This rule detects the use of the malicious GitHub Action 'ci-quality/code-quality-check@v1' associated with the SANDWORM_MODE campaign. This action is designed to harvest CI secrets and propagate the malware by being referenced in a GitHub workflow file. The rule searches for the specific string of the malicious GitHub action within file content or file/audit paths, specifically targeting GitHub workflow files (.yml or .yaml) in '.github/workflows/' directories.

This rule detects a multi-stage attack chain. The first rule identifies the Notepad++ updater (GUP.exe) spawning curl.exe to upload reconnaissance output to 'temp.sh/upload', indicating a potential supply-chain attack. The second rule detects the execution of 'ProShow.exe' from an unusual location within the AppData\Roaming\ProShow directory, which is part of a described execution chain. The third rule identifies the execution of 'script.exe' with 'alien.ini' from the AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Scripts directory, matching another stage of the supply-chain attack.

Detects file operations involving known malicious hashes associated with a Notepad++ supply chain compromise. The rule identifies files with specific SHA1 hashes and provides contextual information such as action type, device name, file path, and initiating process details. The enhanced version further categorizes risk levels, enriches data with Notepad++ specific context, and aggregates events for a summary view, including threat metrics and prioritization for response actions.

Detects the Notepad++ updater (GUP.exe) spawning child processes with suspicious names (update.exe, install.exe, AutoUpdater.exe) from the Local Temp directory. This behavior was a primary vector for all three execution chains identified in the Notepad++ supply chain attack.

This rule detects the execution of reconnaissance commands (whoami, tasklist, systeminfo, netstat) via `cmd.exe` where the parent process is either `GUP.exe` or `AutoUpdater.exe`. This behavior is indicative of the Notepad++ supply chain attack, where malicious updates could execute system reconnaissance commands. The detection specifically looks for output redirection, which is a common technique for adversaries to save command output.
