Detects the execution of a shell as sub process of "rsync" without the expected command line flag "-e" being used, which could be an indication of exploitation as described in CVE-2024-12084. This behavior is commonly associated with attempts to execute arbitrary commands or escalate privileges, potentially leading to unauthorized access or further exploitation.

Detects exploitation attempts of CVE-2023-38331 (WinRAR before v6.23), where an attacker can leverage WinRAR to execute arbitrary commands and binaries. The rule specifically looks for child processes spawned by WinRAR.exe, where the command line contains a temporary path indicative of the vulnerability (e.g., '\AppData\Local\Temp\Rar$') and a double extension (e.g., '.ext .exe'), combined with the execution of common binaries like cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or scripting hosts.

This rule detects the execution of 'csc.exe' as a sub-process of 'WINWORD.EXE'. This specific process relationship is indicative of exploitation attempts leveraging CVE-2017-8759, where a crafted document (opened by Winword) can lead to the execution of arbitrary code, often using csc.exe (C# compiler) to compile and execute malicious code on the fly.

This rule detects the creation of potentially suspicious child processes by WinRAR.exe. Adversaries may exploit vulnerabilities in WinRAR, such as CVE-2023-38831, to achieve arbitrary code execution. This rule specifically looks for WinRAR.exe spawning common scripting or execution binaries like cmd.exe, cscript.exe, mshta.exe, powershell.exe, pwsh.exe, regsvr32.exe, rundll32.exe, and wscript.exe. Such activity is highly indicative of an adversary attempting to execute further commands or payloads after exploiting WinRAR.

Detects events generated by user-mode applications when they call the CveEventWrite API, indicating that a known vulnerability is potentially being exploited. Microsoft started using this log in January 2020, notably with CVE-2020-0601 (a Windows CryptoAPI vulnerability). However, the rule's description notes that this log has historically seen limited use for reporting CVEs.

This rule detects potential successful exploitation of CVE-2021-26857, a Microsoft Exchange Server vulnerability. It specifically looks for abnormal child processes spawning from the 'UMWorkerProcess.exe' (Unified Messaging service) on Exchange servers. The rule filters out legitimate Windows Error Reporting processes ('wermgr.exe' and 'WerFault.exe') to reduce false positives, indicating that any other process spawned by 'UMWorkerProcess.exe' is considered suspicious and a potential indicator of compromise.

Detects suspicious child processes spawned from web browsers on macOS. This activity often indicates a potential web browser exploitation attempt, where an attacker leverages a browser vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands or scripts on the system. The rule specifically looks for common scripting and command-line interpreters being launched as child processes of various browsers, while filtering out known legitimate browser-related activities like updates or recovery scripts.

Detects the creation of ".rev" files by WinRAR, which can indicate potential exploitation of CVE-2023-40477. This vulnerability allows for arbitrary code execution. The rule looks for file creation events where the process is either 'explorer.exe' (suggesting extraction via context menu) or 'WinRAR.exe', and the created file has a '.rev' extension. Further investigation for suspicious execution or WinRAR application crashes shortly after such file creation is recommended.

Detects Microsoft Word (WINWORD.EXE) starting the uncommon sub-process FLTLDR.exe, which is indicative of exploitation attempts for vulnerabilities like CVE-2017-0261 and CVE-2017-0262. This behavior suggests a malicious document is attempting to execute arbitrary code.

This rule detects the execution of a script via the SCX RunAsProvider ExecuteScript function, which is associated with the OMIGOD vulnerability. Specifically, it looks for process creation events where the user is 'root', the LogonId is '0', the CurrentDirectory is '/var/opt/microsoft/scx/tmp', and the CommandLine contains '/etc/opt/microsoft/scx/conf/tmpdir/scx'. This pattern indicates the execution of a temporary script created by the SCX agent, often exploited for privilege escalation or initial access.

Detects Microsoft Office applications executing child processes that include directory traversal patterns in their command line. This behavior is indicative of exploitation attempts, specifically referencing vulnerabilities like CVE-2022-30190 (MSDT RCE, also known as Follina) and CVE-2021-40444 (MSHTML RCE). The rule looks for common Office applications as parent processes and specific directory traversal strings in the child process's command line.

This rule detects the creation of suspicious shell processes or system utilities spawned by the Java utility 'keytool.exe'. This behavior is often indicative of exploitation, such as the CVE-2021-40539 vulnerability in ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus, where attackers leverage keytool to execute arbitrary commands. The rule specifically looks for 'keytool.exe' as the parent process and a wide range of common Windows and Linux shell/utility executables as the child process.
