Detects the NetworkShareScanner SMB/USB worm by known hash or by unsigned-executable propagation to remote shares/removable drives.
Detects potential lateral movement by identifying the creation or modification of a file named 'fsociety.exe' on sensitive Windows administrative shares (ADMIN$ or C$). This behavior is consistent with the TOKYOCORE worm-like threat activity, where malicious binaries are replicated across the network.
Detects the lateral movement behavior of the TOKYOCORE ransomware, which involves copying the 'fsociety.exe' file to remote hosts using administrative shares (ADMIN$ or IPC$) or specifically targeting the '\Windows\Temp\' directory.
Detects lateral movement patterns involving PsExec or PSEXESVC where either a suspicious command-line flag (e.g., '-psex') is present or the PsExec service spawns child processes like cmd.exe or powershell.exe executing suspicious, obfuscated, or remotely retrieved payloads.
This rule detects the execution of the QEMU virtualization engine (qemu-system-x86_64.exe) when associated with specific toolset files (e.g., BloodHound, Metasploit) or suspicious network activity patterns indicative of lateral movement, such as connecting to administrative ports (SMB, RDP, WinRM) on external or sensitive network ranges. The rule calculates a risk score based on the presence of these indicators.
This rule detects suspicious access patterns to Windows administrative shares (C$, D$, E$, IPC$, ADMIN$). It specifically looks for multiple access attempts (10 or more within an hour) involving read or write operations (AccessMask contains '0x0001' or '0x0002') from a single source IP address and account. This behavior can indicate lateral movement, data exfiltration, or other malicious activity.

Detects the command line pattern characteristic of Impacket's SMBExec, involving echoing a payload to a temporary batch file, executing, and deleting it.
Detects suspicious usage of remote execution tools like PsExec, WMIC, and PowerShell, which are commonly used for lateral movement by adversaries. The rule identifies instances where these tools are executed multiple times within a short period (more than 2 times in 5 minutes) from non-system accounts and outside of standard system directories, indicating potential malicious activity.
Detects the suspicious creation of executable files in C:\ProgramData with randomized paths, typically associated with the SystemBC backdoor. The detection rule correlates this file creation event with co-occurring suspicious activities indicative of ransomware operations, such as the creation of known ransomware-related files (e.g., decryptor notes) or signs of lateral movement via non-standard network traffic and SMB activity.
Detects the command line pattern characteristic of Impacket's SMBExec, involving echoing a payload to a temporary batch file, executing, and deleting it. Threat actors use this for rapid lateral movement.
This rule detects lateral movement activity and implant deployment patterns associated with the threat group OceanLotus (APT32). It monitors for the creation of specific suspicious files and paths often used by SPECTRALVIPER/WINDSHIELD malware, identifies file transfers over SMB orchestrated by system processes, tracks the execution of remote administration tools like PsExec, and identifies internal pivot activity via named pipes.
Detects the creation of files associated with the SPECTRALVIPER malware, used by OceanLotus for DLL sideloading. This rule specifically monitors for known launcher executables (e.g., Genuine.exe, Updater.exe) and associated configuration/payload files (e.g., GlobalSettings.conf, appcompat.log) being dropped into directories commonly used for persistence or lateral movement, such as Autodesk and Windows appcompat folders.
This rule detects an unusually high volume of successful network connections over SMB (ports 135, 139, 445) originating from a single account within a one-hour window. This behavior can be indicative of lateral movement, reconnaissance, or data exfiltration activities using SMB/RPC.
This rule detects a high volume of access attempts (5 or more within an hour) to administrative shares (C$, D$, E$, ADMIN$) from a single source IP address. This activity can be indicative of lateral movement, data exfiltration, or reconnaissance by an adversary attempting to gain access to sensitive information or spread malware across the network.
Detects processes that exhibit signs of C2 communication (specifically on ports 4000-5000, associated with SystemBC) followed by the writing of executable or script files to SMB/UNC paths and subsequent remote lateral movement execution via WMI, Windows services, or scheduled tasks on the same host.
Detects the transfer of executable or script files to remote administrative shares (ADMIN$, C$, IPC$) between hosts, a behavior frequently observed in SystemBC staging operations and lateral movement activities associated with ransomware actors.
Smbexec Lateral Movement
YARA-L
Detects the command line pattern characteristic of Impacket's SMBExec, involving echoing a payload to a temporary batch file, executing, and deleting it.
This rule detects potentially malicious lateral movement or persistence activities by monitoring the creation or modification of executable files in remote network shares and startup folders, as well as the use of administrative tools like sc.exe or schtasks.exe to create services or tasks. The rule specifically filters out processes signed by Microsoft, focusing on non-standard or unsigned binaries that perform these administrative actions across multiple instances, indicating potential automated lateral propagation.
This rule detects the creation or modification of executable files (.exe or .dll) on hidden Windows administrative shares (e.g., ADMIN$, C$, D$, IPC$), followed by the execution of a process with the same file hash on a different host within a one-hour window. This behavior is indicative of lateral movement using SMB shares to stage and execute malicious payloads.
Detects instances where PowerShell is invoked with an execution policy bypass flag to copy the 'curl.exe' binary from its legitimate System32 location to user-writable directories (such as AppData, Temp, or Public folders) and renaming it. This activity is often associated with adversaries attempting to evade security controls by masquerading legitimate system utilities.
