Detects instances where curl.exe is spawned by cmd.exe or wscript.exe and uses the -o flag to save downloaded files into user-writable directories (e.g., Temp or AppData), a technique often used to stage secondary payloads during the exploitation process.

Detects the copying of the legitimate Windows curl.exe binary from System32 to a user-writable directory (such as AppData\Local\Temp) and renaming it. This is a common LOLBin (Living Off the Land Binary) technique used by adversaries to disguise the utility as a benign application to evade detection while facilitating the download of second-stage payloads.

Detects the execution of the Pester framework's Build.bat script, which is being abused as a LOLBAS (Living Off the Land Binary and Script) technique. This activity is typically characterized by being launched from an LNK file, often indicating a malicious dropper or secondary stage payload delivery.

Detects potential process injection attempts by unidentified executable files originating from suspicious directories (AppData or Temp) targeting critical system or service processes (e.g., explorer.exe, svchost.exe). The rule monitors CreateRemoteThread events and excludes signed dotnet host processes, characteristic of Hannibal Stealer behavior.

Detects the creation of a shortcut (LNK) file within the Windows Startup directory that points to a msedge.exe binary located in a non-standard, masqueraded location within the user's Local AppData path. This behavior is associated with the LucidPawn/LucidRook persistence mechanism.

This rule detects instances where AutoIt (AutoIt3.exe) is observed performing process injection or launching suspicious binaries (RegSvcs.exe or mobsync.exe). Attackers frequently use AutoIt for process automation and to execute malicious payloads, and leveraging legitimate binaries like RegSvcs.exe is a known technique for bypassing defenses.

003
Detects execution of WMI or PowerShell queries by HTA, WScript, or CScript processes to gather system information such as OSLanguage, BIOS, or hardware identifiers. This behavior is indicative of environment-awareness checks used by the Casbaneiro/Ousaban banking trojan to identify sandbox or virtualization analysis environments before proceeding with the infection.

003
Detects process execution events where a process is launched with command line arguments containing 's' as an isolated character (often indicative of token stealing tools like Incognito or similar utilities) combined with a discrepancy in the initiating process account or logon session, suggesting potential token duplication or impersonation.

Detects instances where the suspicious binary 'x47_bot.exe' performs process injection or hollows a process, followed by an attempt to gain or elevate privileges (such as via UAC bypass, token manipulation, or privilege checking) on the same host within a 15-minute window.

Detects instances where msbuild.exe is spawned from suspicious parent processes without valid project files and subsequently receives cross-process injection activity (such as CreateRemoteThread or WriteProcessMemory) within a short timeframe. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to use MSBuild to proxy malicious code execution.

Detects a potential process hollowing technique where 'Finalized.dll' (loaded from unconventional locations like a ComponentsFolder or System32) is used to spawn 'clspack.exe' in a suspended state from a non-standard path (e.g., AppData\Microsoft). This sequence indicates an attempt to mask malicious execution under a legitimate process name.

Detects potential persistence attempts via registry modifications involving rundll32.exe. The rule monitors for two patterns: registry keys associated with shell commands for specific file types triggering rundll32.exe, and registry 'Run' keys using a 'Locked' value name with a custom URI handler, often indicative of malware or suspicious persistence mechanisms.

Detects instances where a user account registers a new Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) method (such as TOTP or Authenticator app) shortly (within 30 minutes) after a high-risk or potentially anomalous sign-in event. This pattern is commonly associated with adversary-in-the-middle (AiTM) phishing attacks where an attacker captures an authenticated session and uses it to enroll a secondary, attacker-controlled MFA device for persistent account access.

This rule detects potential PowerShell script execution without spawning the standard powershell.exe process. It monitors for the loading of clr.dll and System.Management.Automation.dll into any process other than powershell.exe, which is a technique used by some malware families like SloppyRAT to execute PowerShell code directly within a compromised process memory space.

Detects rapid termination of specific mobile messenger applications (Max) within seconds of starting, while indicators of the Frida dynamic instrumentation tool are concurrently detected on the device. This pattern suggests the application is identifying the presence of a hooking/instrumentation environment and self-terminating as a defense mechanism. The detection is further correlated with failed connection attempts to the application's backend.
