Detects a suspicious sequence of events where a known web server process (e.g., IIS, Nginx, Apache) spawns a command shell process, followed shortly by the creation of a file with a web shell-like extension (.aspx, .jsp, .php) in the same environment. This pattern is indicative of an adversary exploiting a public-facing application to upload and potentially access a web shell.

Detects the abuse of native Windows binaries Regsvr32.exe and Rundll32.exe to execute code from remote sources. Regsvr32 is monitored for 'Squiblydoo'-style execution where scrobj.dll is used to execute remote scriptlets via a URL. Rundll32 is monitored for loading DLLs from remote UNC/WebDAV paths or HTTP URLs, which is a common pattern for proxying malicious code execution to bypass local security controls.

Detects the creation, modification, or renaming of common JSP web shell filenames (x.jsp, u.jsp, u2.jsp) within known web application directories (e.g., webapps, Peoplesoft, WebLogic). This pattern is indicative of an adversary attempting to establish a web shell for persistent access or command execution on a vulnerable web server.

Detects a suspicious sequence of events where a common internet-facing server process (e.g., w3wp.exe, nginx.exe) spawns a potentially malicious child process (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe), followed shortly thereafter by mass file modifications on the same host, which is characteristic of ransomware behavior following initial exploitation.

Detects web requests targeting Oracle PeopleSoft Integration Broker (PSIGW) endpoints that contain suspicious query parameters associated with exploitation attempts, such as path traversal sequences, command injection patterns, or Java-based class invocations. This rule is designed to identify exploitation attempts against PeopleSoft systems as observed in the mid-2026 ShinyHunters zero-day campaign.

Detects creation or modification of files under /etc/sudoers or /etc/sudoers.d/ by a
process outside sanctioned package- and configuration-management tooling. Writing a
passwordless sudo rule is the finishing move in CIFSwitch (CVE-2026-46243) and OVSwrap
(CVE-2026-64531) and a common root-persistence step generally. Enriched with writer
context (non-root, writable-path, shell one-liner, NOPASSWD) and a heuristic RiskScore /
TriagePriority, plus DeviceInfo host context (MachineGroup, OS, logged-on users).
Detection logic adapted from Elastic Security Labs - Linux LPE detection framework.

Detects execution and network activity related to the PamStealer / Wavel malware campaign, including the JXA dropper and associated C2 infrastructure. The rule monitors for known malicious file hashes (e.g., JXA dropper, pkgunpack utility) and network connections to identified lure, distribution, and C2 domains and URLs used by the campaign.

Detects web application server processes (such as IIS, Apache, Tomcat, Java, Nginx, or Node.js) spawning command-line interpreters or system utilities. This behavior is frequently associated with webshell execution or post-exploitation activities following the exploitation of a public-facing application, often seen in VPN or enterprise software compromises.

This rule detects potential post-exploitation activity following a SharePoint XamlServices.Parse() deserialization attack. It monitors the w3wp.exe (IIS worker process) for the loading of suspicious .NET deserialization-related assemblies (e.g., System.Xaml.dll) followed by the execution of a shell process (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, etc.) within a short window, which is indicative of fileless web shell activity.

Detects activity associated with the SharePoint ToolShell exploitation chain, specifically monitoring the w3wp.exe process for spawning suspicious child processes like cmd.exe or powershell.exe, and the creation of unexpected .aspx files within the SharePoint LAYOUTS directory.

Detects the creation or renaming of files to a .aspx extension within specific web application directories (member file-upload). The rule specifically filters for file operations initiated by the IIS worker process (w3wp.exe) and requires a non-zero file size, identifying potential web shell deployment attempts.

Detects the GitHub Actions runner executing the Bun runtime to run a hidden index.js payload, specifically associated with the compromised 'actions-cool/issues-helper' or 'actions-cool/maintain-one-comment' actions. The rule filters for process execution context tied to GitHub runner internals and validates that the Bun execution follows the pattern observed in these supply chain attacks.

This rule detects unauthorized process creation from the SharePoint worker process (w3wp.exe). It specifically monitors for the spawning of command-line shells or scripting engines, which is indicative of exploitation activity such as remote code execution (RCE) attempts against SharePoint services, including deserialization attacks.

Detects anomalous child process execution (e.g., cmd.exe, powershell.exe) by the Microsoft Exchange IIS worker process (w3wp.exe) or the creation of .aspx files in Exchange web directories. This behavior is highly indicative of post-exploitation activity, such as web shell deployment, frequently observed in attacks targeting vulnerabilities like ProxyShell and ProxyLogon.

This rule detects high-frequency API endpoint access originating from a single source IP address within a one-minute window, where the User-Agent does not match common browser strings. This behavior is indicative of automated scanning, scraping, or brute-force enumeration of API resources by non-browser clients.

Detects web requests targeting common LLM/AI inference API endpoints containing strings indicative of prompt injection attempts, such as attempts to bypass filters, exfiltrate system instructions, or force model behavior changes (e.g., DAN mode).

Detects web requests targeting sensitive Jenkins/CI-CD administrative and build-triggering endpoints, such as /script, /manage, and /job/*/build. These paths are high-value targets for reconnaissance and automated exploitation efforts. This rule identifies potentially malicious activity by monitoring for access to these specific paths, which should be correlated with frequency and source data to differentiate automated scanning from authorized administrative or system activities.
