7,270 detections

The analytic detects instances where Java or Tomcat processes spawn a Linux shell. This activity may indicate exploitation attempts, such as those related to CVE-2021-44228 (Log4Shell). This detection leverages Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) telemetry, focusing on process names and parent-child process relationships. This activity is significant as it can signify a compromised Java application, potentially leading to unauthorized shell access. If confirmed malicious, attackers could execute arbitrary commands, escalate privileges, or maintain persistent access, posing a severe threat to the environment.

Detects the execution of Python web servers via command line interface (CLI).
After gaining access to target systems, adversaries may use Python's built-in HTTP server modules to quickly establish a web server without requiring additional software.
This technique is commonly used in post-exploitation scenarios as it provides a simple method for transferring files between the compromised host and attacker-controlled systems.

Detects critical service crashes, fatal errors, and abnormal process terminations in Ollama that may indicate exploitation attempts, resource exhaustion attacks, malicious input triggering unhandled exceptions, or deliberate denial of service attacks designed to disrupt AI model availability and degrade system stability. The rule aggregates multiple termination events within a 5-minute window to identify sustained instability or attack patterns.

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.

Detects abnormal memory allocation patterns and excessive runner operations in Ollama that may indicate resource exhaustion attacks, memory abuse through malicious model loading, or attempts to degrade system performance by overwhelming GPU/CPU resources. Adversaries may deliberately load multiple large models, trigger repeated model initialization cycles, or exploit memory allocation mechanisms to exhaust available system resources, causing denial of service conditions or degrading performance for legitimate users.

The analytic detects the creation or enabling of services on Linux platforms using the `systemctl` or `service` tools. It leverages Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) logs, focusing on process names, parent processes, and command-line executions. This activity is significant as adversaries may create or modify services to maintain persistence or execute malicious payloads. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to persistent access, data theft, ransomware deployment, or other damaging outcomes. Monitoring and investigating such activities are crucial for maintaining the security and integrity of the environment.

This rule detects attempts to browse or access a predefined list of potentially malicious software packages. It monitors proxy logs for occurrences of these package names within the 'file.name' field. Further investigation of network traffic volume (bytes in/out) is recommended to ascertain if a download of the malicious package has taken place.

The following analytic identifies instances where users may have mistakenly entered their passwords in the username field during authentication attempts. It detects this by analyzing failed authentication events with usernames longer than 7 characters and high Shannon entropy, followed by a successful authentication from the same source to the same destination. This activity is significant as it can indicate potential security risks, such as password exposure. If confirmed malicious, attackers could exploit this to gain unauthorized access, leading to potential data breaches or further compromise of the system.

Detects potential exploitation of CVE-2025-41244, a local privilege escalation vulnerability in VMware Tools and Aria Operations.
An attacker can stage a malicious binary in a world-writable directory (e.g., /tmp) which is then executed with root privileges by the VMware service discovery mechanism when it attempts to determine the binary's version.
