Detects potential ASP.NET ViewState deserialization attacks, which can occur when an attacker exploits a publicly known machine key. This is often indicated by a POST request to an ASP.NET page containing a large __VIEWSTATE parameter, followed by a 500 Internal Server Error.
Detects URLs that use the `https://user@host` syntax where the 'user' part is crafted to look like a legitimate domain (e.g., `https://example.com@malicious-site.net`). This is a technique used by the Jingle Thief group (also tracked as Atlas Lion and STORM-0539) to craft convincing phishing links.
Detects multiple TTPs associated with the exploitation of SharePoint ToolShell vulnerabilities (e.g., CVE-2025-53770) by the threat actor Storm-2603. This includes the initial exploit attempt, webshell creation, defense evasion using a vulnerable driver, and C2 communication.
Detects the creation of files commonly associated with Godzilla-forked webshells, such as 'error.aspx', on a web server. Threat actors deploy these webshells for persistent access after exploiting vulnerabilities in web applications like IIS.
Detects potential exploitation of the ToolShell remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2025-53770) in on-premises Microsoft SharePoint servers. Attackers have been observed sending POST requests to the 'ToolPane.aspx' endpoint and subsequently dropping webshells with specific names in the SharePoint LAYOUTS directory.
Detects potential exploitation of the critical SharePoint “ToolShell” zero‑day vulnerability (CVE‑2025‑53770), in which attackers leverage unsafe deserialization of untrusted data in SharePoint’s ToolPane.aspx endpoint to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution via IIS worker process behavior.
Detects the deployment or activity of the TOLLBOOTH IIS module. This is achieved by identifying the creation of its specific DLLs by the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe), or by detecting outbound C2 communication from the IIS worker process to known TOLLBOOTH infrastructure.
Detects malicious ASP.NET webshell activity associated with the CL0P Ransomware Gang exploiting CVE-2023-34362. The rule looks for specific HTTP headers used by the webshell, indicators of Azure Blob Storage interaction, or SQL injection attempts.
The following analytic detects the use of default or publicly known named pipes associated with Cobalt Strike. It leverages Sysmon EventID 17 and 18 to identify specific named pipes commonly used by Cobalt Strike's Artifact Kit and Malleable C2 Profiles. This activity is significant because Cobalt Strike is a popular tool for adversaries to conduct post-exploitation tasks, and identifying its named pipes can reveal potential malicious activity. If confirmed malicious, this could indicate an active Cobalt Strike beacon, leading to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or further lateral movement within the network.
Detects unexpected command shell execution (cmd.exe) from w3wp.exe when tied to CentreStack's portal.config, indicating potential exploitation (e.g., CVE-2025-30406). This behavior is highly indicative of a web shell or similar remote code execution vulnerability being exploited on the CentreStack portal.
The analytic detects the use of `bitsadmin.exe` with the `transfer` or `addfile` parameters to download a remote object. This activity is significant because `bitsadmin.exe` can be exploited to download and execute malicious files without immediate detection. If confirmed malicious, an attacker could use this technique to download and execute payloads, potentially leading to code execution, privilege escalation, or persistent access within the environment. The rule leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process and command-line telemetry. Review parallel and child processes, especially `svchost.exe`, for associated artifacts.
This rule detects attempts to exploit CVE-2023-23752 in Joomla. The exploit involves unauthenticated access to sensitive configuration information or user data via specific API endpoints. The rule looks for HTTP GET requests to '/api/index.php/v1/users?public=true' or '/api/index.php/v1/config/application?public=true' followed by a 200 HTTP status code, indicating a successful information disclosure.
Detects attempts to exploit a Rejetto HTTP File Server (HFS) via CVE-2014-6287. The rule looks for specific patterns in the URI query that indicate an attempt to inject commands or save files, which are characteristic of this vulnerability. The presence of '?search=%00{.' combined with keywords like 'powershell', 'cmd.exe', 'cscript', 'wscript', 'python', or paths like 'C:\Users\Public\' suggests an exploitation attempt.
This analytic detects suspicious data transfer activities involving the use of the `split` syscall with the `-b` option, which specifies the size of each output file. This technique can be used by attackers to evade detection by breaking large files into smaller parts, bypassing size-based security controls, and facilitating covert exfiltration of sensitive data. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized use of the `split` syscall with a specified block size, this analytic helps identify potential data exfiltration attempts.
This analytic identifies the bulk creation of ransomware notes (e.g., .txt, .html, .hta files) on an infected machine. It leverages Sysmon EventCode 11 to detect multiple instances of these file types being created within a short time frame (10 seconds). A detection is triggered if 15 or more unique readme paths are observed. This activity is a strong indicator of an active ransomware attack, where the attacker is notifying the victim of the encryption. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to widespread data encryption, rendering critical files inaccessible and potentially causing significant operational disruption.
The following analytic detects suspicious attempts to find credentials stored in password stores, indicating a potential attacker's effort to access sensitive login information. Password stores are critical repositories that contain valuable credentials, and unauthorized access to them can lead to significant security breaches. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized activities related to password store access, this analytic helps identify potential credential theft attempts, allowing security teams to respond promptly and prevent unauthorized access to critical systems and data.
The following analytic identifies instances of Regsvcs.exe establishing a network connection to a public IP address, excluding private IP ranges. This detection leverages Sysmon EventID 3 logs to monitor network connections initiated by Regsvcs.exe. This activity is significant as Regsvcs.exe, a legitimate Microsoft-signed binary, can be exploited to bypass application control mechanisms and establish remote Command and Control (C2) channels. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could allow an attacker to escalate privileges, persist in the environment, and exfiltrate sensitive data. Immediate investigation and remediation are recommended.
The analytic detects the use of `GetProcAddress` within PowerShell script blocks, captured via PowerShell Script Block Logging (EventCode=4104). The presence of `GetProcAddress` in PowerShell is often indicative of malicious activity, such as process injection or other code execution techniques, as it allows for dynamic resolution of API functions. This behavior is unusual for legitimate PowerShell scripts and suggests an attacker is attempting to execute arbitrary code, potentially leading to system compromise. Analysts should investigate the full script block and any associated processes.
The following analytic identifies potential exploitation of the WordPress Bricks Builder plugin RCE vulnerability. It detects HTTP POST requests to the URL path "/wp-json/bricks/v1/render_element" with a status code of 200, leveraging the Web datamodel. This activity is significant as it indicates an attempt to exploit CVE-2024-25600, a known vulnerability that allows remote code execution. If confirmed malicious, an attacker could execute arbitrary commands on the target server, leading to potential full system compromise and unauthorized access to sensitive data.
Detects potential command injection attempts in the body of HTTP POST requests. Attackers, such as those operating the RondoDoX botnet, exploit unsanitized input fields in web interfaces of SOHO routers, IoT devices, and other applications to execute arbitrary commands. This rule looks for common command-line tools and shell characters within the POST body, particularly in requests targeting parameters known to be vulnerable.
This analytic detects instances where web or application server processes (such as Java, Tomcat, Apache, Nginx, Node, Caddy, IIS, PHP) spawn a Linux or Windows shell. This activity is highly indicative of successful exploitation, potentially related to vulnerabilities like Log4Shell (CVE-2021-44228) or Spring4Shell (CVE-2022-22965), leading to unauthorized command execution, privilege escalation, or persistent access. The detection leverages Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) telemetry, focusing on parent-child process relationships and process names.
