Detects rundll32 execution where the DLL is located on a remote location (share)
Generic rule content from file: TOKYOCORE Lateral Movement via WMIC Remote Process Creation (/node:)
Detects lateral movement patterns involving PsExec or PSEXESVC where either a suspicious command-line flag (e.g., '-psex') is present or the PsExec service spawns child processes like cmd.exe or powershell.exe executing suspicious, obfuscated, or remotely retrieved payloads.
Detects the execution of 'net use' commands targeting administrative shares (C$ or ADMIN$) on Windows systems. This behavior is frequently associated with lateral movement, where an adversary attempts to connect to remote file shares using administrative credentials to move files or execute malicious payloads.
Detects anomalous NTLM authentication activity (LogonType 3) where a single account or source IP attempts to authenticate to 25 or more unique hosts within a 10-minute window. This behavioral pattern is frequently observed during credential spraying, pass-the-hash attacks, or unauthorized lateral movement attempts using NTLM.
Detects the execution of psexesvc.exe, the service component of the PsExec tool, spawned from services.exe. This activity is indicative of lateral movement through the use of PsExec, which installs and executes the service to run commands remotely.
Detects the use of the Windows 'net use' utility to mount a C$ administrative share using explicit user credentials. This behavior is commonly associated with lateral movement techniques where an adversary attempts to connect to a remote system share to gain access, transfer files, or execute binaries.
Detects mpr.dll loaded by non-standard processes followed by an SMB (port 445) connection from the same process, consistent with Cavern Manticore's WNetAddConnection2 routine that lazily resolves the API via P/Invoke (bypassing the static import table) and marshals stolen credentials to authenticate to remote network resources.
This rule detects potential reverse shell command execution by monitoring process creation events (EventID 4688) for specific command-line strings commonly associated with reverse shells. It looks for 'bash -i', '/bin/bash', 'nc -e', and 'powershell -NoP' in the command line.
Detects the execution of known Impacket framework tools (such as secretsdump, wmiexec, smbexec, atexec, GetUserSPNs, or ntlmrelayx) which are commonly used for credential dumping, remote service execution, and lateral movement.
This rule detects suspicious access patterns to Windows administrative shares (C$, D$, E$, IPC$, ADMIN$). It specifically looks for multiple access attempts (10 or more within an hour) involving read or write operations (AccessMask contains '0x0001' or '0x0002') from a single source IP address and account. This behavior can indicate lateral movement, data exfiltration, or other malicious activity.
Detects the execution of PsExec (psexec.exe or psexesvc.exe) where the binary is not digitally signed by Microsoft Corporation. This is often an indicator of renamed or tampered versions of the tool used for lateral movement or remote command execution.
Detects the use of 'pushd' via cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or pwsh.exe to mount remote UNC or WebDAV paths. This command allows users to map a network share to a temporary drive letter and change the current working directory, which is frequently used by adversaries to access remote shares or stage tools.
Detects the use of the 'net.exe' or 'net1.exe' command-line utilities to mount a local SMB share using loopback addresses (127.0.0.1 or localhost) with the '/tcpport' argument. This pattern is indicative of attempts to exploit CVE-2026-24294 to bypass NTLM authentication protections through local reflection or relay attacks.
This rule detects network traffic indicative of PsExec lateral movement, specifically identifying the authentication or access to the hidden 'ADMIN$' network share followed by the transfer or execution of the 'PSEXESVC' service binary, a hallmark of the PsExec tool.
Detects an abnormally high volume of connections to the hidden IPC$ administrative share on a Windows host within a short time window. This activity is often associated with lateral movement techniques, scanning, or brute-forcing attempts where adversaries interact with SMB shares for reconnaissance or remote execution.
Detects inbound RPC calls to the Service Control Manager interface with operation numbers corresponding to service creation and modification, which may indicate lateral movement via remote service installation.
This rule detects a high volume of network share connections (SMB/CIFS) from a single device to multiple remote IPs within a short timeframe. This behavior can be indicative of ransomware attempting to encrypt files across network shares, or other forms of rapid lateral movement and data access. The rule specifically looks for connections on ports 445 or 139 initiated by common user or system processes like explorer.exe, cmd.exe, or powershell.exe.
Detects instances where a process running under the NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM user context spawns a common execution utility (like cmd, powershell, or wscript) on a host that has recently engaged in network communication over port 445 (SMB). This behavior is highly indicative of lateral movement using SMB, such as service-based execution or remote command execution via tools like PsExec or WMI.
Detects instances where a process running under the NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM user context spawns a common execution utility (like cmd, powershell, or wscript) on a host that has recently engaged in network communication over port 445 (SMB). This behavior is highly indicative of lateral movement using SMB, such as service-based execution or remote command execution via tools like PsExec or WMI.
This rule detects the use of 'net.exe' or 'net1.exe' to configure a non-standard SMB port, which is a technique often used for NTLM reflection and relay attacks. By specifying an arbitrary port for SMB traffic, an attacker may attempt to bypass standard network filtering or establish a listener to intercept authentication requests.
