This rule monitors file system events for the creation of files with common web shell names (e.g., shell.php, cmd.php) within known web server directory paths (e.g., wwwroot, inetpub). The detection of these specific file names in directories typically used for serving web content is a strong indicator of a potential web shell deployment.

Detects REDCap-associated PHP or web server processes launching operating system command interpreters. GTIG observed INFINITERED using trojanised REDCap components and web shell functionality to execute arbitrary shell commands. This behaviour is highly unusual for normal REDCap operations and may indicate post-exploitation activity.

Detects PHP or web server processes launching archive and compression utilities. A compromised web application may use these tools to package REDCap files, database exports, credentials, or research data before exfiltration. This behaviour should be rare outside documented backup or deployment activity.

This rule detects suspicious downloads of Python packages from pypi.org or pypi.python.org by pip or python executables. It specifically looks for a high volume (5 or more) of downloads of common package names (numpy, requests, pandas, util, common) within a one-hour window from a single device. This could indicate an attempt to compromise the software supply chain by introducing malicious versions of popular packages.

This rule detects potential credential harvesting attempts by identifying a high volume of short-duration HTTP requests to common login, sign-in, verify, account, or authentication URI stems. It specifically looks for requests originating from user agents commonly associated with bots or scripting tools (e.g., 'bot', 'curl', 'python', 'powershell') and successful HTTP status codes (200). The 'short' session duration is inferred from small response sizes (less than 5000 bytes), suggesting automated access rather than human interaction.

This rule detects suspicious network connections originating from specific processes (DbgView64.exe or VirtualBox.exe) to Microsoft Teams TURN relay servers, where the RemoteUrl does not start with "teams.microsoft.com". This indicates potential protocol tunneling or an attempt to exfiltrate data or establish command and control through an unexpected channel, possibly leveraging Microsoft Teams infrastructure in an unauthorized manner. The use of DbgView64.exe or VirtualBox.exe as initiating processes for such connections is highly unusual and indicative of malicious activity.

Detects PHP or web server processes launching command-line database clients. INFINITERED collected database credentials and supported arbitrary SQL execution against compromised REDCap environments. Direct database-client execution by a web-serving process is uncommon and may indicate credential access, data collection, or backdoor command execution.
