Detects a sign-in failure with error code 50199 (indicating a device-code interrupt/waiting state) followed immediately by a successful sign-in from the same source IP address. This pattern is characteristic of device-code phishing attacks, where an attacker intercepts a device code and completes the authentication process on behalf of the victim.

Detects email notifications regarding the addition of a new Personal Access Token (PAT) to a GitHub account. This activity is often a precursor to unauthorized API access if an adversary has compromised a user's account.

This rule detects tampering with Microsoft Defender by monitoring registry modifications to Image File Execution Options (IFEO) used to attach debuggers to security processes. It also detects the dropping of the 'kvckiller.sys' kernel driver into System32\drivers, which is associated with disabling security software at the kernel level, and the execution of processes containing 'wsftprm' in the command line.

Detects potential User Account Control (UAC) bypass attempts using the PowerShell 'Start-Process' cmdlet with the 'runAs' verb, which requests administrative privileges for a new process. The rule also includes a specific check for command-line artifacts associated with the 'wipe32' malware campaign, which utilizes this method for privilege escalation.

This rule detects the presence of a specific file named 'g11.sys' being loaded or accessed on a system, followed by the execution of 'sc.exe' to register or create a system service involving the same driver file. This pattern is commonly associated with the installation of kernel-mode drivers, which could be part of a rootkit deployment or a 'Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver' (BYOVD) attack.

0015
Detects the use of the 'EnumSystemLocalesA' API call where the provided callback address points to a non-image backed memory region with 'EXECUTE' permissions. This pattern is indicative of process injection techniques, where an adversary uses an API callback mechanism to execute malicious code within the memory space of a legitimate process.

Detects instances where runas.exe is used to launch PowerShell and monitors subsequent child processes for suspicious commands or activity, such as credential dumping tools, encoded commands, or access to sensitive browser data locations, which may indicate credential theft or unauthorized lateral movement.

Detects the creation or registration of scheduled tasks involving the suspicious artifact 'SolidPDFPcl2Bmp'. This monitoring covers process executions using schtasks.exe or reg.exe, registry modifications to the Windows Task Scheduler cache, and file drops within the Windows System32 Tasks directory, which are common indicators of persistence establishment via scheduled tasks.

Detects high-frequency failed logon attempts (>= 6) against accounts with administrative naming conventions within a 3-minute window. The rule specifically flags activity targeting multiple distinct destination hosts, which is a strong indicator of lateral movement or account brute-forcing/spraying attempts across an enterprise network.

Detects the modification of an existing IAM role's trust policy to include new trusted principals (external AWS accounts, root principals, or wildcards). This technique is used for persistence and privilege escalation by modifying existing roles to allow access by an attacker-controlled principal, effectively bypassing detections focused on the creation of new roles.

Detects successful non-interactive sign-ins to Azure CLI using the Resource Owner Password Credentials (ROPC) flow where Conditional Access policies failed to enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA). This typically indicates misconfigured Conditional Access policies, such as exclusions for non-interactive authentication methods or service accounts, which could be exploited by adversaries to bypass MFA.

31029
This rule detects a sequence of suspicious activities characteristic of rootkit deployment and defense evasion. It monitors for the creation of a specific driver file (kvckiller.sys) in the system drivers directory, the modification of registry keys related to services (wsftprm), the execution of service management commands (sc.exe or net.exe) referencing those registry keys, and the subsequent termination of security-related processes like MsMpEng.exe or SecurityHealthSystray.exe.

Detects the creation of a crontab entry configured to execute a Python one-liner that performs a network connection to a specific remote IP address on port 4444. This behavior is indicative of a persistence mechanism and a C2 (Command and Control) beaconing attempt.

Detects the creation or modification of persistence mechanisms (Windows Registry Run/RunOnce keys, Cron jobs, Systemd services, and macOS LaunchAgents/LaunchDaemons) that specifically reference Java executables or .jar files. This pattern is consistent with cross-platform malware such as QuimaRAT attempting to maintain persistence.

Detects instances where PowerShell is executed with common bypass flags by a process masquerading as or spawned by 'svchost.exe' located in non-standard system directories, specifically targeting executions originating from user-writable temporary locations.

Detects termination of security services or tampering with real-time protection configurations shortly after the loading of the PoisonX (g11.sys) kernel driver. This activity is indicative of a Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attack aimed at disabling endpoint defenses prior to the deployment of ransomware or other malicious payloads.

Detects attempts to grant world-writable (0666) permissions to the /dev/kvm device node using chmod or setfacl, or unauthorized (non-root) accounts interacting directly with the device. Such configuration changes are associated with the Januscape (CVE-2026-53359) vulnerability, which allows local users to exploit a shadow MMU use-after-free in the kernel to escalate privileges to root or escape into the host from a virtualized environment.

Detects instances where two specific DLL files, 'wwide9.dll' and 'FcHand.dll', are loaded by the same process on a device. This pattern of concurrent loading may indicate the execution or injection of malicious components, as these specific filenames are often associated with threat actor activity or malware campaigns.
