18,132 detections

This rule detects processes with names commonly associated with system daemons (e.g., kworker, fc-cache, chronyd, gvfsd) that are executing from non-standard, suspicious directories such as /tmp/ or user-defined hidden folders. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to masquerade malicious binaries as legitimate system processes to evade detection.

Detects the presence of the Docro Hijacker browser hijacker component (Adblock.dll) designed to tamper with Chrome's 'Secure Preferences' file. It specifically looks for indicators of HMAC-SHA256 integrity check bypass mechanisms used to force-install malicious browser extensions.

Detects NSIS installer/archive contents bundling the specific unsigned/renamed UpdateAssistant.exe (aka AppUpdateHelper.exe) payload alongside its associated staged runtime DLLs and known malicious file paths/hashes used as cover noise for DLL sideloading staging

Detects the silent installation of remote monitoring and management (RMM) software using 'msiexec.exe' initiated by scripting engines (powershell.exe, wscript.exe, or cscript.exe). The rule targets installations occurring in user-writable directories, such as Temp or Downloads, which are common staging locations for malicious droppers, while excluding known legitimate software deployment paths.

Detects anomalous data access or collection activity across multiple M365 workloads (SharePoint, OneDrive, Exchange). The rule identifies users exhibiting high volumes of file or mail access across at least two distinct workloads within a one-hour window, which may indicate account compromise, bulk data exfiltration, or unauthorized persistence via mailbox rules.

This rule detects user authentication events that deviate significantly from a 14-day historical baseline of known devices, operating systems, browsers, and network locations (ASN). It flags logins where at least two out of four key metadata signals (DeviceId, OS, Browser, ASN) have changed compared to the user's historical pattern, specifically targeting successful authentications that did not trigger a fresh multi-factor authentication (MFA) challenge, potentially indicating token theft or unauthorized session reuse.

Detects a privilege escalation technique where an attacker with application management permissions adds a credential to the 'Office 365 Exchange Online' service principal (SP). The attacker then leverages the SP's 'Domain.ReadWrite.All' permission to add or modify a federated domain, allowing them to forge tokens for any hybrid user.

Detects a sequence of events where a user visits a Cloudflare Pages URL (*.pages.dev) and shortly after, a suspicious command (mshta, powershell, or curl) is executed. This pattern is consistent with the UNC5142 threat actor's TTP of using social engineering lures hosted on Cloudflare Pages to trick users into running malicious commands.

Detects instances where 'ERAAgent.exe', part of the ESET Remote Administrator agent, loads the 'dpapi.dll' library from a location outside of standard Windows System directories (System32 or SysWOW64). Furthermore, the rule flags this behavior if the loaded 'dpapi.dll' file is either unsigned or contains an untrusted digital signature, which may indicate a malicious DLL side-loading or masquerading attempt to access protected system credentials.

Detects potential exploitation of a CrowdStrike Falcon remediation process vulnerability ('FalconFlank'). The rule identifies either direct execution of the PoC binary or the suspicious combination of a CrowdStrike remediation process loading an unsigned or untrusted DLL from a user-writable path followed by the same process spawning a command shell in the SYSTEM context within 15 minutes.

This rule detects unauthorized attempts to modify CrowdStrike Falcon sensor exclusion registry keys or commands involving DLL loading techniques that may indicate evasion preparation, specifically referencing potential FalconFlank-related activities. It filters out legitimate management activity from known service accounts, SCCM, and the CrowdStrike Falcon agent itself.

Detects the RejectDirectSend bypass (null SMTP envelope sender + internal-domain spoof). Tightened to require Microsoft's composite auth verdict OR all of SPF/DKIM/DMARC failing (vs. any one), excludes known-approved Direct Send relay IPs, and excludes likely-legitimate bulk/newsletter traffic via BulkComplaintLevel.

Detects modifications or creation of InprocServer32 COM registry keys by suspicious processes like mshta.exe or powershell.exe, which is indicative of COM Hijacking for persistence or privilege escalation.

This rule detects potential reflective code injection or in-memory loading (fileless) where a DLL or PE image is loaded by mshta.exe or powershell.exe, but the module load event lacks a valid file path on disk (or indicates a device path). This behavior is often associated with the execution of malicious payloads such as the Amatera loader, where payloads are executed directly in memory to evade file-based security detections.

This rule detects potentially malicious command-line activity involving powershell.exe or mshta.exe that is initiated by a web browser process (chrome.exe, msedge.exe, firefox.exe, or iexplore.exe). It monitors for indicators such as encoded commands, usage of Invoke-Expression, download cradles, hidden window flags, and specific known IOCs, correlating these events with recent browser activity to identify potential drive-by download or browser-based exploitation attempts.

This rule detects the presence of 'winpty-agent.exe' or 'winpty.dll' in proximity to 'node.zip' or 'build.zip' files within common user-writable or temporary directories ('AppData\Local\Temp', 'AppData\Roaming', 'ProgramData', 'Users\Public'). This pattern is often associated with the staging and execution of malicious tools or command-line wrappers in non-standard locations, bypassing legitimate application installation directories.

Detects the execution of node.exe or electron.exe with command-line arguments indicative of browser automation (e.g., launching headless browsers, cookie access) when executed from high-risk, writable directories like AppData\Temp, AppData\Roaming, ProgramData, or Users\Public. This behavior is frequently associated with information-stealing malware or unauthorized browser automation.

Detects Microsoft 365 sign-in events where a session token is reused without a fresh MFA challenge, originating from known residential proxy service providers. This behavior is indicative of threat actors using stolen session tokens (Session Replay) to bypass MFA protections.

Detects a specific adversary pattern termed 'Phantom Deal' where a user is socially engineered into disabling their VPN (by claiming a link won't open), followed immediately by a rapid succession of accesses to the same tracking or canary link from that user account. The rule correlates sign-in events indicating a shift in VPN or MFA context with subsequent bursts of URL clicks.

Detects the gitlab-triage automation tool being invoked with a personal access token scoped to the broad 'api' permission rather than a narrower issue/MR-only scope, inflating the blast radius if the token leaks.
