Detects the GOST tunnel binary deployed as svchost.exe from a staging directory, identified by its known hash, or by an unsigned PE importing config.dll with a matching MZ header and embedded config.dll reference (reduces FPs from legitimately signed software that imports a DLL of the same name)

Detects a system shell/interpreter copied or moved into a writable or non-standard path -
the precursor to the 'copy /bin/bash, set SUID, run bash -p' misconfiguration abuse and a
common staging step in the page-cache PoCs. Enriched with source/destination decode, an
inline-SUID-intent flag (chmod +s / chmod 4755 / install -m / setcap in the same command),
masquerade flags (renamed, hidden dotfile, system-lookalike name), a weighted RiskScore /
TriagePriority and DeviceInfo context. Pairs with OS-DET-LNX-006 and correlation
OS-DET-LNX-007. Detection logic adapted from Elastic Security Labs.

This rule detects activities associated with the Star Blizzard (also known as APT28 or Callisto) group's CosmicPulse malware, specifically the downloader and Python-based backdoor. It monitors for suspicious CPL file execution via UNC paths by rundll32.exe or control.exe, unauthorized modifications to the HKCU\Software\Classes\.mollis registry key used for COM hijacking, and anomalous spawning of Python executables from control host processes in user-writable directories.
This analytic detects network connections initiated by binaries that are not typically associated with network communication,
such as 'notepad.exe', 'calc.exe' or 'write.exe'.
It leverages Cisco Network Visibility Module logs to correlate network flow activity with process context, including command-line arguments, process path, and parent process information.
These applications are normally used for locally and do not require outbound network access. When they do initiate such connections, it may indicate process hollowing, code injection, or proxy execution, where adversaries abuse a trusted process to mask malicious activity.

Detects phishing messages that deliberately mix writing systems/scripts or use homoglyphs in the Subject line as ONE corroborating signal within a broader, multi-signal phishing pattern. This is the only translation that implements true sender-novelty checking via baseline lookups (a sending domain must be new to both the specific recipient and the organization as a whole to add risk). A weighted score (script-mixing=2, homoglyph=3, phishing vocabulary=2, sender-novelty=1, threshold=6) requires multiple corroborating signals before firing. Note: unlike the SPL/S1QL/CQL/CortexQL translations, this version does not strip brand/product tokens before the script check.
Detects the execution of MSP360 or generic RMM-labeled binaries originating from common user download directories (Downloads or Temp folders) when the filename mimics common phishing lures such as invoice, e-card, RSVP, or document-related naming conventions. This activity indicates a potential social engineering attempt to execute remote monitoring and management tools.
The following analytic identifies a LOLBAS process being executed outside of it's expected location.
Processes being executed outside of expected locations may be an indicator that an adversary is attempting to evade defenses or execute malicious code.
The LOLBAS project documents Windows native binaries that can be abused by threat actors to perform tasks like executing malicious code.

Detects the creation of persistence mechanisms through both Registry Run keys and Scheduled Tasks within a one-hour window, specifically targeting names indicative of masquerading as legitimate update or helper components.
This rule detects potential persistence via scheduled tasks that masquerade as legitimate network components (e.g., 'System Health Monitor'), as well as abnormal use of WebDav via rundll32.exe or net.exe in the context of the Star Blizzard (COLDRIVER) campaign. It monitors for task creation/updates, schtasks command lines, registry artifacts related to task scheduling, and suspicious WebDav network utility usage, while excluding common security tool processes.
Detects execution of potentially malicious or dual-use tools (such as credential dumpers or security-bypass utilities) from within ScreenConnect temporary directories via the 'RunFile' command. This is indicative of an attacker leveraging legitimate remote support software to deploy secondary payloads.
High-fidelity correlation of OS-DET-LNX-005 and OS-DET-LNX-006: a system shell copied to a
non-standard/writable path, followed within 15 minutes on the same host by execution of a
shell with the privilege-preserving -p flag from a non-standard path. The two events
together are a near-certain SUID-root shell misconfiguration abuse (bash -p to root) and a
lower-FP signal than either component alone. Detection logic adapted from Elastic Security Labs.

This rule detects common Cobalt Strike malleable profile named pipe creation events as well as network connections initiated by common LOLBins (Living Off the Land Binaries) that are unsigned, which is a common indicator of beaconing activity.

This rule detects the execution of processes that use file names mimicking legitimate security or system services, such as 'Credential Guard.exe' or 'Window Security Health Services.exe'. These names are often used by adversaries for masquerading to evade detection by blending in with legitimate system activity.
Detects the execution of a file named 'msedge_proxy.exe' located in temporary directories (AppData\Local\Temp or Windows\Temp). The rule excludes processes initiated from legitimate Microsoft Edge installation paths, and flags processes that are either spawned simultaneously with the parent or are not spawned by explorer.exe, indicating potential masquerading or unauthorized execution of a malicious file disguised as a browser component.
Detects evidence of cryptocurrency mining (XMRig) and suspicious process masquerading on Linux systems, alongside container-related events referencing known malicious or suspicious strings such as 'GH0ST_C2' or 'fsociety'.
This rule detects the execution of 'netstat.exe' when initiated by a Python process (python.exe, python3.exe, or pythonw.exe) where the executable is located in non-standard, likely project-specific or virtual environment directories (e.g., 'Scripts', 'bin', 'venv', 'site-packages'). This pattern is often used to execute system binaries from unconventional locations to evade detection or as part of a post-exploitation activity where a script or package includes a malicious or hijacked version of a legitimate system tool.
Detects network requests to known domains (acrobat-reader-installer.com, 03webzoominvite.us) masquerading as Microsoft Store resources to deliver malicious MSI installers. This activity is associated with RMM-based RAT deployment chains.
Detects phishing messages that deliberately mix writing systems/scripts/homoglyphs in the Subject line as ONE corroborating signal within a broader, multi-signal phishing pattern. Hardened against false positives: brand/product tokens (e.g. Microsoft, PayPal) are stripped before the Latin-script check so a lone brand mention in non-Latin correspondence doesn't count as mixed-script; a weighted score (script-mixing=2, homoglyph=3, high-confidence phishing vocabulary=2, threshold=6) means no two of the three signal categories can reach the threshold alone — all three must co-occur before the rule fires.
