious code.

This rule detects network traffic indicative of a remote WMI event subscription being registered. Specifically, it looks for TCP traffic on port 135 (typically used by Microsoft RPC and DCOM, which WMI can leverage) directed to the home network, containing the string "__EventConsumer" case-insensitively. This activity can be a sign of persistence mechanisms being established by attackers.

This rule detects attempts to register a new system service via a remote SSH connection. It specifically looks for the string "service install" within TCP traffic on port 22 (SSH) flowing from a client to a server within the home network. This activity could indicate an attacker establishing persistence on a compromised system.

This rule detects when a cron job is created or modified via a remote SSH session. It specifically looks for the string "crontab -e" within TCP traffic destined for port 22 (SSH), indicating an interactive session where a user is editing their crontab file. This activity, when originating from a remote SSH session, could be indicative of an attacker establishing persistence or scheduling malicious tasks on a compromised system.

This rule detects the string "launchctl load" within TCP traffic on port 22 (SSH). This indicates an attempt to load a launchd service on a macOS or Linux system via a remote SSH connection. This activity could be legitimate system administration but also could be indicative of an attacker establishing persistence or executing malicious services.

This rule detects potential DCOM lateral execution attempts. It specifically looks for TCP traffic to port 135 (typically used by DCOM/RPC) on the home network, containing the byte sequence '|05 00 0b|' within the first 3 bytes of the payload. A threshold of 5 occurrences from the same source within 30 seconds is set to reduce false positives.

This rule detects HTTP POST requests to the '/sdk/vimService' URI on TCP port 443 (HTTPS) targeting an ESXi host. This pattern is indicative of direct API command execution attempts against the VMware vSphere API, which could be used by an attacker to interact with or control the ESXi hypervisor.

This rule detects LDAP bind requests originating from an external source to a domain controller (port 389) within the home network. It specifically looks for the 'bindRequest' content in TCP traffic and triggers an alert if 10 such requests are observed from the same source within a 30-second window. This could indicate an attempt to enumerate or authenticate against directory services from outside the internal network, potentially as part of initial access or reconnaissance.
