Detects the execution of TruffleHog, a tool designed to search for secrets across various platforms such as Git, Jira, Slack, and SharePoint. While TruffleHog is a legitimate tool often used in CI pipelines and security assessments, its execution can also indicate malicious activity, as observed in campaigns like Shai-Hulud targeting npm packages to steal sensitive information. The rule triggers on the execution of 'trufflehog.exe' or when its command line arguments indicate searching specific platforms or verifying results.

This rule detects the execution of TruffleHog, a tool designed to find secrets in various platforms such as Git, GitHub, Jira, Slack, Confluence, SharePoint, Docker images, and cloud storage services like S3 and GCS. While TruffleHog is a legitimate tool often used in CI pipelines and security assessments, its execution can also indicate malicious activity, as observed in the Shai-Hulud malware campaign targeting npm packages to steal sensitive information. The rule triggers on either the image name ending with '/trufflehog' or a combination of command-line arguments indicating its use to scan specific platforms and the '--results=verified' flag.

This rule detects attempts to search for JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) via command-line interface (CLI) tools. It specifically looks for common JWT header prefixes ('eyJ0eXAiOi' and 'eyJhbGciOi') within command-line arguments of tools like 'find', 'findstr', 'select-string', and 'strings'. Threat actors often search for these tokens to steal them for purposes such as lateral movement or privilege escalation, as JWTs are widely used for authentication and authorization in various applications and services (e.g., Microsoft 365, Azure, AWS, Google Cloud).

The following analytic identifies instances where users may have mistakenly entered their passwords in the username field during authentication attempts. It detects this by analyzing failed authentication events with usernames longer than 7 characters and high Shannon entropy, followed by a successful authentication from the same source to the same destination. This activity is significant as it can indicate potential security risks, such as password exposure. If confirmed malicious, attackers could exploit this to gain unauthorized access, leading to potential data breaches or further compromise of the system.
