This analytic detects suspicious data transfer activities involving the use of the `split` syscall with the `-b` option, which specifies the size of each output file. This technique can be used by attackers to evade detection by breaking large files into smaller parts, bypassing size-based security controls, and facilitating covert exfiltration of sensitive data. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized use of the `split` syscall with a specified block size, this analytic helps identify potential data exfiltration attempts.

This analytic identifies the bulk creation of ransomware notes (e.g., .txt, .html, .hta files) on an infected machine. It leverages Sysmon EventCode 11 to detect multiple instances of these file types being created within a short time frame (10 seconds). A detection is triggered if 15 or more unique readme paths are observed. This activity is a strong indicator of an active ransomware attack, where the attacker is notifying the victim of the encryption. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to widespread data encryption, rendering critical files inaccessible and potentially causing significant operational disruption.

The analytic detects a high volume of outbound web traffic, specifically over 1GB of data sent to a URL within a 2-minute window. It leverages web access logs to identify significant uploads by analyzing the sum of bytes out. This activity is significant as it may indicate potential data exfiltration by malware or malicious insiders. If confirmed as malicious, this behavior could lead to unauthorized data transfer, resulting in data breaches and loss of sensitive information. Immediate investigation is required to determine the legitimacy of the transfer and mitigate any potential threats.

The following analytic detects attempts to exploit the ConnectWise ScreenConnect CVE-2024-1709 vulnerability, which allows attackers to bypass authentication via alternate paths or channels. It leverages Nginx access logs to identify web requests to the SetupWizard.aspx page, indicating potential exploitation. This activity is significant as it can lead to unauthorized administrative access and remote code execution. If confirmed malicious, attackers could create administrative users and gain full control over the affected ScreenConnect instance, posing severe security risks. Immediate remediation by updating to version 23.9.8 or above is recommended.

The following analytic identifies potential exploitation of the WordPress Bricks Builder plugin RCE vulnerability. It detects HTTP POST requests to the URL path "/wp-json/bricks/v1/render_element" with a status code of 200, leveraging the Web datamodel. This activity is significant as it indicates an attempt to exploit CVE-2024-25600, a known vulnerability that allows remote code execution. If confirmed malicious, an attacker could execute arbitrary commands on the target server, leading to potential full system compromise and unauthorized access to sensitive data.

Detects potential command injection attempts in the body of HTTP POST requests. Attackers, such as those operating the RondoDoX botnet, exploit unsanitized input fields in web interfaces of SOHO routers, IoT devices, and other applications to execute arbitrary commands. This rule looks for common command-line tools and shell characters within the POST body, particularly in requests targeting parameters known to be vulnerable.

This analytic detects instances where web or application server processes (such as Java, Tomcat, Apache, Nginx, Node, Caddy, IIS, PHP) spawn a Linux or Windows shell. This activity is highly indicative of successful exploitation, potentially related to vulnerabilities like Log4Shell (CVE-2021-44228) or Spring4Shell (CVE-2022-22965), leading to unauthorized command execution, privilege escalation, or persistent access. The detection leverages Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) telemetry, focusing on parent-child process relationships and process names.

The following analytic identifies the execution of RAR utilities to archive files on a system. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names, GUIDs, and command-line arguments. This activity is significant as threat actors, including red-teamers and malware like DarkGate, use RAR archiving to compress and exfiltrate collected data from compromised hosts. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to the unauthorized transfer of sensitive information to command and control servers, posing a severe risk to data confidentiality and integrity.

Detects data leakage and exfiltration attempts targeting Ollama model metadata and configuration endpoints. Adversaries repeatedly query /api/show, /api/tags, and /api/v1/models to systematically extract sensitive model information including architecture details, fine-tuning parameters, system paths, Modelfile configurations, and proprietary customizations. Multiple inspection attempts within a 15-minute window indicate automated exfiltration of valuable intellectual property such as custom model configurations, system prompts, and internal model specifications. This activity represents unauthorized data disclosure that could enable competitive intelligence gathering, model replication, or preparation for advanced attacks against the AI infrastructure.

This analytic identifies the execution of suspicious processes, such as `cmd.exe`, `powershell.exe`, or `bash.exe`, when they are spawned by web server processes like `w3wp.exe` or `nginx.exe`. This behavior is a strong indicator of WebShell activity, where an adversary exploits a web application vulnerability to gain persistent access and command execution capabilities on the web server. Successful exploitation could lead to arbitrary command execution, privilege escalation, and data exfiltration.

The following analytic identifies attempts to access the Remote ShellServlet on a web server, specifically targeting Confluence servers vulnerable to CVE-2023-22518 and CVE-2023-22515. It leverages web data to detect URLs containing "*plugins/servlet/com.jsos.shell/*" with a status code of 200. This activity is significant as it is commonly associated with web shells and other malicious behaviors, potentially leading to unauthorized command execution. If confirmed malicious, attackers could gain remote code execution capabilities, compromising the server and potentially the entire network.
