Detects rapid deletion and creation cycles of the WD_SCAN object manager link, a behavioral pattern associated with a Time-of-Check-to-Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) exploit chain targeting Windows Defender (referenced as CVE-2026-69414). The rule monitors for at least three cycle events occurring within a 5-second window, specifically involving the 'WD_SCAN' object identifier.
Detects suspected exploitation of CVE-2026-81963, an Elevation of Privilege vulnerability in the Windows Update stack. The rule monitors for the creation of reparse points, junctions, or symbolic links within update staging paths by Windows Update processes, followed by either the spawning of suspicious child processes or unauthorized file writes/renames outside of expected directories, which are indicative of a privileged link-following exploit.
Detects potential local privilege escalation via Windows ALPC (Advanced Local Procedure Call) heap-based buffer overflow by identifying a non-SYSTEM Chrome process tree spawning child processes with SYSTEM privileges. The rule specifically monitors for suspicious child binaries or paths characteristic of exploit payloads while excluding legitimate Chrome update and crash handler processes.
Detects rapid, repeated invocation of Microsoft Defender remediation processes (mpcmdrun.exe, MsMpEng.exe) occurring in conjunction with suspicious file write or rename operations in System32. This pattern is characteristic of a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition, where an attacker attempts to exploit the timing gap between Defender's detection and remediation actions to replace a file with a malicious version.
This rule monitors the software inventory for outdated versions of the PostgreSQL database server. It identifies installations where the major and minor versions are below the threshold for current security releases (e.g., v18 < 6, v17 < 11, v16 < 15, v15 < 19, v14 < 24). Running outdated software increases the risk of exploitation of known vulnerabilities.
Detects the creation of Object Manager symbolic links that redirect the Windows Defender 'WD_SCAN' object to a loopback UNC share path. This behavior is indicative of a symlink exploitation technique (ShieldCrash/CVE-2026-69414) used to manipulate Windows Defender or associated scan operations by redirecting them to an adversary-controlled or loopback-hosted target.
Detects unexpected crashes or restarts of the Windows Defender service (MsMpEng.exe) occurring in temporal proximity to activities associated with the ShieldCrash PoC or tampering within the Windows Defender object manager namespace. This rule aims to identify potential exploitation attempts targeting Windows Defender, specifically correlating security service instability with known malicious indicators.

This pattern is characteristic of a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition, where an attacker attempts to exploit the timing gap between Defender's detection and remediation actions to replace a file with a malicious version.
Detects KATARU IoT malware samples embedding the DirtyFrag (CVE-2026-43284) Linux local privilege escalation exploit copied from public PoC code, as part of a chained LPE attempt targeting root shell spawning
Detects KATARU IoT malware embedded exploit code for CVE-2026-31431 (Copy Fail) Linux privilege escalation, identified by shared exploit-chain strings and syscall sequences used to spawn su as root
Detects execution of shell interpreters (tar, sh, bash) by the Parallels Desktop dispatcher service (prl_disp_service) or usage of compression flags containing specific markers associated with UCP/ACTOR privilege escalation patterns, specifically when executed with root privileges or by a root user.
Detects interactive root shell requests via 'sudo -i' that occur shortly after a failed Parallels appliance installation or tar extraction event containing specific error codes or configuration markers (UCP_UID=0). This pattern aligns with the exploitation chain for CVE-2026-90894, where an attacker leverages an extraction failure to escalate privileges.
Detects unauthorized or non-privileged processes attempting to communicate with the Parallels Desktop IPC Unix socket (prl_disp_service.socket). This behavior is indicative of exploitation attempts targeting the ParaShells vulnerability (CVE-2026-90894), where an unprivileged user can leverage the socket's lack of proper signature or identity verification to escalate privileges.
Detects the 'prl_disp_service' process spawning 'tar' with the '--use-compress-program' flag set to an unconventional binary. This behavior is associated with the exploitation of ParaShells (CVE-2026-90894), where an attacker leverages the compression program hook in 'tar' to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges.
Detects suspected exploitation of CVE-2026-81963, an Elevation of Privilege vulnerability in the Windows Update stack. The rule monitors for the creation of reparse points, junctions, or symbolic links within update staging paths by Windows Update processes, followed by either the spawning of suspicious child processes or unauthorized file writes/renames outside of expected directories, which are indicative of a privileged link-following exploit.
The following analytic detects the creation or modification of adsource.dll or other staging files with the name adsource_*.dll within the SCCM SMS Provider bin directory, consistent with exploitation of CVE-2026-47301.
This abuses a DLL side-loading vulnerability in the Microsoft Configuration Manager SMS Provider component.
An attacker can plant a malicious adsource.dll in the SCCMProvider bin\X64 path, causing the SMS Provider service to load the attacker-controlled library in a privileged context.
The presence of renamed dlls alongside adsource.dll is a strong indicator of the classic DLL hijacking pattern where the legitimate library has been renamed so the malicious replacement can proxy calls to it.
If confirmed malicious, this activity represents a privilege escalation vector that can result in SYSTEM-level code execution on any host running the SCCM SMS Provider role.

This rule aims to identify potential exploitation attempts targeting Windows Defender, specifically correlating security service instability with known malicious indicators.
Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of unsigned executable files (.exe, .dll, .sys, .efi) within critical Windows system directories (System32, SysWOW64, drivers, boot). The rule excludes activity triggered by known trusted OS update processes, such as TrustedInstaller or Windows Update services, and optionally flags occurrences outside defined maintenance windows.
Detects indicators of the 'ShieldCrash' proof-of-concept (CVE-2026-69414 exploit bypass) on Windows systems. The rule monitors for specific malicious file activity, module loading, and the presence of decoy archive files associated with the PoC, which are used to achieve arbitrary file read as SYSTEM.
Detects potential local privilege escalation via Windows ALPC (Advanced Local Procedure Call) heap-based buffer overflow by identifying a non-SYSTEM Chrome process tree spawning child processes with SYSTEM privileges. The rule specifically monitors for suspicious child binaries or paths characteristic of exploit payloads while excluding legitimate Chrome update and crash handler processes.
Detects suspicious activities originating from CrowdStrike Falcon remediation processes (e.g., CSFalconService.exe, CSFalconContainer.exe). The rule identifies two distinct patterns: either a file operation (delete, modify, rename, quarantine, or restore) followed within 2 minutes by the loading of an unsigned or non-standard DLL, or the spawning of an elevated SYSTEM process from a non-SYSTEM parent process. This behavior is indicative of potential LPE (Local Privilege Escalation) abuse via the Falcon remediation engine, often referred to as FalconFlank-style exploitation.
