Detects the use of systemctl mask to disable system power management targets such as suspend, hibernate, or hybrid sleep.
Adversaries may mask these targets to prevent a system from entering sleep or shutdown states, ensuring their malicious processes remain active and uninterrupted.
This behavior can be associated with persistence or defense evasion, as it impairs normal system power operations to maintain long-term access or avoid termination of malicious activity.

Detects the execution of 'sudo' command with '--chroot' option, which is used to change the root directory for command execution.
Attackers may use this technique to evade detection and execute commands in a modified environment.
This can be part of a privilege escalation strategy, as it allows the execution of commands with elevated privileges in a controlled environment as seen in CVE-2025-32463.
While investigating, look out for unusual or unexpected use of 'sudo --chroot' in conjunction with other commands or scripts such as execution from temporary directories or unusual user accounts.

This query identifies Linux devices with vulnerable versions of the Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) installed, which are susceptible to remote denial-of-service and authentication bypass attacks as described in CVE-2025-58364 and CVE-2025-58060. The rule filters for CUPS software packages on Linux systems and compares the installed version against a known vulnerable version cutoff. This cutoff is a placeholder and must be updated with specific version information from official vendor advisories.
