Detects suspicious command-line execution patterns originating from explorer.exe, characteristic of 'ClickFix' social engineering attacks where users are tricked into copying and pasting malicious commands into a terminal or Run dialog. The rule monitors for the usage of system binaries (mshta, powershell, rundll32, etc.) combined with network-fetching arguments or suspicious execution flags (hidden windows, encoded commands).
Detects the execution of rclone, a command-line tool for synchronizing files to and from cloud storage services. The rule identifies suspicious command-line usage patterns, specifically looking for common transfer operations (copy, sync, copyto), usage of configuration files, transfer tuning flags, or direct remote cloud storage identifiers, which are characteristic of unauthorized data exfiltration.
Detects attempts to clear Windows Event Logs using either the native 'wevtutil.exe' utility or PowerShell cmdlets 'Clear-EventLog' and 'Remove-EventLog'. Adversaries often perform this action to remove evidence of their presence or malicious activities from a compromised system.
Detects the execution of rclone.exe or renamed binaries with command-line flags indicative of data exfiltration to cloud storage providers such as S3, Mega, OneDrive, or Google Drive. This behavior is frequently associated with ransomware actors, including Akira, Qilin, and Storm-2570, who use Rclone to perform mass exfiltration of sensitive file share data prior to encryption (double extortion).
Detects unauthorized modification or creation of registry keys under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\ to maintain persistence for remote access/RMM tools during Safe Mode with Networking. This technique is used by Akira ransomware affiliates to evade EDR and security software.
Detects potential callback phishing (Telephone-Oriented Attack Delivery) by correlating phishing-themed emails containing phone numbers with no hyperlinks to the subsequent execution or installation of common remote monitoring and management (RMM) software on the same host within a six-hour window. The rule further refines this by ensuring the RMM tool was not previously installed on the user's system.
Detects the use of PowerShell or Windows Script Host to access files within common web browser cache directories combined with indicators of Base64 decoding and pixel data manipulation. This behavior is indicative of extracting malicious payloads hidden via steganography within browser-cached image files, a technique often used in phishing campaigns to evade detection.
This rule detects the 'ClickFix' social engineering technique where a user is manipulated into manually invoking the Windows Run dialog (Win+R) and pasting a malicious command. The rule monitors for instances where explorer.exe spawns command interpreters like cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or mshta.exe with suspicious command-line patterns indicative of encoded payloads, script execution, or remote downloads.
Detects the execution of conhost.exe with the --headless flag, which is commonly observed in Kimsuky LNK-based malware campaigns to execute encoded cmd.exe payloads. This pattern involves the use of certutil or echo commands to deobfuscate and execute embedded scripts, often leveraging hidden windows or process hollowing techniques for persistence and evasion.
Detects invisible/non-printing Unicode codepoints (zero-width chars, bidi overrides, variation selectors, Unicode tag characters, and Private Use Area icon-font codepoints) embedded in process command lines - covering both classic command/script obfuscation and the emerging use of hidden codepoints to smuggle AI prompt-injection payloads into content later processed by AI copilots/agents. Tightened to require 2+ high-confidence codepoint hits (or 1 from a known scripting host/LOLBin), and gates Private-Use-Area-only matches (a common legitimate icon-font false-positive source) to scripting hosts with 5+ hits, maps to T1027.018.
Detects the execution of known NTLM Certificate Enrollment Service (CES) relay tools alongside subsequent outbound network connections to Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS) CES enrollment endpoints. This behavioral pattern indicates an adversary attempting to relay NTLM authentication to an AD CS server to request a certificate, typically for privilege escalation or persistence.
Detects Node.js or NPM process executions that reference Twilio-specific credential variables (ACCOUNT_SID, AUTH_TOKEN) within the command line, likely indicating an attempt to harvest these secrets from a developer environment.
Detects the use of native Windows utilities such as findstr, cmd, powershell, or file copy utilities with recursive flags to search for files containing keywords related to internal infrastructure documentation, such as network diagrams, server inventories, firewall configs, or AD topologies. This activity is indicative of information gathering and reconnaissance by an adversary.
Detects the execution of PowerShell or PowerShell Core (pwsh) triggered by common Windows shell applications (explorer, mshta, wscript, cscript) where the command line contains indicators associated with the downloading of VelvetCake stager files, including specific GitHub raw content URLs or AppData paths referencing known stager filenames.
Detects instances where a command-line utility or scripting interpreter references a 'SKILL.md' configuration file, typically associated with agent-skill payloads, followed shortly by network-based file download activity. This behavior is indicative of a secondary payload retrieval triggered by an adversary-controlled or poisoned configuration file.
Detects instances where the Node.js runtime process (node.exe) spawns a command shell (cmd.exe) or PowerShell (powershell.exe). This pattern is frequently used by malicious Node.js-based applications, RATs, or web shells to execute arbitrary commands on a compromised host.
Detects instances where rundll32.exe is used to invoke shell32.dll with the SHCreateLocal function, or where a web browser process (msedge.exe, chrome.exe, or firefox.exe) is spawned by rundll32.exe to open an HTML file. This pattern is often indicative of malicious activity such as HTML smuggling or local file execution attacks where rundll32 is used as a proxy to open files via the browser.
Detects the modification of service permissions for the 'AgtaBackupAgentSvc' service using the 'sdset' command via 'sc.exe', 'cmd.exe', or 'powershell.exe'. Adversaries use this technique to hide services or modify access to them by applying a specific Service Descriptor Definition Language (SDDL) string to bypass security enumeration or maintain persistence.
Detects the execution of PowerShell with hidden window styles and encoded commands, initiated with High Integrity (Admin) privileges. This pattern is often indicative of bypasses for User Account Control (UAC) or malicious script execution where an adversary attempts to run elevated code while minimizing user visibility.
Detects the Kothamine post-installation technique where npm/node spawns PowerShell to reflectively load a .NET assembly stager into memory. This behavior is followed by the PowerShell process spawning anomalous instances of RuntimeBroker.exe or svchost.exe. These spawned processes exhibit suspicious characteristics, such as executing from non-standard file paths, having missing command-line arguments (like the required '-k' for svchost), or having an illegitimate parent process (powershell.exe) instead of standard system parents like services.exe or wininit.exe.
Detects the execution of VBScript files that use a double extension (.pdf.vbs) via Windows Script Host (wscript.exe or cscript.exe). This technique is commonly used to masquerade malicious scripts as benign PDF documents to deceive users into executing them.
