This rule detects attempts to clear network connection history by deleting the wtmp log file via an SSH connection. The rule specifically looks for the command 'rm -rf /var/log/wtmp' being sent over TCP port 22 (SSH). This activity is often associated with defense evasion tactics used by attackers to remove forensic evidence.

This rule detects potential memory injection attempts on Linux systems via an SSH session. It specifically looks for the strings "/proc/" and "/mem" within TCP traffic directed to an SSH server ($HOME_NET 22). This combination of strings suggests an attempt to access or manipulate process memory, which is a common technique used by attackers for privilege escalation or code injection.

Detects instances where an executable is deleted immediately after execution, a common defense evasion technique used by memory-resident malware like the JDY botnet. This rule specifically looks for shell processes executing 'chmod +x' or 'chmod 777' followed by 'rm' commands, often chained with '&&', ';', or '||', indicating immediate self-deletion after execution.

This rule detects a high volume of network connections (10 or more within an hour) from a single process to remote URLs containing 'artifact' or 'maven' on standard HTTP (port 80) or HTTPS (port 443) ports. This activity could indicate legitimate software development or build processes, but also potentially malicious activities such as supply chain compromise, data staging, or exfiltration of development-related artifacts.
