Detects URL credential confusion attempts where an attacker injects an @ symbol into URL-based query parameters. By including an '@' character, the attacker forces a mismatch between how a hostname validator parses the URL (seeing a legitimate hostname like github.com as the userinfo component) and how the backend fetcher resolves the URL (ignoring the userinfo and resolving the host following the @ symbol), potentially enabling Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) or local file read bypasses.

Detects the execution of Perl-based SOCKS proxy tunneling activity on Linux systems, as observed in Velvet Ant operations. The rule identifies Perl processes that contain socket/fork/daemonization indicators when spawned by web server processes like Nginx, Apache, or common shells used in CGI contexts, suggesting the exploitation of a web application to establish an internal network pivot.

Detects path traversal attempts in web server access logs by searching for dot-dot-slash (../), dot-dot-backslash (..\), or their URL-encoded equivalents (..). These patterns are indicative of efforts to access files or directories outside the intended web root.

Detects instances where common web server processes initiate command interpreters or system utilities. This behavior is a common indicator of web shell execution, where an adversary uses a web application vulnerability to gain remote code execution on the underlying server.

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.

Detects HTTP POST requests containing multipart form data that include suspicious PHP functions commonly associated with webshells, such as eval(), base64_decode(), system(), or passthru(). This indicates a potential attempt to upload or execute a malicious PHP script on a web server.

This rule monitors for potential Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) exploitation by detecting web application processes (such as Java, Python, or Web Server binaries) that initiate child processes (such as shell interpreters or script engines) while their command line contains common SSTI markers or exploitation patterns like '{{7*7}}', 'subprocess.Popen', or 'java.lang.Runtime'. This indicates an attacker has successfully escalated from template injection to remote code execution.

Detects attempts to uninstall, disable, or remove ModSecurity Web Application Firewall (WAF) modules on IIS or Apache servers. This behavior often indicates an adversary attempting to impair security defenses by disabling WAF protection to facilitate further malicious activity, such as web shell deployment or exploitation.

Detects the removal or uninstallation of the ModSecurity Web Application Firewall (WAF) module across Windows (via appcmd.exe) and Linux (via package managers or apxs). Adversaries often disable security controls like ModSecurity to facilitate the exploitation of web vulnerabilities or to maintain persistence without triggering defensive alerts.

This rule monitors file system events for the creation of files with common web shell names (e.g., shell.php, cmd.php) within known web server directory paths (e.g., wwwroot, inetpub). The detection of these specific file names in directories typically used for serving web content is a strong indicator of a potential web shell deployment.

This rule detects potential Log4Shell (CVE-2021-44228) exploitation attempts by identifying JNDI injection patterns in web request headers, process command lines, and syslog messages. It further identifies suspicious outbound network callbacks to known malicious infrastructure associated with these exploitation attempts.

Detects potential privilege escalation attempts against a MyBB forum by monitoring POST requests to administrative endpoints. Specifically, it flags session activity that includes creating new users with admin group assignments (usergroup=4) or accessing sensitive administrative modules (config, tools, style, user) from within the admin control panel.

Detects remote code execution (RCE) attempts targeting Flowise/floci API Gateway services through Velocity Template Language (VTL) server-side template injection. The rule monitors for malicious payload patterns involving Java class reflection (e.g., ProcessBuilder) and unauthorized access attempts through API Gateway endpoints, including potential IAM scope bypass signatures.

Detects unauthorized attempts to escalate privileges within the MyBB Admin Control Panel (ACP) by creating a new user account with administrator privileges (group 4). This rule identifies when an account with limited management permissions exploits the ACP to assign a new user to the administrator group, effectively bypassing intended permission restrictions.

Detects interaction with the WordPress Theme Editor utility immediately followed by a file modification to functions.php, indicative of the ErrTraffic deployment phase. This activity is often used by adversaries to establish persistence on compromised WordPress sites by injecting malicious code.

Detects the presence and execution of the 'mybb_limited_acp_to_admin' PoC script, as well as suspicious child process creation originating from web server or PHP processes when the command line includes 'admincp'. This is indicative of potential web exploitation or the use of a web shell within the MyBB Administrative Control Panel environment.

This rule monitors web traffic logs for requests targeting administrative URI paths or containing the username 'admin' in the 'X-WEBAUTH-USER' header. It specifically filters out requests originating from trusted reverse proxies, identifying potential attempts to bypass authentication by manually injecting administrative headers.

Detects common web server processes (IIS, Apache, Nginx, PHP, Tomcat) spawning command-line interpreters or utilities (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, wscript.exe, cscript.exe, certutil.exe). This pattern is often indicative of exploitation of a web application to gain command execution on the host.

Detects HTTP requests that reference or serve the 'cors_exploit_poc.html' file, which is associated with the MexicanMafia (Operation Escaneo) actor's method of exploiting Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) misconfigurations. This exploit attempts to hijack active administrative sessions by leveraging CORS with 'withCredentials=true'.

Detects HTTP requests where the URI or request body contains indicators of internal network references (e.g., localhost, 127.0.0.1, or RFC 1918 private IP address ranges). This pattern is consistent with Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attempts, where an attacker tries to force a vulnerable web application to perform unauthorized requests to internal resources.
