Detects the creation of specific files associated with the UAC-0184 threat group, often used in DLL sideloading scenarios. The rule looks for the presence of 'cluster-overlay64.exe', 'plane9engine.exe', 'plane9engine.dll', 'openvr_api.dll', 'kernel-diag.lib', and 'filter.bin' in common temporary or user data directories. It triggers if three or more of these files are found within an hour, or if 'kernel-diag.lib' or 'filter.bin' are present.

Detects command-line obfuscation via Windows environment variable substring expansion (%var:~offset,length%), an evasion technique used by APT37 in the Operation Deepfake/HumanitarianBait-adjacent campaigns to reconstruct malicious commands at runtime and bypass static command-line scanning. This rule catches both the APT37-specific single-character extraction pattern (,1%) and the broader high-count substring-expansion pattern that any obfuscated command exhibits regardless of chunk size. It also flags cmd.exe /k invocation, which APT37 commonly uses.

Detects the variable splitting technique in cmd.exe specifically designed to obfuscate the invocation of PowerShell (e.g., set x=pow&&set y=ershell). This technique is used in the InstallFix campaign to bypass static command-line monitoring.

This rule detects suspicious command-line patterns indicative of obfuscation, encoding, or stealth techniques often used by adversaries. It scores various characteristics such as hidden window styles, variable manipulation, string operations, and decoding functions (e.g., Base64, Gzip, Deflate). The rule filters out known legitimate processes and command-line boilerplate to reduce false positives and classifies detections based on the highest scoring obfuscation category.

Detects the presence of JavaScript obfuscation indicators such as 'atob(', 'Blob(', or 'URL.createObjectURL' in process command lines. These functions can be used by malicious scripts to decode or create objects from obfuscated data, often as part of a defense evasion strategy.

Detects PowerShell commands reading their own batch file contents via the %~f0 self-reference combined with .NET ReadAllText, the technique Deep#Door uses to extract its embedded Python payload from install_obf.bat without external network retrieval. The combination of these specific patterns has near-zero legitimate use.

Detects files with specially crafted filenames that embed Base64-encoded bash payloads designed to execute when processed by shell scripts.
These filenames exploit shell interpretation quirks to trigger hidden commands, a technique observed in VShell malware campaigns.
