This rule detects various forms of process injection (Remote Thread, APC, Map View of Section) targeting common, high-value Windows processes such as explorer.exe, lsass.exe, and web browsers. This behavior is a common technique used by attackers to gain persistence, elevate privileges, or execute code within the context of legitimate system or user-level processes to evade detection.

This rule detects various process injection techniques (such as CreateRemoteThread, QueueUserAPC, and remote memory writes) initiated by external processes targeting high-value, commonly abused Windows system processes like svchost.exe, lsass.exe, and explorer.exe. These techniques are often used by ransomware and other malware to hide malicious code execution within trusted system memory space.

Detects suspicious cross-process memory access events, such as PROCESS_VM_WRITE and PROCESS_SUSPEND_RESUME, often indicative of process hollowing or Early Bird APC injection. The rule monitors for elevated granted access masks originating from non-system processes, a behavior associated with the CLOSEDQUORUM implant's post-compromise activities.

Detects PavokwiLoader behavior where a potentially malicious process spawns a browser or system process (e.g., smartscreen.exe) in a suspended state, followed by cross-process memory allocation and writing, and subsequent thread hijacking or execution resumption, indicating a process hollowing injection technique.

Detects instances where a suspected malicious loader initiates process hollowing or APC injection by launching trusted Windows binaries (e.g., LockAppHost.exe, makecab.exe, Magnify.exe) in a suspended state. The rule identifies suspicious post-injection behavior such as unexpected network connections or child process creation originating from these typically benign binaries, which is characteristic of the DeepLoad/ClickFix attack chain.

001
Detects potential process injection attempts (e.g., Early Bird APC injection or process hollowing) where a process is spawned in a suspended state, followed shortly by a remote-thread or QueueUserAPC injection primitive targeting that same process. The rule correlates process creation events with subsequent API calls while excluding known legitimate patterns like .NET runtime operations, system updaters, and EDR/AV security components.

005
Detects suspicious cross-process memory operations where a source process requests process creation/write permissions on a target process (e.g., browsers, explorer.exe, or svchost.exe), followed immediately by the execution of a remote thread injection technique such as CreateRemoteThread, QueueUserAPC, or NtCreateThreadEx within the same process pair.

Detects the DeepLoad malware staging process injection by spawning trusted Windows binaries (LockAppHost.exe, makecab.exe, or Magnify.exe) in a suspended state from an unauthorized parent process. This behavior is indicative of an APC-based injection sequence where malicious code is written into the suspended process before execution.

This rule detects potential defense evasion activity identified by SentinelOne as call stack spoofing. The rule triggers when behavioral indicator tags related to spoofed call stacks, thread execution masking, or suspicious indicators involving RtlUserThreadStart, BaseThreadInitThunk, or kernel32.dll are detected, suggesting an attempt to hide malicious thread execution from security monitoring tools.

Detects APC injection into dllhost.exe unbacked/private memory via NtQueueApcThread correlated with a subsequent outbound network connection from the same process — the ACRStealer injection-and-C2 pattern.

Detects process hollowing/injection into wab.exe, MSBuild.exe, dllhost.exe, or rundll32.exe — suspended process creation combined with SetThreadContext or NtQueueApcThread on the same process within a 5-minute window, followed by an outbound connection to known ACRStealer C2 (49.13.169.214) or renewed browser credential-store access.

Detects process injection attempts leveraging Asynchronous Procedure Calls (APC) by monitoring process access events for a characteristic API call sequence involving VirtualAllocEx, WriteProcessMemory, QueueUserAPC, and CreateRemoteThread, commonly associated with the Starland RAT.
