Detects the execution of a specific Visual Basic script named 'Telegram_Private_Call_Session.vbs' by Windows scripting utilities (wscript.exe, cscript.exe) or the Microsoft HTML Application host (mshta.exe). This pattern is often associated with the execution of malicious scripts disguised as legitimate communication application components.

Detects the execution of mshta.exe by explorer.exe with command line arguments containing script protocols (javascript:, vbscript:) or remote URLs. This is a common technique used by attackers to execute malicious HTA files or inline scripts, bypassing security controls.

Detects execution chains associated with the SideCopy threat group's ReverseRAT payload. The detection looks for mshta.exe being spawned by common shell processes (explorer, wscript, cmd, powershell) to execute remote HTA content or access 'docsportal.in'. It also monitors for subsequent reflective DLL loading via rundll32.exe or regsvr32.exe, which is indicative of the final ReverseRAT payload activation.

This rule detects scenarios where common web browsers (e.g., chrome.exe, msedge.exe) spawn known living-off-the-land (LotL) binaries (e.g., powershell.exe, wscript.exe, mshta.exe) with command-line arguments indicative of malicious activity, such as base64-encoded strings, hidden window flags, or remote script invocation (IEX/Invoke-Expression). This pattern is frequently used in drive-by download or phishing delivery chains where an initial payload is triggered directly from a browser context.

Detects instances where mshta.exe is launched from a web browser or explorer.exe with suspicious command-line arguments, such as remote URLs, script protocols, or potentially obfuscated/base64-encoded strings, often indicative of 'ClickFix' social engineering attacks.

Detects execution chains where explorer.exe (acting as the Run dialog host) spawns suspicious processes like mshta.exe, powershell.exe, or cmd.exe with command lines containing URL indicators (http), common payload filenames (rtdx.dat), or specific IP address strings associated with known ClickFix social-engineering campaigns.

This rule detects the execution of common command-line utilities (cmd.exe, mshta.exe, AutoIt3.exe) using command-line arguments that mimic legitimate service names or security analysis tools (e.g., 'Microsoft Update Superfetch Core Endpoint Service'). This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to mask malicious activity by using strings that resemble benign system services or localized security scanner output, likely for obfuscation or evasion.

Detects the execution of mshta.exe with a command line involving remote HTTP connections or suspicious file extensions (.dat), which are often used by adversaries to proxy the execution of malicious scripts or HTA files.

This rule detects instances where Windows scripting engines (WScript or MSHTA) execute script files (WSF, VBS, HTA) which subsequently spawn a PowerShell process using encoded command arguments. This pattern is commonly used by adversaries to mask malicious payloads and bypass execution policy or simple command-line monitoring.

This rule detects instances where mshta.exe acts as a parent process to initiate powershell.exe. It specifically looks for command line arguments that employ obfuscation techniques, such as character casing variations (e.g., 'POWERsHeLl'), while simultaneously excluding standard casing, combined with flags typical of non-interactive execution (e.g., -NonInteractive or /w h /c). This pattern is commonly used by adversaries to bypass security controls and execute scripts hidden from user view.
