This rule detects the installation of a LaunchAgent persistence mechanism on macOS. It specifically looks for the creation of a property list (.plist) file within the '~/Library/LaunchAgents/' directory, combined with the execution of the 'launchctl load' command, which is used to load and activate LaunchAgents. This technique is commonly used by malware, including infostealers, to establish persistence and survive system reboots.

Detects outbound network traffic from common web browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, etc.) to the typosquatted domain 'perplexity-ai.online'. This rule identifies behavior associated with a malicious browser extension ('Search for perplexity ai') that exfiltrates keystrokes and search queries captured via the browser's Omnibox functionality to an attacker-controlled server.

This rule monitors for network connections that occur over non-standard ports (STUN, MQTT) or to specific suspicious IP addresses and domains, while excluding known legitimate user-facing applications. The detection aims to identify potentially malicious command and control (C2) communication or unauthorized network activity performed by non-standard processes.

Detects Node.js or JavaScript runtimes executing code patterns commonly associated with GlassWorm-style supply chain attacks. The campaign abuses invisible Unicode variation selectors to hide malicious payloads that are decoded and executed through eval(). Investigate execution originating from repositories, package managers, VS Code extensions, or temporary development directories.

Detects a user mounting a deceptive .dmg file (e.g., posing as a crypto wallet or developer tool) resulting in the immediate execution of a hidden binary. The rule specifically looks for 'hdiutil attach' followed by a process execution from within a mounted volume that matches a common application or shell script path.

This rule detects network connections from internal hosts to identified C2 or phishing infrastructure associated with the threat actor group UNC1151 (also known as Ghostwriter). It monitors both host-based network events (via DeviceNetworkEvents) and centralized network security logs (via CommonSecurityLog) for traffic targeting a curated list of known malicious IP addresses.

Detects the unauthorized injection of the 'GEMINI_TRUST_WORKSPACE=true' environment variable via process command lines or shell environments. This rule identifies potential exploitation attempts related to CVE-2026-12537 by flagging instances where this variable is set outside of defined, trusted CI/CD runner environments.
