Detects uncommon or suspicious child processes spawning from a WSL process. This could indicate an attempt to evade parent/child relationship detections or persistence attempts via cron using WSL.

This rule detects potentially malicious memory manipulation and thread execution activity originating from the ERAAgent.exe process. It specifically identifies when ERAAgent.exe calls VirtualProtect or VirtualAlloc to set memory as PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE, followed shortly by a CreateThread or CreateRemoteThread operation. This behavior is indicative of process injection or reflective code loading, where an executable image is manually mapped into memory and executed, bypassing traditional file-based detection.

Detects the GoCaracal lightweight implant performing process injection by identifying combinations of remote process memory allocation (VirtualAllocRemoteApiCall), memory writing (WriteProcessMemoryRemoteApiCall), and remote thread creation (CreateRemoteThreadApiCall) associated with specific suspicious filenames. It also monitors command-line activity for injection-related flags.

004
This rule detects suspicious command executions (e.g., whoami, downloadstring, iex, registry modifications) initiated by processes associated with the CrowdStrike Falcon agent. It also correlates these executions with the loading of unsigned or unverifiable DLLs by the same Falcon processes within a 5-minute window, which may indicate attempts to tamper with or masquerade as the security agent.

004
Detects the use of common Linux command-line utilities (sed, grep, awk, bash, sh) to perform operations on sensitive system logs or shell history files. The rule targets command strings indicative of log modification, filtering, or removal of audit trails, often associated with an attacker attempting to conceal malicious activity.

004
Detects the 'ted' backdoor or similar malicious activity attempting to manipulate HAProxy's internal connection counters by accessing or writing to the HAProxy process memory (/proc/[pid]/mem or /proc/self/mem). This behavior is characteristic of an attempt to evade backend logging and statistics tracking by directly modifying process memory structures.

Audits Direct Send traffic against an approved-IP watchlist, flagging unauthenticated inbound mail spoofing an internal domain from an unrecognized source IP. Fixed: RecipientDomain/SenderFromDomain were referenced but never defined (would have errored at runtime); replaced with derived SenderDomain/RecipientDomain consistent with the sibling rules. Removed a noisy display-name-contains-domain OR-branch. Replaced an always-true-in-practice auth check (required every one of SPF/DKIM/DMARC to show literal "Pass", which fails for many legitimate senders that pass via alignment on only one protocol) with the same CompAuth/all-three-fail logic used elsewhere in this set.

204
Detects the creation and immediate deletion of a .dylib file within the 'Library/Application Support/updated/instances/' directory on macOS. This pattern is often associated with the ProRAM technique where a shared library is written to disk, loaded via dlopen, and quickly removed to evade static file-based detection.

004
Detects the execution of PowerShell commands that utilize base64-encoded strings, window style arguments for obfuscation, and subsequent decoding to reveal suspicious indicators such as network downloading commands or archive manipulation, indicative of potential fileless malware staging.

004
This rule detects the creation, modification, or renaming of 'ntdll.dll' within a specific directory path matching the pattern 'ShieldCrash_{GUID}'. This pattern is indicative of potential malicious activity, such as the use of NTFS Alternate Data Streams (ADS) for persistence or execution evasion. The rule explicitly excludes known legitimate system processes that may handle DLL files to minimize noise.

This rule detects potential attempts to tamper with or bypass Windows Defender by monitoring for files or processes named 'ShieldCrash' occurring in close temporal proximity to the creation or modification of files within Windows Defender's shadow or scan directories (BaseNamedObjects\Restricted\WD_SHADOW_ or WD_SCAN). This behavior is often associated with malware attempting to evade security detection.

104
Detects suspicious PowerShell execution initiated by explorer.exe containing encoded commands, correlated with concurrent activity in the Windows RunMRU registry key or execution of rundll32.exe referencing 'WindowsUpdate.log'. This pattern is frequently used to mask malicious activity and maintain stealth during fileless execution or persistence operations.

104
Detects the creation of specific mutex objects ('AppUpdateHelper' or 'WinSvc') commonly associated with Hidden VNC (hVNC) backdoors. These mutexes are used by the malware to ensure only one instance is running on the host, and the regex pattern targets the specific naming convention (including a hex suffix) utilized by these threats.

004
Detects execution of rundll32.exe with command-line arguments involving 'DavWWWRoot' and external domains ('pf.ch' or 'verification.google'), which is characteristic of attempts to force remote WebDAV authentication or execute malicious code via network-hosted resources.

204
Detects the creation of new AWS access keys or login profiles for a target identity immediately following the deletion or modification of a credential for the same identity, where the actors performing the two actions are different. This pattern indicates an adversary creating persistent access after a security incident responder or automated system has revoked a previously compromised credential.

Detects a suspicious sequence of events within JFrog Artifactory where an account accesses sensitive code-signing material (rubygems/gemspec/signing keys) and subsequently performs administrative actions (user addition/role assignment/privilege escalation) within a one-hour window, indicating potential account takeover or exploitation.

Detects pull requests created in GitHub repositories by entities labeled as 'Bot', 'App', or 'integration', or containing the term 'codex', specifically targeting repositories where such entities have not performed these actions in the previous 30 days. This baseline approach identifies potentially hijacked or unauthorized automation accounts performing activities outside of their standard repository scope.

This rule detects a user account performing its first-ever GitHub OAuth or repository access within a short timeframe (30 minutes) after authenticating to a designated low-trust OpenAI community forum. This pattern is designed to identify potential adversary activity where a compromised or newly created account is used to pivot from a low-trust environment to corporate repository access.
