This rule detects the execution of a Linux process where the command line contains environment variables related to dynamic linker debugging (LD_AUDIT, LD_DEBUG, or LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT). These variables can be abused by adversaries to load malicious libraries, bypass security controls.

This rule detects the use of specific Linux environment variables (LD_AUDIT, LD_DEBUG, LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT) in command lines. These variables can be abused for dynamic-link library (DLL) injection or other forms of process injection, allowing adversaries to execute arbitrary code or debug processes in a way that might bypass security controls.

Detects awk one-liners invoking system/exec, a common LOLBIN-style execution guardrail bypass.
For example, using environmental variables where an attacker modifies the environment variable to point to a malicious binary.

This rule detects the execution of the 'strip' utility on Linux systems, when it is used on a file located in common temporary directories or user home directories. Adversaries may use 'strip' to remove symbols from compiled binaries, making reverse engineering more difficult and potentially reducing file size, which can aid in obfuscation or evasion.

Detects the execution of the TruffleHog secret scanning tool. This tool is often used by attackers to find sensitive information like credentials in various data sources (filesystems, Git repositories, cloud storage, etc.). This rule identifies the process creation of TruffleHog and categorizes the type of scan being performed. It includes exclusions for legitimate CI/CD environments or security scanners.

This rule detects attempts to remove AppArmor profiles on Linux systems. AppArmor is a Linux security module that allows system administrators to restrict program capabilities with per-program profiles. An adversary might attempt to remove or disable AppArmor profiles to bypass restrictions and perform unauthorized actions.

Detects attempts to modify file timestamps on Linux systems using the 'touch' command with the '-r' or '--reference' flags. This technique, known as timestomping, allows adversaries to change the access and modification times of a file to match those of another file, to evade detection or blend malicious files with legitimate ones.

This rule detects network connections (both inbound and outbound) on TCP/UDP port 18789, excluding connections initiated by processes from well-known publishers like Microsoft, Apple, and Google. This port is not commonly used by legitimate applications and could indicate the presence of custom malware, command and control (C2) communication, or other unauthorized network activity.

Detects attempts to disable SELinux by executing the 'setenforce 0' command on Linux systems. Disabling SELinux can reduce the security posture of a system and is often performed by attackers to simplify post-exploitation activities or to bypass security controls.

This rule detects the execution of the 'make' command with a '-f' flag pointing to a makefile located in common temporary or writable directories. This behavior can be indicative of an adversary attempting to execute arbitrary commands or escalate privileges by leveraging the 'make' utility to process a malicious makefile from a non-standard location.

This rule detects suspicious command execution patterns involving the Lua interpreter on Linux systems. It specifically looks for Lua interpreter processes executing commands that run suspicious functions. These functions can be abused by adversaries to execute arbitrary commands, establish network connections, or load dynamic libraries, indicating potential malicious activity.

This rule detects DNS queries made to a list of known malicious domains. These domains are often associated with malware command and control (C2) infrastructure or other malicious activities. Monitoring such queries can help identify compromised systems attempting to communicate with adversary-controlled resources.
