This rule detects the execution of known offensive security and post-exploitation toolsets (such as Impacket, Metasploit, CrackMapExec, or NetExec) when initiated from virtualization processes like QEMU. This pattern is indicative of an adversary executing malicious payloads from within a virtual machine or using virtualization software as a proxy for malicious activity on the host.

Detects the creation of files with extensions commonly associated with web shells (.php, .aspx, .jsp) within typical web application directories by common web server processes such as httpd, nginx, php-cgi, and w3wp. This activity is indicative of a potential web shell deployment for persistent access or command execution.

Detects the simultaneous execution of QEMU virtualization processes and post-exploitation tools (Metasploit, Impacket, Havoc, NXC) on the same host. This combination is indicative of an adversary using a local virtual machine to tunnel or pivot lateral movement activities while leveraging post-exploitation frameworks on the host system, a behavior observed in specific campaigns.

Detects Node.js processes accessing sensitive configuration and credential files such as AWS credentials, .npmrc tokens, SSH keys, and Docker configurations. This behavior is consistent with infostealer activity, including malicious supply chain attacks designed to harvest developer secrets from local filesystems.

Detects cross-process memory injection techniques indicative of the Havoc framework's Demon agent. The rule monitors for Windows API injection sequences (VirtualAllocEx, WriteProcessMemory, CreateRemoteThread/NtCreateThreadEx), reflective image loads into explorer.exe, and Linux /proc/pid/mem direct memory writes used by the agent to persist or execute in-memory.

This rule detects the installation, service configuration, and key management activities associated with the OpenSSH server on both Windows and Linux environments. It monitors for commands related to installing OpenSSH capabilities or packages, starting the sshd service, modifying SSH registry keys on Windows, creating or modifying configuration files (sshd_config), and updating authorized_keys files. It also flags inbound network connections to non-standard or default SSH ports originating from external IP ranges.

Detects AI coding extensions (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf, Claude) spawning Node.js or Python child processes to execute potential Model Context Protocol (MCP) server configurations located in non-standard, potentially untrusted workspace paths. This behavior is associated with the exploitation of vulnerabilities like CVE-2026-12957, where adversaries leverage MCP to gain unauthorized command execution.

Detects anomalous child process execution from PHP web handler processes (e.g., php-fpm, php-cgi) indicative of exploitation of the StreamBucket SOAP RCE vulnerability. The rule identifies spawning of common shell tools or access to sensitive process memory files (/proc/self/maps or /proc/self/mem) associated with ASLR defeat techniques used in this exploit chain.

This rule detects post-exploitation activity related to the exploitation of PHP StreamBucket SOAP deserialization vulnerabilities. It monitors for child process execution from PHP web server processes (e.g., php-fpm, php.exe), the creation of specific proof-of-concept (PoC) marker files, and the presence of identified exploit script filenames on disk.

Detects exploitation of CVE-2026-48558 in SimpleHelp RMM software. This vulnerability allows an attacker to bypass OIDC identity token signature verification, leading to unauthorized creation of a privileged Technician account and MFA bypass, as observed in the Sua Sponte / SHADOW#REACTOR campaigns.

007
Detects evidence of CVE-2026-48558 exploitation, where SimpleHelp servers fail to cryptographically verify OIDC tokens. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to create privileged technician accounts and bypass Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). The rule monitors for 'New Anon' log tags in OIDC authentication flows or unauthorized HTTP POST requests to SimpleHelp technician management endpoints.

Detects anomalous activity consistent with the Velvet Ant 'Operation Highland' methodology, which leverages Nginx/FastCGI to bridge external requests to internal SSH execution. The rule monitors three conditions: 1) HTTP POST requests to internal endpoints containing SSH-related command parameters; 2) suspicious Nginx configuration modifications or reload events; and 3) spawning of SSH processes by FastCGI handlers. Findings are correlated by time and entity to identify potential persistence or lateral movement mechanisms.

Detects outbound network connections to common Tor relay and exit ports (9001, 9050) initiated by processes other than authorized Tor clients. This activity is often associated with threat actors, including Volt Typhoon, using Tor to obfuscate command-and-control (C2) traffic.

Detects potential Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) attacks targeting the Flocci API Gateway using Velocity Template Language (VTL). The rule monitors for malicious VTL patterns in network traffic, subsequent OS command execution, anomalous file creation indicating RCE, and IAM scope bypass patterns in cloud environment logs.

Detects Claude or Node-based AI coding agents spawning child processes (e.g., bash, python) to execute commands commonly associated with repository setup, environment configuration, or potential malicious activity (e.g., base64 decoding, network connections, shell spawning). This is intended to identify indirect prompt injection where an AI agent is manipulated into executing unauthorized commands.
