Detects the creation of a new administrator account in WordPress by monitoring for SQL INSERT operations targeting the wp_users and wp_usermeta tables that involve setting the wp_capabilities to administrator. This behavior is indicative of unauthorized account creation often associated with compromised or malicious WordPress plugin updates.
Detects the creation of a new local user account followed by its immediate addition to the Administrators or Remote Desktop Users groups, a common pattern observed in post-exploitation activities related to CVE-2019-0708 (BlueKeep) for achieving persistent administrative access.
This rule monitors for the creation or presence of a specific backdoor account (username 'p2pwn' and password 'p2password') on Dahua devices. This account is known to be injected by threat actors exploiting CVE-2024-39943 as part of Operation CameraSwarm to maintain persistent unauthorized access.
Detects execution of malicious binaries ('liblocal-service.so', 'frpc', 'local-service.update') or suspicious shell commands on Android devices consistent with the RatHat malware family. The rule monitors for unauthorized APK installations, modification of accessibility service settings, and manipulation of system standby/doze modes via adb or local shell commands.
This rule detects the creation of a local user account using the 'net.exe' or 'net1.exe' utility where the command line contains a specific hardcoded password ('Numlock!123'). This pattern is indicative of automated or manual post-exploitation activities, such as creating a back-door account for persistent access.
This rule monitors for the execution of 'net.exe' or 'net1.exe' with command line arguments containing 'user', '/add', and a specific suspicious string 'Numlock!123'. This pattern is indicative of an adversary attempting to create a local user account on a Windows system using a hardcoded or known adversary credential.
Detects unauthorized creation of a WordPress administrator account through direct SQL injection or manual database modification by monitoring for insertions into the 'wp_users' table or modifications to the 'wp_usermeta' table with 'administrator' capabilities.
Detects modifications to Windows LSA and LanmanServer registry keys (RestrictAnonymous, NullSessionPipes) in conjunction with ERAAgent.exe process execution, as well as ERAAgent creating named pipes accessible by anonymous logon, which may indicate configuration tampering to facilitate unauthorized access or credential collection.
Detects unauthorized modification of the Nacos database users table, specifically identifying direct INSERT or UPDATE statements used to plant a backdoor administrative account. The rule correlates database modifications with abnormal authentication patterns, such as a password hash update occurring after a failed login attempt to the Nacos application.
Detects modifications to Windows LSA and LanmanServer registry keys (RestrictAnonymous, NullSessionPipes) in conjunction with ERAAgent.exe process execution, as well as ERAAgent creating named pipes accessible by anonymous logon, which may indicate configuration tampering to facilitate unauthorized access or credential collection.

This rule monitors for the creation or presence of a specific backdoor account (username 'p2pwn' and password 'p2password') on Dahua devices. This account is known to be injected by threat actors exploiting CVE-2024-39943 as part of Operation CameraSwarm to maintain persistent unauthorized access.
Detects suspicious activity associated with the exploitation of a vulnerability in N-central (CVE-2026-86218). The rule monitors for unauthorized child process spawning by N-central components, creation of files in the application directory consistent with web shells, outbound network connections indicative of command and control, and the creation of new local or service accounts for persistence.

The following analytic detects the creation of a new local user account on a MacOS system. It leverages osquery logs to identify this activity.
Monitoring the creation of local accounts is crucial for a SOC as it can indicate unauthorized access or lateral movement within the network.
If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow an attacker to establish persistence, escalate privileges, or gain unauthorized access to sensitive systems and data.

Detects PowerShell command line arguments containing ADSI (Active Directory Service Interfaces) patterns
trying to create a new user account via the WinNT or LDAP provider. This is an uncommon method to create
user accounts and may indicate an attempt to evade detection by avoiding more commonly monitored commands
such as "net user", "New-LocalUser" or "New-ADUser".
