This YARA rule detects the Skuld infostealer by identifying specific byte patterns associated with its functionalities. These functionalities include retrieving the MAC address of the infected system, enumerating files (likely for data collection), taking screenshots, and specifically targeting Discord backup codes. The rule looks for a combination of these distinct code patterns within a PE file (indicated by the MZ header).

Detects update checks performed by Advanced IP Scanner and Advanced Port Scanner utilities. These utilities are often used for network reconnaissance and can be considered Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUA) in some environments. The rule specifically looks for requests to '/checkupdate.php' with a set of specific query parameters, indicating an update check from these tools.

This analytic identifies high-severity intrusion events based on the classification assigned to Snort rules within Cisco Secure Firewall logs. It leverages Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense logs and focuses on events classified as: A Network Trojan was Detected, Successful Administrator Privilege Gain, Successful User Privilege Gain, Attempt to Login By a Default Username and Password, Known malware command and control traffic, Known malicious file or file based exploit, Known client side exploit attempt, Large Scale Information Leak. These classifications typically represent significant threats such as remote code execution, credential theft, lateral movement, or malware communication. Detection of these classifications should be prioritized for immediate investigation.

This analytic identifies Snort signatures that have triggered only once in the past 7 days across all Cisco Secure Firewall IntrusionEvent logs. While these rules typically do not trigger in day-to-day network activity, their sudden appearance may indicate early-stage compromise, previously unseen malware, or reconnaissance activity against less commonly exposed services. Investigating these outliers can provide valuable insight into new or low-noise adversary behaviors.

This analytic identifies internal systems that generate a high volume of intrusion detection events within a 30-minute window, specifically leveraging Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense logs. It counts hosts that trigger 15 or more Snort-based signatures. A sudden increase in intrusion alerts from a single host can indicate malicious activity such as malware execution, command-and-control communication, vulnerability scanning, or lateral movement. It may also be caused by misconfigured software. Systems exhibiting this pattern require prompt investigation as repeated Snort rule matches are often early indicators of compromise or active exploitation.

The analytic identifies access denied errors when attempting to invoke AWS Bedrock models. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs to detect when a user or service receives an AccessDenied error when calling the InvokeModel API. This activity is significant as it may indicate an adversary attempting to access Bedrock models with insufficient permissions after compromising credentials. If confirmed malicious, this could suggest reconnaissance activities or privilege escalation attempts targeting generative AI resources, potentially leading to data exfiltration or manipulation of model outputs.

The following analytic identifies unauthenticated requests to Kubernetes cluster pods. It detects this activity by analyzing GCP Pub/Sub messages for audit logs where the response status code is 401, indicating unauthorized access attempts. This activity is significant for a SOC because it may indicate reconnaissance or scanning attempts by an attacker trying to identify vulnerable pods. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, allowing the attacker to exploit vulnerabilities within the cluster, potentially compromising sensitive data or gaining control over the Kubernetes environment.

This analytic identifies Snort intrusion signatures that have been triggered by ten or more distinct internal IP addresses within a one-hour window. It leverages Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense logs and focuses on the IntrusionEvent event type to detect activity that may indicate broad targeting or mass exploitation attempts. This behavior is often associated with opportunistic scanning, worm propagation, or automated exploitation of known vulnerabilities across multiple systems. If confirmed malicious, this could represent the early phase of a coordinated attack aiming to gain a foothold on several hosts or move laterally across the environment.

The following analytic identifies a high number of AccessDenied attempts to list AWS Bedrock foundation models. It leverages AWS CloudTrail logs to detect when a user or service experiences multiple failures when calling the ListFoundationModels API. This activity is significant as it may indicate an adversary performing reconnaissance of available AI models after compromising credentials with limited permissions. Repeated failures could suggest brute force attempts to enumerate accessible resources or misconfigured access controls. If confirmed malicious, this could represent early-stage reconnaissance before attempting to access or manipulate Bedrock models or knowledge bases.

This analytic detects an unusual number of Kerberos Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) requests for non-existing users from a single source endpoint. It leverages Windows Event ID 4768 and identifies anomalies using the 3-sigma statistical rule. This behavior is significant as it may indicate an adversary performing a user enumeration attack against Active Directory. If confirmed malicious, the attacker could validate a list of usernames, potentially leading to further attacks such as brute force or credential stuffing, compromising the security of the environment.

The following analytic detects unauthenticated requests to an Amazon EKS Kubernetes cluster, specifically identifying actions by the "system:anonymous" user. It leverages AWS CloudWatch Logs data, focusing on user agents and authentication details. This activity is significant as it may indicate unauthorized scanning or probing of the Kubernetes cluster, which could be a precursor to an attack. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or disruption of services within the Kubernetes environment.

This analytic detects internal hosts triggering multiple IDS signatures, which may include either more than 25 signatures against a single host or a single signature across over 25 destination IP addresses. Such patterns can indicate active vulnerability scanning activities within the network. By monitoring IDS logs, this detection helps identify and respond to potential vulnerability scanning attempts, enhancing the network's security posture and preventing potential exploits.
