Detects execution of shell scripts where a remote resource is fetched via curl with silent flags and immediately piped into a shell interpreter. This pattern is commonly associated with the delivery of malicious payloads or installation of unauthorized tools.

The following analytic detects the use of the crontab command with the list parameter (-l) to enumerate scheduled tasks configured in the invoking user's crontab on Linux systems.
Adversaries may use this information to identify persistence mechanisms, scheduled execution, or potential privilege escalation opportunities.
The use of crontab -l is also common administrative activity and may require tuning based on the executing user, parent process, and environment.

Detects anomalous outbound network connections from the Grafana MCP (Model Context Protocol) server process to internal private IP address ranges. The rule compares current network activity against a 14-day baseline to filter out known data sources, identifying potentially unauthorized lateral movement or internal network probing via server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities.

Detects Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attempts targeting vulnerable versions of Grafana MCP Server (versions < 1.1.0). The rule identifies requests attempting to access sensitive internal or cloud-metadata endpoints (e.g., 169.254.169.254, localhost, internal subnets) via the X-Grafana-URL header.

This rule detects attempts by users to disable or clear command line history logs for shell environments, including PowerShell (e.g., modifying PSReadLine history) and Unix-like shells (e.g., unset HISTFILE, setting HISTSIZE to 0, or disabling history collection). Such actions are frequently performed by adversaries to hinder incident response and forensic analysis by obscuring their post-exploitation activity.

Detects the disabling of host-based firewalls (Windows Filtering Platform/Advanced Firewall, iptables, or nftables) via command-line tools. The rule excludes common management tools, system accounts, and events where the firewall is re-enabled within a short timeframe, effectively filtering for potentially unauthorized attempts to impair security defenses.

Detects command-line execution of tools (route, netsh, sysctl) intended to modify host routing tables or enable IP forwarding. Such activity on workstation endpoints may indicate an attempt to bridge network segments, bypass network security boundaries, or facilitate lateral movement/C2 communications.

Detects potential remote service session hijacking by monitoring for RDP session ID reuse by a different user or unauthorized SSH session reattachment (e.g., tmux/screen hijacking). It correlates logon events with process execution to identify instances where an existing session is accessed by an account other than the original owner, while excluding legitimate service/support account activity.

Detects potential remote code execution (RCE) attempts targeting vulnerable Sub-Store instances (versions < 2.38.2). The detection identifies web browsers making network connections to local ports (38324) associated with Sub-Store, followed by the spawning of shell processes (cmd, powershell, bash, sh) by the Node.js process hosting the application.

Detects evidence of persistence mechanisms associated with the StyleSmuggler implant. The rule monitors for malicious crontab entries and file system activity related to gvfsd-user, .gvfsd, and /tmp/.kw_ artifacts.

Detects a discrepancy between the SHA256 hash of a running process image (via /proc/<pid>/exe on Linux) and the hash of the corresponding binary file on disk. This behavior is indicative of process memory manipulation, such as fileless execution or binary replacement, where the code currently running in memory does not match the original file on disk.

This rule detects a high volume of inbound network connection attempts to the default Redis port (6379) originating from local loopback or local host addresses, excluding known legitimate Redis and web server processes. This activity is indicative of potential unauthorized access attempts or exploitation of local Redis instances.

Detects the presence of PHP code execution patterns (eval, base64_decode, system, shell_exec) injected into Magento log or report files (var/report/, var/log/system.log), indicative of log poisoning used for web shell staging.

Detects the PoisonedRefresh implant's UNIX domain socket backdoor by (1) file activity on the uniquely-named /run/bigtlog.pipe socket initiated by an Apache/httpd process, and (2) process command lines containing the implant's hardcoded authentication token. Removed the earlier generic 'bash spawned by httpd' heuristic, which fired on legitimate CGI/mod_php/admin automation that shells out from the web server and was the dominant false-positive source.

Detects PHP scripts that masquerade as WordPress cache classes but contain functionality for decrypting commands using AES-256-CBC and executing them via shell_exec. The detection identifies the presence of hardcoded encryption keys, use of php://input, and common PHP obfuscation/encryption methods alongside shell execution functions.

Detects outbound web requests directed at public NPM mirrors and CDNs (unpkg, npmmirror, yarnpkg, jsdelivr) that contain strings matching known malicious package names associated with the 'Beamglea/ClickFix' campaign. This activity is typically indicative of a victim visiting a deceptive Cloudflare CAPTCHA phishing page designed to execute malicious scripts in the browser.

This rule detects processes with names commonly associated with system daemons (e.g., kworker, fc-cache, chronyd, gvfsd) that are executing from non-standard, suspicious directories such as /tmp/ or user-defined hidden folders. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to masquerade malicious binaries as legitimate system processes to evade detection.

This rule detects processes accessing '/proc/self/status' to read the 'TracerPID' field. Malware often uses this technique to detect if it is being debugged or traced by security analysis tools, allowing the process to terminate or change behavior to avoid analysis.
