Detects incoming HTTP requests to Microsoft Exchange servers that match patterns indicative of exploitation attempts for the ProxyLogon SSRF vulnerability (CVE-2021-26855). This includes detecting specific manipulation of the Autodiscover service and the injection of X-BEResource or X-AnonResource-Backend headers, which were commonly used during the initial access phase of this campaign.
Detects successful POST requests to the WordPress admin-ajax.php endpoint utilizing the 'wwlc_file_upload_handler' action with an empty referrer header. This pattern is characteristic of attackers attempting to upload malicious files via vulnerable WordPress plugins to establish web shell persistence.

This pattern is characteristic of attackers attempting to upload malicious files via vulnerable WordPress plugins to establish web shell persistence.
Detects post-exploitation shell activity spawned from the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe), narrowed to command lines carrying encoded/obfuscated PowerShell flags, remote-download cradles, or basic recon/persistence commands (whoami, certutil, bitsadmin, schtasks, reg add). This reduces noise from benign w3wp.exe-initiated automation while retaining the behavioral pattern seen in the Telerik UI for ASP.NET AJAX unauthenticated RCE chain (webshell/in-memory DLL execution dropping to a shell).
This rule detects activity associated with the exploitation of PaperCut vulnerabilities. It looks for connections to known malicious IP addresses, the presence of specific credential harvesting tools, reconnaissance commands (whoami, tasklist) executed by the PaperCut application (pc-app.exe), suspicious PowerShell downloads of AnyDesk, and unauthorized access to PaperCut configuration files or log files containing known exploit strings.
Detects the forged Next.js Server Action invocation used to deliver the
RCE payload after the encryption key has been disclosed. The request is
a multipart/form-data POST containing a "$ACTION_REF_*" field together
with the numbered "$ACTION_<ref>:0/1/2" descriptor fields (action id,
argument list, base64-encoded AES-GCM ciphertext for the closure-bound
args) plus one additional attacker-controlled form field carrying the
payload. Legitimate Server Action calls originate only from the app's
own client bundle and do not normally arrive as raw multipart posts
crafted with a generic HTTP client / no browser fingerprint, especially
shortly after a manifest-disclosure request from the same source (see
companion rule "Next.js Server-Reference-Manifest Disclosure via
Backslash Path Traversal").

Detects the use of the 'tar' utility with the '--use-compress-program' flag, where the compression program specified is not a standard system compression tool. This pattern is commonly used by attackers to execute arbitrary payloads when tar extracts malicious archives.
This rule detects potential web shell creation on a Microsoft Exchange server by monitoring for suspicious child processes spawned by the IIS web server process (w3wp.exe) that correlate with the creation or modification of web-accessible script files (.aspx, .ashx, .asp, .dll) within the Exchange virtual directories (ecp, owa, aspnet_client). This pattern is consistent with common post-exploitation activities used by attackers to gain persistent access via web shells.
Detects in-memory modification of the ntdll.dll module to patch EtwEventWrite or EtwEventWriteFull functions, a technique used by adversaries to evade Windows event tracing and suppress telemetry. The rule specifically targets activities originating from w3wp.exe, consistent with behavior observed in IIS-hosted deployments like GhostContainer.

The rule specifically targets activities originating from w3wp.exe, consistent with behavior observed in IIS-hosted deployments like GhostContainer.
Detects potential web shell or malicious DLL deployment into Microsoft Exchange or IIS directories by the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe), as well as suspicious child process execution (such as command-line shells or credential discovery tools) spawned directly from IIS worker processes.
Detects potential web shell installation via WordPress administrative panels. The rule identifies a WordPress administrator session executing a theme installation request triggered by an external (off-site) referer, followed shortly thereafter by the creation of new PHP files within the WordPress themes directory. This pattern is often indicative of an attacker leveraging a compromised admin session to upload a backdoor.

Detects the spawning of suspicious processes like cmd, powershell, or certutil by the Exchange Server's web worker process (w3wp.exe), which is a common indicator of post-exploitation activity following an initial web vulnerability exploitation, such as ProxyLogon.
Detects instances where common Windows web server processes (w3wp.exe or UMWorkerProcess.exe) initiate suspicious child processes (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, etc.) within a short duration of a file modification event involving known potentially malicious DLL files (winfsp-x64.dll or DukeQt.dll), characteristic of web shell exploitation or post-compromise activity on Exchange/IIS servers.
Detects incoming HTTP requests to Microsoft Exchange servers that match patterns indicative of exploitation attempts for the ProxyLogon SSRF vulnerability (CVE-2021-26855). This includes detecting specific manipulation of the Autodiscover service and the injection of X-BEResource or X-AnonResource-Backend headers, which were commonly used during the initial access phase of this campaign.
Detects unauthenticated requests to the WordPress admin-ajax.php endpoint utilizing the 'super_create_nonce' action. This action allows an unauthenticated user to generate a valid session nonce, which is a critical bypass mechanism often required for the exploitation of vulnerabilities within the Super Forms plugin, such as CVE-2026-14894.
Detects web requests to 'wp-admin/theme-install.php' containing suspicious query parameters that indicate an attempt to force an unauthenticated theme installation via a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) exploit (Click2Shell). The rule identifies requests with malicious payloads in the 'theme' parameter, specifically looking for indicators that attempt to bypass CSRF protections when originating from an external site or a non-admin session context.
