This rule detects suspicious HTTP request bodies containing the 'LD_PRELOAD' environment variable assignment, targeting common temporary or writable directories. This behavior is indicative of an attempt to perform dynamic linker hijacking on a Linux system to inject malicious shared libraries into target processes.
This rule detects DNS queries containing an exceptionally long subdomain label (50 or more characters). Such patterns are often indicative of DNS tunneling techniques where data is encoded within the subdomain portion of a DNS query to bypass network security controls or establish command-and-control channels.
This rule detects HTTP directory traversal attempts by inspecting incoming URI requests for common path traversal sequences such as '../', '..%2F', '..%2f', '..%5C', or '..%5c'. Attackers use these sequences to escape the web root directory and access unauthorized files on the server.
Detects classic SQL injection attack patterns within incoming HTTP requests, such as UNION SELECT statements, boolean-based tautologies (1=1), table dropping commands, or common URL-encoded quote characters.
Detects multiple failed SSH authentication attempts against a server from a single source within a short timeframe, which is indicative of a brute force password attack.
Detects incoming HTTP POST requests directed at PHP, ASPX, or JSP files that contain suspicious command execution patterns (such as cmd=, exec=, system(, or eval()). This behavior is highly indicative of an attacker interacting with a web shell to execute unauthorized commands on the server.
This rule detects outbound FTP traffic containing the 'STOR' command, which is used in the FTP protocol to upload files to a remote server. This behavior is a common indicator of unauthorized data exfiltration.
Detects the presence of the 'PSEXESVC' named pipe activity over SMB, which is a hallmark indicator of the PsExec tool being used to facilitate remote execution and lateral movement.
Detects network traffic containing the Java Serialization magic header 'AC ED 00 05'. This sequence is commonly used to initiate Java deserialization attacks, which can lead to remote code execution if the application insecurely deserializes untrusted data.
Detects network traffic indicative of the EternalBlue (MS17-010) exploit attempt against SMBv1 services. The rule specifically looks for SMB packets with transaction command patterns associated with this exploit, which was commonly used by the WannaCry ransomware.
Detects incoming HTTP traffic targeting Apache Struts servers, attempting to exploit CVE-2017-5638 by injecting malicious OGNL (Object-Graph Navigation Language) expressions within the 'Content-Type' header.
Detects repeated SSH connection attempts to a server over a short duration (10+ attempts in 60 seconds), which is characteristic of credential stuffing or brute-force password guessing attacks against the SSH service.
Detects HTTP POST requests characteristic of Emotet Epoch 4 and 5 C2 communication. The rule monitors for specific URI patterns, the presence of a 'Cookie' header, and a base64-encoded request body exceeding 80 characters, which are indicative of Emotet malware beaconing activity.
Detects TLS/SSL traffic patterns characteristic of Metasploit Meterpreter reverse HTTPS command-and-control communication, specifically targeting the use of default, self-signed certificates with a subject line containing a bare wildcard (CN=*) in the common name field, a common artifact of unconfigured Metasploit payloads.
Detects the initial handshake communication pattern associated with AsyncRAT, characterized by a specific base64-encoded configuration blob sent to external non-standard ports (6606, 7707, 8808) as identified by the Snort rule logic.
Detects common SQL injection patterns within the HTTP URI query string. The rule monitors established network traffic to web servers and uses regex matching to identify attempts to use SQL keywords like UNION SELECT, OR 1=1 boolean-based attacks, blind SQL injection techniques (sleep/benchmark), and attempts to access information_schema metadata tables.
Detects DNS TXT query responses containing anomalously large RDATA payloads (exceeding 100 bytes). Large TXT records are frequently used in DNS tunneling or data exfiltration scenarios to smuggle data out of a network while bypassing traditional network security controls. The rule applies a threshold limit to identify persistent, potentially malicious exfiltration activity from a specific source over a 60-second window.
Detects multiple TCP connection attempts to port 22 (SSH) from the same source within a 60-second window, which is indicative of a brute-force or password guessing attack against SSH services.
Detects common XSS attack patterns within HTTP URI requests, specifically monitoring for script tags or event handler attributes such as 'onerror' and 'onload' which are used to execute malicious JavaScript in a user's browser.
This rule monitors for FTP 'STOR' commands followed by large data transfers (exceeding 64KB) initiated from internal hosts to external destinations. This pattern is often indicative of data exfiltration using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
This rule monitors DNS query traffic for unusually long, encoded subdomain labels (50 characters or more). Such patterns are indicative of data exfiltration or command-and-control (C2) communication using DNS tunneling tools like iodine or dnscat2, which encapsulate non-DNS protocols within the DNS query structure to evade network inspection.
