This rule detects suspicious DLL side-loading activity. It looks for DLL files being loaded from common user-writable or temporary directories (like `\temp\` or `\users\`) by legitimate Windows processes such as `rundll32.exe`, `explorer.exe`, or `svchost.exe`. The rule specifically flags instances where a DLL is loaded more than 3 times within an hour by these processes, indicating potential malicious activity where an adversary might be attempting to execute their own malicious DLLs by hijacking the loading process of a legitimate application.
This rule detects the execution of 'mshta.exe' when its command line contains a URL pointing to a '.7z' archive. This behavior is suspicious as mshta.exe is often abused by adversaries to download and execute malicious content, and downloading an archive directly via mshta.exe is not a typical legitimate use case.
Detects suspicious process activity originating from WSMProvHost, suggesting potential lateral movement or remote command execution
This rule detects the loading of modules (DLLs or executables) from user-specific AppData folders that are not commonly observed across the environment. It specifically excludes common legitimate paths within AppData like 'Local\Programs' and 'Local\Temp' to reduce false positives. The rule identifies modules loaded by processes that also originate from an AppData folder, indicating potentially suspicious activity such as malware or custom tools operating from user-writable locations.
Detects rundll32.exe loading content directly from a UNC path. This behavior is rare in enterprise environments and was observed in ACR Stealer delivery chains.
Detects outbound internet communications generated by rundll32.exe, which is uncommon and frequently associated with malware execution, including ACR Stealer.
Flags Intune assignments to “All Devices” or “All Users,” which attackers may abuse for mass deployment.
Detects execution of CRYPTBASE.dll from non‑system directories, a technique used in the STX RAT campaign to hijack legitimate installers (e.g., CPUID HWMonitor, X‑VPN).
Detects PowerShell commands that reverse byte arrays before dynamically loading assemblies into memory, a behavior commonly associated with advanced malware loaders and fileless execution techniques. The rule specifically looks for PowerShell process command lines containing 'IO.File', 'System.Reflection.Assembly', 'Length-1', and '..0', which are indicative of byte array manipulation and in-memory assembly loading.
Detects Hero proxyware artifacts being written or modified within the Windows SysWOW64 directory. Presence of these files may indicate installation of unauthorized proxy services or abuse of enterprise endpoints for traffic relaying.
Identifies ScreenConnect client service execution initiated by trusted system processes (dfsvc.exe, services.exe) while referencing suspicious top-level domains (.top, .info, .site, .tk, .xyz, .pw, .ml, .club, .cf, ws) in the command line. This activity may indicate unauthorized remote access deployment or abuse of legitimate remote access tools.
Detects PowerShell commands using XOR operations together with execution primitives that may indicate obfuscated in-memory payload decoding. Specifically looks for 'powershell.exe' executing with '-bxor', '81', and either 'IEX' or 'Invoke-Expression' in the command line.
Identifies mshta.exe accessing externally hosted HTA content from a user-initiated Explorer session, potentially indicating malicious remote code execution.
Detects excessive caret (^) escaping in command lines, a common obfuscation technique used by attackers to evade detection and conceal malicious commands. The rule specifically looks for command-line executions by cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or pwsh.exe that contain more than 5 caret characters and a pattern of at least three alphanumeric characters immediately followed by a caret.
Detects mshta.exe launched from Windows Explorer to retrieve remote HTA content over HTTP, a technique frequently observed in phishing campaigns and initial access attacks.
This rule detects suspicious execution of rundll32.exe by looking for multiple instances of rundll32.exe executing with command lines containing both '.dll' and '/' characters from the same computer and account. This pattern can indicate an adversary attempting to proxy execution of malicious code via rundll32.exe.
Detects suspicious modifications to Registry Run and RunOnce keys that include common scripting or command execution keywords (powershell, cmd, .bat). This activity is often associated with persistence mechanisms where adversaries attempt to execute malicious code upon user login.
This rule detects suspicious DLL injection activity by identifying multiple DLL loads from unusual folders such as 'Temp', 'AppData', or 'Windows\Temp'. Adversaries often drop malicious DLLs into these directories and then inject them into legitimate processes to achieve persistence, privilege escalation, or defense evasion. The rule counts the number of DLL loads from these suspicious locations by the same initiating process on the same device, triggering an alert if five or more such loads occur, indicating a concerted malicious effort.
Detects Atlas RAT anti-analysis behavior by monitoring for registry queries or interactions with the Windows Defender Application Guard (WDAG) RunOnce registry key. This rule specifically looks for registry events where the key name contains "RunOnce" and the value name contains "WDAG", indicating an attempt by malware to detect or interact with a sandbox environment.
This rule detects the creation of new service principals or the assignment of new role assignments to existing service principals in Azure Active Directory. It specifically looks for assignments that grant high-privilege roles such as "Contributor", "Owner", or "Global Admin". The rule aggregates these changes by target and time, highlighting instances where multiple changes or distinct initiators are involved.
Detects unauthorized modification of the Google Chrome Secure Preferences file, specifically targeting the default search provider data to hijack browser searches. This behavior is actively used by malware such as FlutterShell to redirect all Chrome searches to attacker-controlled infrastructure.
