Detects the execution of wmic.exe when launched by uncommon parent processes, specifically mshta.exe or wscript.exe. These parent processes are often associated with the execution of malicious scripts (e.g., .hta or .vbs files), which may use wmic.exe for system discovery or execution of commands, a common pattern in file-based living-off-the-land attacks.

Detects Microsoft Entra OAuth 2.0 device authorization grant flow completion immediately followed by non-interactive API access from automated user agents like python-requests. This behavior is indicative of device code phishing kits, where an attacker tricks a user into entering a code and then programmatically hijacks the resulting session token.

Detects the execution of wscript.exe as a child process of mshta.exe, specifically when the wscript.exe command line contains references to .vbs or .js files. This behavioral pattern is often associated with malicious HTA files using mshta.exe as a proxy to execute secondary script payloads, a technique commonly leveraged for initial access and execution.

Detects the creation or modification of Windows Registry Run/RunOnce keys that reference msbuild.exe without typical build arguments. This is often used by adversaries to maintain persistence by executing malicious XML-based projects or inline C#/VB code via a trusted system utility.

Detects the creation or execution of a scheduled task masquerading as a Microsoft Update process. The task is configured to execute potentially malicious components, specifically identified by filenames such as userscreen.exe, UserInerfacePicture, or config.cat. This behavior is indicative of persistence and execution of malicious payloads, as seen in campaigns involving the NarwhalRAT loader.

Detects cmd.exe processes utilizing variable assignment and dynamic substring expansion to reconstruct and execute obfuscated PowerShell commands, a technique frequently observed in malicious LNK file decoy campaigns to evade static signature detection.

Detects unsigned or non-standard Python processes loading core Windows system modules like kernel32.dll or ntdll.dll. This behavior is consistent with NarwhalRAT's fileless execution technique, which utilizes ctypes to interact with low-level Windows APIs (VirtualAlloc, RtlMoveMemory, CFUNCTYPE) for in-memory payload allocation and execution, bypassing traditional disk-based detection.

Detects the execution of PowerShell scripts containing a combination of Base64 encoding, compression (Deflate/Gzip), and UTF-32 decoding. This specific layering is commonly used to obfuscate malicious payloads and evade signature-based detection mechanisms in PowerShell environments.

This rule detects the execution of LNK or HTA files from a WebDAV share (DavWWWRoot) using common Windows binaries like mshta.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe, or explorer.exe. This pattern is commonly associated with the 'ClickFix' technique, where users are lured into opening malicious files hosted on remote WebDAV shares to achieve code execution.

This rule detects PowerShell script blocks containing a suspicious combination of Base64-like character sets and Cyrillic characters. This technique is often used in obfuscated payloads to evade static analysis signatures or to hinder human readability by inserting non-Latin characters within encoded content, which may trigger different parsing behaviors in various environments.

Detects the use of legitimate Windows binaries (Rundll32, Wscript, Cscript, and Regsvr32) to execute scripts, HTML applications, or remote scriptlets. This pattern is commonly associated with adversary techniques to proxy execution of malicious code, bypass application controls, or retrieve payloads from remote servers.

Detects the execution of MSBuild.exe when spawned by a PowerShell process. This is a common pattern for proxying execution of malicious code, such as the LxBaseRAT, by leveraging MSBuild's inline task capability to execute C# or VB.NET code within a signed Microsoft binary.

Detects automated post-compromise mailbox reconnaissance following an anomalous OAuth device code sign-in that exhibits high-risk indicators. The rule identifies programmatic access to a high volume of mail items within a short window following suspicious token issuance, which is characteristic of automated scanning or data exfiltration tooling.

This rule detects a correlation between a successful user login from an IP address not previously seen for that specific user in the last 14 days, followed immediately (within 1 hour) by sensitive administrative operations performed by the same user, such as adding members to roles or modifying application permissions.
