The analytic detects when a Windows RDP client attempts to execute an RDP file from a temporary directory, downloads directory, or Outlook directories. This detection is significant as it can indicate an attempt for an adversary to deliver a .rdp file, which may be leveraged by attackers to control or exfiltrate data. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead to unauthorized access, data theft, or further lateral movement within the network.
This analytic leverages alerts from Splunk AppDynamics SecureApp to identify and monitor exploit attempts targeting business applications. It specifically looks for vulnerabilities in web applications, including injection attacks (SQL, API abuse), deserialization vulnerabilities, remote code execution attempts, LOG4J, and zero-day attacks. These attacks typically aim to gain unauthorized access, exfiltrate sensitive data, or disrupt application functionality. Splunk AppDynamics SecureApp provides real-time detection by analyzing application-layer events and correlating attack behavior with known vulnerability signatures, categorizing attack severity, providing visibility into attacker tactics, and generating risk-based scoring and contextual alerts.
The analytic identifies the execution of the native mimikatz.exe binary on Windows systems, including instances where the binary is renamed. It leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names and original file names. This activity is significant because Mimikatz is a widely used tool for extracting authentication credentials, posing a severe security risk. If confirmed malicious, this activity could allow attackers to obtain sensitive credentials, escalate privileges, and move laterally within the network, leading to potential data breaches and system compromise.
This rule detects the creation or modification of ASPX/ASP files within specific SharePoint web server directories on devices identified as vulnerable to CVE-2025-49706 or CVE-2025-53770. It leverages vulnerability management data to narrow down the scope to only vulnerable SharePoint servers, then monitors file events in common SharePoint LAYOUTS paths for web shell indicators. The rule also uses file profiling to identify potentially novel or malicious ASPX/ASP files that lack Defender visibility.
CVE-2025-53770 is a critical zero-day vulnerability in on-premise Microsoft SharePoint Server, actively exploited in the wild, allowing unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) with a CVSS score of 9.8. This means attackers can execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable server without needing login credentials.
The following analytic identifies the addition and quick deletion of a Service Principal Name (SPN) to a domain account within 5 minutes. This detection leverages EventCode 5136 from the Windows Security Event Log, focusing on changes to the servicePrincipalName attribute. This activity is significant as it may indicate an attempt to perform Kerberoasting, a technique used to crack the cleartext password of a domain account offline. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information or escalate privileges within the domain environment.
Detects suspicious file writes to SharePoint layouts directory which could indicate webshell activity or post-exploitation. This behavior has been observed in the exploitation of SharePoint vulnerabilities such as CVE-2025-49704, CVE-2025-49706 or CVE-2025-53770.
Detects the creation of the "spinstall0.aspx" web shell in a SharePoint server directory, which is a known post-exploitation indicator for the SharePoint vulnerability CVE-2025-53770.
This rule detects the creation of a new process (cmd.exe) that is spawned by a w3wp.exe process, which itself is a child of svchost.exe, and where the command line of the w3wp.exe process contains the string "SharePoint". This chain of events could indicate suspicious activity within a SharePoint environment, potentially an attacker executing commands via a compromised IIS worker process.
This rule detects the execution of common command and scripting interpreters (cmd.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe, pwsh.exe, powershell_ise.exe, wmic.exe, wscript.exe) when their parent process is either w3wp.exe or svchost.exe, and the command arguments contain keywords related to SharePoint. This behavior can indicate suspicious activity within a SharePoint environment, potentially related to web shell execution, privilege escalation, or data exfiltration.
This rule detects HTTP POST requests to specific SharePoint application paths, including ToolPane.aspx and SignOut.aspx. These paths have historically been associated with SharePoint vulnerabilities, particularly unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE) exploits. The rule aims to identify attempts to interact with these sensitive endpoints, which could indicate an attacker attempting to exploit known vulnerabilities or perform unauthorized actions.
Active exploitation of CVE-2025-53770 involves the creation of this file, indicating successful post-exploitation.
This rule detects the creation of a suspicious file named 'spinstall0.aspx' or similar in a specific SharePoint template directory, which is indicative of a potential compromise related to CVE-2025-49704, CVE-2025-49706, or CVE-2025-53770. Additionally, it identifies network connections to known malicious IP addresses associated with these vulnerabilities.
This rule detects exploitation attempts against SharePoint servers, specifically targeting CVE-2025-53770 (ToolShell). It has two parts: one for suspicious process creation (cmd.exe spawning powershell.exe from w3wp.exe) and another for malicious web request patterns in IIS logs (POST requests to /_layouts/15/ToolPane.aspx with specific query parameters and referrer).
This rule detects the creation of specific files named 'spinstall0' within the SharePoint Web Server Extensions template layouts directory. This activity could indicate an attempt to install or modify SharePoint components, potentially for malicious purposes or unauthorized changes.
The following analytic detects potential post-exploitation activity related to the Microsoft SharePoint CVE-2025-53770 vulnerability. After successful exploitation via the ToolPane.aspx endpoint, attackers typically deploy a webshell named "spinstall0.aspx" in the SharePoint layouts directory. This detection identifies GET requests to this webshell, which indicates active use of the backdoor for command execution, data exfiltration, or credential/key extraction. Attackers commonly use these webshells to extract encryption keys, authentication tokens, and other sensitive information from the compromised SharePoint server.
Detects access to vulnerable SharePoint components potentially being exploited in CVE-2025-53770 through IIS web server logs. CVE-2025-53770 is a zero-day vulnerability in SharePoint that allows remote code execution.
Detects potential exploitation attempts of the SharePoint vulnerability CVE-2025-53770 by looking for POST requests to ToolPane.aspx with a specific referrer.
Detects the creation of "spinstall0.aspx", a file dropped after the successful exploitation of the SharePoint vulnerability CVE-2025-53770. This file is a known webshell.
This detection identifies the creation or modification of the "spinstall0.aspx" webshell file in Microsoft SharePoint directories. This file is a known indicator of compromise associated with the exploitation of CVE-2025-53770 (ToolShell vulnerability). Attackers exploit the vulnerability to drop webshells that provide persistent access to compromised SharePoint servers, allowing them to execute arbitrary commands, access sensitive data, and move laterally within the network.
Detects potential exploitation of CVE-2025-53770, a zero-day vulnerability in SharePoint that allows remote code execution. The rule identifies indicators such as suspicious command lines discovered in post-exploitation activities, specifically looking for `w3wp.exe` as a parent process executing encoded commands or referencing `spinstall0.aspx` within SharePoint layout paths.
