This rule detects HTTP responses where the 'Content-Type' header is 'application/json' and the response body contains both 'balance' and '0.00' (case-insensitive). This combination, especially in the context of a 'trojan-activity' classification, suggests a potential Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attack manipulating financial or account balance data within a JSON response to show a zero balance.
This rule detects attempts to manipulate stored records within an MSSQL database. It specifically looks for TCP traffic directed to port 1433 (the default MSSQL port) containing the keywords "UPDATE" and "SET" (case-insensitive) in the flow to the server. A threshold of 50 occurrences within 30 seconds from the same source IP is set to trigger an alert, indicating potential bulk data modification.
This rule detects attempts to manipulate database data on a remote MySQL server (port 3306) by identifying 'UPDATE' and 'SET' SQL commands within TCP traffic. It uses a threshold to alert on a high frequency of these commands from a single source, indicating potential malicious activity like data modification or integrity compromise.
Payload Ransomware Log File Creation
Cortex XDR
Detects the creation of 'payload.log', a specific log file utilized by Payload ransomware to track its operational parameters. This file is typically dropped at the root of the C:\ drive.
Detects error-log indicators of active CVE-2026-42945 (NGINX Rift) exploitation attempts
reported from May 2026: worker processes exiting on signal 11 after crafted requests against
vulnerable rewrite configurations. Pair with access-log URI anomaly rules on internet-facing NGINX.
reported from May 2026: worker processes exiting on signal 11 after crafted requests against
vulnerable rewrite configurations. Pair with access-log URI anomaly rules on internet-facing NGINX.
Identifies a risky sign-in to a known O365 landing page followed shortly by the creation of an inbox rule that deletes messages or moves them to junk/trash. This pattern frequently indicates account compromise (e.g., BEC or AiTM) attempting to hide malicious activity.
Detects the execution of the Restart-Computer cmdlet with the -Force flag via PowerShell, a technique used by a recent malware dropper to disrupt sandbox analysis.
Detects the creation or renaming of files to append the .nspire extension, a direct indicator of NightSpire ransomware encryption activity.
This rule detects the creation of files with names commonly associated with ransomware notes (e.g., 'ransom_note', 'decrypt_files', 'pay_ransom') and common text file extensions (.txt, .html, .htm). It summarizes these events by device and time, flagging devices where at least one such file is observed.
Detects the creation of files with names commonly associated with LockBit ransomware, such as '.lockbit', 'lockbit_note', or '.abcd'. This rule specifically looks for these file names being created on devices, which is indicative of ransomware activity.
This rule detects a DNS Amplification Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. It triggers an alert when UDP traffic destined for port 53 (DNS) on the home network has a data size greater than 512 bytes and exceeds a threshold of 100 packets within 5 seconds, tracked by destination IP address. This pattern is indicative of a DNS amplification attack where small queries result in large responses, overwhelming the target.
This rule detects potential DNS response spoofing or DNS hijacking attempts. It specifically looks for UDP traffic on port 53 (DNS) where a high number of responses (5 within 10 seconds) are observed for a given destination IP address, which could indicate an attacker attempting to inject malicious DNS responses.
MySQL Database DROP TABLE Attack
Suricata
This rule detects attempts to drop tables in a MySQL database. It specifically looks for the 'DROP TABLE' string in TCP traffic directed to the standard MySQL port (3306) on the home network. This activity is often indicative of malicious intent, such as data destruction or database tampering.
Detects RuntimeHost.exe launched from an unusual cache directory frequently associated with malware staging and cryptomining activity.
This rule detects potential command and control (C2) communication related to disk wiping activities. It specifically looks for the keywords "wipe" and "disk" (case-insensitive) within 50 bytes of each other in TCP traffic flowing from the server to the client. This pattern suggests a C2 server instructing a compromised client to perform disk wiping, which aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique T1561 (Disk Wipe) under the Impact tactic.
This rule detects an unusually high number of network connection events originating from a single device to a remote IP address within a one-minute interval. This behavior can be indicative of various malicious activities, including network scanning, port scanning, or a denial-of-service (DoS) attempt. It could also signal a compromised host attempting to establish numerous connections for command and control, data exfiltration, or further reconnaissance.
Detects attempts to delete Volume Shadow Copies using 'vssadmin' or 'wmic' commands, which is a common tactic used by ransomware to prevent system recovery.
This rule detects attempts by a device to resolve specific domain names known to be associated with ransomware killswitches. Successful resolution of these domains could indicate a ransomware infection attempting to halt its encryption process.
This rule detects suspicious file activity indicative of ransomware by monitoring for a high volume of file creations or renames where the filenames contain common ransomware-related extensions such as '.encrypted', '.locked', or '.ransom'. It aggregates these events over a one-hour period per device and triggers if 20 or more such events occur.
This rule detects potential ransomware activity by monitoring for a high volume of file creation or renaming events where the new file names end with common ransomware extensions such as '.encrypted', '.locked', or '.crypted'. It aggregates these events over 5-minute intervals and triggers if 50 or more such files are observed on a single device.
This rule detects repeated crashes and restarts of the SolarWinds Serv-U application, indicated by specific event log entries from 'Service Control Manager' or 'Application Error' sources. This pattern is consistent with known exploitation attempts targeting Serv-U.
