107
Detects the unauthorized addition or peering of rogue devices within a Cisco SD-WAN fabric. This rule monitors vManage and vBond logs for successful peering or registration events that correlate with known rogue indicators, such as certificate validation failures, mismatching system information, or untrusted peer identities. This activity is often indicative of attackers attempting to gain persistent control over the SD-WAN infrastructure, potentially using authentication bypass vulnerabilities or stolen credentials.

007
Detects potential exploitation attempts against management interfaces of SOHO network devices (Cisco, Ubiquiti, Draytek) by monitoring for suspicious web request activity, specifically targeting paths like /admin, /cgi-bin, or /setup.cgi. The rule identifies high-volume or systematic scan patterns from external sources, which may indicate automated exploitation attempts (e.g., related to CVE-2026-35616).

104
Detects unauthorized persistence mechanisms on Cisco SD-WAN Manager, vSmart, and vBond nodes by monitoring for local account creation (e.g., useradd), modification of sensitive authentication files (/etc/passwd, /etc/shadow), and illicit SSH key placement in authorized_keys. This rule specifically monitors for known exploit paths involving the 'troot' account and related command-line activity indicative of unauthorized administrative access.

007
This rule monitors for suspicious activity on Linux-based SD-WAN appliances (e.g., vManage, vBond, vSmart) including unauthorized file deletion, log tampering, and credential backup manipulation. It specifically flags operations like removing system logs, deleting configuration/tenant files, or copying sensitive files like /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow, which are common indicators of post-exploitation activity or attempts to hide malicious footprints.

Detects unauthorized persistence mechanisms on Cisco SD-WAN management plane nodes (vManage, vSmart, vBond). The rule monitors for modifications to SSH authorized_keys files, execution of commands like ssh-keygen or user management utilities, and SSH authentication events or configuration changes (e.g., PermitRootLogin) indicative of backdoored access.

005
Detects unauthorized SSH public key authentication to the vmanage-admin account on Cisco SD-WAN devices. This behavior is indicative of potential unauthorized persistence or account manipulation using SSH keys. The rule also references monitoring for changes to the PermitRootLogin configuration, which is a common indicator of attempts to enable root access via SSH.

005
Detects rapid successive password changes to the default 'admin' account on Cisco SD-WAN controllers followed by a configuration rollback. This pattern indicates an adversary attempting to temporarily modify credentials for exploitation while attempting to evade detection by reverting to the original configuration state, specifically targeting NETCONF configuration commits.

005
Detects the creation or manipulation of the 'troot' root-privileged backdoor account on Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN controllers, associated with the UAT-8616 exploit chain. The rule monitors for direct modification of /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow files, usage of useradd, grep operations on passwd files, and execution of su to the troot account.

This rule detects unauthorized configuration of GRE tunnels on Cisco IOS-XE network devices, potentially indicating persistent command and control (C2) channel establishment via TCL injection or illicit configuration changes involving known attacker infrastructure (62.171.185.97). It correlates network traffic to the attacker IP with process-level activity involving suspicious configuration files, scripts, or device-specific command-line arguments.

This rule identifies suspicious command-line activity indicative of log manipulation, truncation, or deletion on Cisco SD-WAN controllers. It monitors for the execution of utilities like 'rm', 'shred', 'truncate', 'bash', 'cat', and 'echo' targeting critical system logs, including '/var/log/auth.log' and various 'vdebug' log files. By detecting these anti-forensic techniques, the rule flags potential attempts by adversaries to conceal post-exploitation activity or clear audit trails.
