9,759 detections

Detects the spawning of suspicious child processes (powershell, cmd, node, wscript, cscript) by dependency management utilities (npm, go, terraform). Attackers often leverage malicious packages or configurations during the build or install phase to execute arbitrary code. The rule also monitors for suspicious command-line execution patterns, such as detached 'go run' operations, which may indicate malicious activity.

Detects host-control and management tasks (e.g., shutdown, logoff, scheduled task modification) executed as child processes of the msedge_proxy.exe process. This behavior is indicative of the BotHelper malware implant managing infected endpoints.

101
Detects the execution of a .pif (Program Information File) process where the filename contains keywords suggestive of image files (e.g., 'image', 'photo', 'scan'). Adversaries often use this technique to trick users into executing malicious code by masquerading the file type.

006
Detects the execution of search-ms or search protocol URIs that contain a 'crumb' parameter combined with either a 'displayname' parameter or remote path indicators (such as WebDAV/UNC paths). This technique is commonly used by adversaries to redirect Windows Search to a remote, malicious location while masking the source by spoofing the displayed name or path to trick users.

006
This rule detects network activity associated with the DarkMe RAT, specifically targeting outbound TCP connections or DNS resolutions involving known C2 domains by the rundll32.exe process. This activity is indicative of the malware's post-injection C2 registration and beaconing.

006
Detects instances where a signed executable, typically a security or trusted system binary, loads an unsigned DLL from a user-writable, non-default directory (e.g., Temp, AppData, ProgramData). The rule specifically targets common system or vendor library names, indicating potential DLL search-order hijacking used to execute malicious code within a trusted process context.

Detects the use of legitimate data-transfer utilities (rclone, MEGA client, restic, WinSCP) configured to exfiltrate data to cloud storage providers. This behavior is identified as a precursor to double-extortion ransomware attacks, where attackers steal sensitive data before encrypting it.

102
Detects execution of potentially malicious processes (mshta, powershell, cmd, conhost) which are common vectors for ClickFix-style attacks, where a user is socially engineered into copying and pasting malicious commands into the Windows Run dialog or a command prompt.

102
Detects the invocation of Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) binaries (wsl.exe or wslconfig.exe) using command-line arguments that enable arbitrary command execution, such as -e, --exec, or shell interpreters (bash -c, sh -c), or web-based retrieval tools like curl/wget. This technique is often used to execute commands or download payloads within a Linux environment on Windows, potentially bypassing security controls focused on native Windows processes.

405
Detects a multi-stage evasion sequence where a process first queries the system for virtualization or sandbox artifacts (e.g., VM tools, system information), followed by an intentional sleep or delay to bypass sandbox analysis, and concluding with subsequent process activity. This pattern is characteristic of malware attempting to detect and evade automated analysis environments.

Detects sophisticated in-memory loader activity characterized by a sequence of events: process module loads involving AMSI patching (amsi.dll), fresh ntdll.dll remapping to bypass EDR hooks, and the enumeration of hypervisor-related drivers or services, often associated with advanced payload execution chains like ClickFix.

001
Detects modifications to Windows Registry auto-start keys (Run, RunOnce, Winlogon, or Services) by suspicious processes (e.g., script interpreters, shell, or office applications) or processes running from temporary directories, where the registry value points to paths commonly used by adversaries (AppData, Temp, or ProgramData).

102
This rule detects cross-process operations where common user applications or scripting hosts initiate activity towards sensitive system processes (e.g., lsass.exe, services.exe). This pattern is a frequent indicator of process injection techniques used to achieve code execution in the context of high-privilege or critical system services, often for the purpose of credential theft or persistence.

002
Detects potential 'ClickFix' activity where a browser or file explorer process initiates a shell (e.g., cmd, powershell, osascript) with command arguments indicative of remote script execution, obfuscated commands, or web-based payload downloading. This pattern matches known social engineering tactics that entice users to copy-paste malicious code into a system shell.

Detects the execution of 'tscon.exe', a Windows utility used to control Remote Desktop sessions. The rule specifically alerts when 'tscon.exe' is executed with parameters indicative of session hijacking (such as '/dest:') or when it is invoked by suspicious processes or under SYSTEM privileges, which are characteristic of RDP session hijacking techniques used for privilege escalation and lateral movement.

Detects the FileFix (ClickFix) social engineering technique, where an attacker tricks a user into pasting malicious command lines into the Windows File Explorer address bar. The rule correlates a process execution (PowerShell, Cmd, Mshta) originating from explorer.exe with recent registry writes to shell history artifacts (RunMRU, TypedPaths, or ShellBags) within a 120-second window, identifying the characteristic 'paste-and-execute' behavior.

002
Detects a coordinated attack sequence where a browser process is terminated, followed immediately by the execution of an unsigned Python interpreter from a suspicious location (temp/downloads folder), which is then followed by the installation of an unsigned browser extension. This pattern mimics ClickFix and browser-based RAT lure campaigns.

Detects the CLOSEDQUORUM implant communicating with multiple LLM providers (DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral, or Gemini) for quorum-based decision making, followed by the same process spawning or injecting into a legitimate Windows system process (e.g., svchost, explorer) to conduct post-exploitation activities.

Detects unauthorized, unsigned processes accessing sensitive browser files (Cookies, Login Data, Local State) across common browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Firefox) followed by an outbound network connection. This behavior is indicative of credential-harvesting infostealer malware.
