This rule detects the execution of processes with command lines containing keywords associated with common vulnerability scanners such as 'scanner', 'nessus', or 'qualys'. It aggregates these events by computer and account over one-hour intervals to identify potential vulnerability scanning activity within the environment.
Webworm Executes Nuclei and dirsearch
Cortex XDR
Detects vulnerability and directory scanners (Nuclei, dirsearch, or Python scripts) launched with output files or target lists covering numerous web servers. This activity is associated with the Webworm threat group.
Detects high-frequency requests (over 30 unique paths within a 5-minute window) to sensitive VPN-related URL paths that result in 403 (Forbidden) or 404 (Not Found) status codes from non-internal IP addresses. This behavior is indicative of an adversary performing directory enumeration or vulnerability scanning on public-facing infrastructure.
Detects high-frequency requests (over 30 unique paths within a 5-minute window) to sensitive VPN-related URL paths that result in 403 (Forbidden) or 404 (Not Found) status codes from non-internal IP addresses. This behavior is indicative of an adversary performing directory enumeration or vulnerability scanning on public-facing infrastructure.
This rule detects the execution of processes with command lines containing keywords associated with common vulnerability scanners such as 'scanner', 'nessus', or 'qualys'. It aggregates these events by computer and account over one-hour intervals to identify potential vulnerability scanning activity within the environment.
Detects the execution of known network scanning and reconnaissance tools (e.g., fscan, httpdf) or commands containing specific suspicious strings often associated with threat actor activity.
Detects one external source repeatedly requesting PeopleSoft administrative endpoints across multiple destinations or URLs within fifteen minutes. This activity could indicate an attacker performing reconnaissance or vulnerability scanning against public-facing PeopleSoft applications.
Detects attempts to discover CDN origin servers to bypass WAF protection
Detects active development and probing behavior by a VAPT tool using embedded test strings ("MediaVault Asset Portal" and "Reverb Studio") against local networks. This rule looks for these specific strings within network event fields like 'AdditionalFields' or 'RemoteUrl'.
Detects attempts to discover CDN origin servers to bypass WAF protection
This rule detects potential network reconnaissance activity by looking for keywords such as 'scan', 'sweep', 'probe', 'recon', 'nmap', and 'nessus' within the 'Message' field of CommonSecurityLog entries. This could indicate an adversary actively gathering information about the network infrastructure.
This rule detects an unusual number of HTTP OPTIONS or TRACE method requests from a single IP address within a one-hour window. While these methods have legitimate uses, their frequent or excessive use can indicate reconnaissance, vulnerability scanning, or attempts to bypass security controls. The rule triggers if 5 or more such requests are observed from the same IP within an hour.
This rule detects the execution of processes with command lines containing keywords associated with common vulnerability scanners such as 'scanner', 'nessus', or 'qualys'. It aggregates these events by computer and account over one-hour intervals to identify potential vulnerability scanning activity within the environment.
This rule detects HTTP requests originating from the Nessus vulnerability scanner. It specifically looks for the string "Nessus" (case-insensitive) within the HTTP User-Agent header of outgoing HTTP traffic from the protected network.
Detects the creation of processes where the command line contains keywords such as 'cve' or 'vulnerability'. This could indicate attempts to exploit known vulnerabilities, perform vulnerability research, or execute tools related to vulnerability assessment.
This rule detects network traffic generated by the OpenVAS vulnerability scanner. It specifically looks for HTTP requests where the User-Agent header contains the string "OpenVAS" (case-insensitive). This indicates that an OpenVAS scanner is actively probing the network, which could be part of a legitimate security assessment or a malicious reconnaissance effort.
This rule detects the presence of the Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner based on its unique User-Agent string in HTTP traffic. It specifically looks for the case-insensitive string "acunetix" within the HTTP User-Agent header in traffic flowing from the internal network to an external server.
This rule detects potential vulnerability scanning activity by identifying devices making multiple successful network connections to specific ports commonly used by vulnerability scanners (8834, 8889, 1241). A device is flagged if it makes 3 or more such connections within a one-hour window.
Detects the creation of files containing keywords such as 'vulnerability', 'assessment', or 'scan'. This rule aims to identify activities related to vulnerability scanning or security assessments being performed on a system, potentially indicating reconnaissance or unauthorized activity. The events are summarized by the initiating process account name and time to help identify the source of these activities.
Detects the creation of processes where the command line contains keywords such as 'cve' or 'vulnerability'. This could indicate attempts to exploit known vulnerabilities, perform vulnerability research, or execute tools related to vulnerability assessment.
This rule detects the execution of processes with command lines containing keywords associated with common vulnerability scanners such as 'scanner', 'nessus', or 'qualys'. It aggregates these events by computer and account over one-hour intervals to identify potential vulnerability scanning activity within the environment.
