KQL detects suspicious child processes launched by PHP or web-server workers following possible exploitation of CVE-2026-109618 or CVE-2026-109619.
Detects when typical discovery commands (whoami, id, uname, ipconfig) are executed under a web server or PHP process parent, potentially indicating post-exploitation activity following a web application compromise. The rule aggregates distinct commands within a 15-minute window to reduce false positives.
Detects quick reconnaissance commands (such as whoami, id, uname, ipconfig) executed directly by a web server worker (e.g., PHP-FPM, Apache httpd) or via a shell child process of the web server worker, indicative of post-exploitation activity like php2shell.
Detects common reconnaissance commands (whoami, id, uname, ipconfig) executed directly by web server workers or via shells spawned by web workers, indicative of web shell usage or exploitation.
Detects web server processes (such as nginx, apache2, httpd, uwsgi, gunicorn, php-fpm) spawning command-line utilities typically used for system and user discovery (such as id, whoami, groups, hostname, uname, netstat, ps, etc.), which often indicates web application exploitation and remote code execution.
Detects when the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe) spawns common system and network discovery utilities such as whoami, ipconfig, systeminfo, net, and others, which may indicate web shell activity or post-exploitation discovery.
Detects when a device connects to a wireless network SSID that has not been observed in the baseline over the previous 14 days.
The following analytic detects the execution of the Windows built-in tool netsh.exe to display the state, configuration, and profile of the host firewall. This detection leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on command-line executions and process metadata. Monitoring this activity is crucial as netsh.exe can be used by adversaries to bypass firewall rules or discover firewall settings. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow attackers to manipulate firewall configurations, potentially leading to unauthorized network access or data exfiltration.
The following analytic detects suspicious system network configuration discovery activities, which may indicate an adversary's attempt to gather information about the network environment. Such actions typically involve commands or tools used to identify network interfaces, routing tables, and active connections. Detecting these activities is crucial, as they often precede more targeted attacks like lateral movement or data exfiltration. By identifying unusual or unauthorized network discovery efforts, this analytic helps security teams to swiftly detect and respond to potential reconnaissance operations, mitigating the risk of further compromise.
The following analytic identifies potential enumeration of local network configuration on Linux systems.
It detects this activity by monitoring processes such as "arp," "ifconfig," "ip," "netstat," "firewall-cmd," "ufw," "iptables," "ss," and "route" within a 30-minute window.
This behavior is significant as it often indicates reconnaissance efforts by adversaries to gather network information for subsequent attacks.
If confirmed malicious, this activity could enable attackers to map the network, identify vulnerabilities, and plan further exploitation or lateral movement within the environment.

If confirmed malicious, this activity could enable attackers to map the network, identify vulnerabilities, and plan further exploitation or lateral movement within the environment.
This analytic identifies non-browser processes reaching out to public IP lookup or geolocation services,
such as `ipinfo.io`, `icanhazip.com`, `ip-api.com`, and others.
These domains are commonly used by legitimate tools, but their usage outside of browsers may indicate
network reconnaissance, virtual machine detection, or staging by malware.
This activity is observed in post-exploitation frameworks, stealer malware, and advanced threat actor campaigns.
The detection relies on Cisco Network Visibility Module (NVM) telemetry and excludes known browser
processes to reduce noise.

Detects the execution of discovery or credential access utilities (e.g., whoami, net, reg, ldapsearch) spawned by Java-based server processes like java.exe or tomcat.exe. This activity is often indicative of an attacker leveraging a vulnerable web application to perform reconnaissance or credential harvesting on the host system.
This rule detects suspicious activity where a user account executes multiple disparate reconnaissance or discovery commands within a 30-minute window. It monitors for the execution of common Windows administration and discovery tools like dsquery, nltest, net, nslookup, and tasklist using specific, non-standard arguments indicative of network or domain reconnaissance.
Detects the Microsoft IIS worker process (w3wp.exe) spawning common command-line shells (cmd.exe or powershell.exe) and executing discovery-related commands. This is highly indicative of potential web shell activity where an adversary uses an existing web application vulnerability to gain remote code execution.
This rule detects instances where a process matching a known sideload-vulnerable binary (such as werfaultsecure or wuauclt) spawns a PowerShell process that executes commands commonly used for Active Directory reconnaissance and system information discovery. This behavior is indicative of post-compromise activity, specifically reconnaissance phases performed by malware loaders like Lorem Ipsum.
Detects anomalous activity where AI assistant processes (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot) execute a high volume of diverse discovery commands. The rule correlates multiple discovery categories, such as account, network service, system information, and network configuration discovery, occurring within a short timeframe to identify potential abuse of AI-integrated development tools for host reconnaissance.
Detects execution of various reconnaissance commands commonly used by Remote Access Trojans (RATs) to profile a target host. This includes querying security product status (AV/Defender), enumerating domain controllers, network adapters, port scanning, and gathering system hardware and software inventory.
Detects a suspicious sequence of reconnaissance activities associated with ShinyHunters campaigns targeting PeopleSoft environments. The pattern involves reading '/etc/hosts' using standard utilities ('cat', 'grep', 'awk') followed by rapid network discovery or probing attempts using 'curl', 'wget', 'nmap', or 'nc' from the same host within a 10-minute window.
Detects anomalous, rapid enumeration of system, network, process, and software configuration settings by AI coding assistant processes (e.g., Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT). This behavior often signifies an AI agent being coerced or configured to perform environment discovery or credential gathering, indicating potential compromise or abuse of the LLM-integrated development environment.
