7,138 detections

This rule detects the launch of processes whose associated file hash (SHA256) has a low prevalence across the monitored environment. Specifically, it flags processes where the SHA256 hash has been observed on 1 to 3 distinct endpoints over the past 10 days. This can indicate the execution of rare or newly introduced executables, which could be malicious.

This rule detects when a known malicious file, identified by its SHA256 hash through VirusTotal relationships, attempts to contact a domain that VirusTotal also associates with that file. It correlates DNS query events with VirusTotal intelligence to identify suspicious network communications originating from potentially compromised systems.

This rule detects buffer overflow attempts in Unix system log files by looking for specific keywords. These keywords include phrases indicating an attempt to execute code on the stack, known exploit strings like '0bin0sh1', a long string of 'A's (which can be indicative of buffer filling), and messages related to 'stack smashing detected'. The rule aims to identify malicious activity where an attacker tries to overflow a buffer to gain control of program execution, potentially leading to privilege escalation.

This rule detects attempts to create or rename files with a space at the end of their filename, which can be used to obfuscate malicious files or commands. Specifically, it looks for command-line executions involving 'echo "*" > * && chmod +x *' or 'mv * "* "'. The first pattern suggests creating an executable file with a trailing space, and the second suggests renaming a file to include a trailing space.

Detects the potential abuse of the Linux Magic SysRq (System Request) key by adversaries with root or sufficient privileges to silently manipulate or destabilize a system. By writing to /proc/sysrq-trigger, they can crash the system, kill processes, or disrupt forensic analysis—all while bypassing standard logging. Though intended for recovery and debugging, SysRq can be misused as a stealthy post-exploitation tool. It is controlled via /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq or permanently through /etc/sysctl.conf.

Detects potentially suspicious child processes spawned by the SSH daemon (sshd) that execute commands using 'bash -c' or 'sh -c' as the root user. This behavior is indicative of potential exploitation of CVE-2024-3094, a backdoor in the XZ Utils library.
