Detects the use of curl.exe where the User-Agent string contains a URL pointing to temp.sh. This specific TTP was observed in the Notepad++ supply chain attack (Chrysalis infection chain) to exfiltrate system information and signal the uploaded file's location to the C2 server.

This rule detects the execution of 'CheckNetIsolation.exe' with the command-line arguments 'LoopbackExempt' and 'aad'. This specific command is used to exempt Universal Windows Platform (UWP) or Store apps from network loopback restrictions, often in the context of Azure Active Directory (AAD) authentication. While this can be a legitimate operation for development or specific application configurations, it can also be abused by malicious applications to bypass network isolation.

Correlates PowerShell extraction of specific files (steam_monitor, crashhandler, crashlog) with subsequent DLL side-loading where 'crashhandler.dll' is loaded by 'steam_monitor.exe' from a non-standard program or Steam directory, indicating a potential malware infection chain.

This rule detects attempts to hijack file associations by monitoring command-line executions of 'cmd.exe' or 'reg.exe' that involve deleting 'UserChoice' registry keys or adding 'ApplicationAssociationToasts'. This behavior is indicative of an adversary attempting to modify default program associations to achieve persistence or execute malicious code.

Detects the execution of PowerShell with a command line containing a specific sequence of strings associated with extracting and executing malware from a ZIP file, as observed in the Steam_Monitor campaign. This typically involves using PowerShell commands like 'Get-ChildItem', '::OpenRead', and 'TaR' in conjunction with a '.zip' file.

was reading this article today on cybersecuritynews (🔗 ⬇️ ) about attackers abusing Windows File Explorer + WebDAV to deliver malware, and it made me think about how to monitor this threat.
The attack makes File Explorer connect to an external location that looks like a normal folder. From the user side nothing feels strange… but in reality explorer.exe is establishing an internet connection to attacker infrastructure.
As I usually say, it’s often better to focus on IOAs (how the activity happens) rather than only URLs or domains, because those are trivial for attackers to change. The behaviour is what tends to stay consistent.
The following KQL Query filter identify external connections initiated by Explorer + option to exclude False Positives based on URLs + option to specify connections to specific countries

Detects the command-line pattern of reassembling a ZIP or CAB file from fragmented parts using the 'copy' command. This technique was observed in a campaign where adversaries manually reconstructed payloads on disk to evade detection by splitting them into multiple parts and then reassembling them.

Detects the FileZilla executable (filezilla.exe) spawning the C# compiler (csc.exe). This behavior is highly anomalous for a standard FTP client and is a technique used by a trojanized FileZilla variant to perform runtime .NET compilation for its payload.

This rule detects network connections to domains that appear to be dynamically generated IPv6 reverse DNS entries. These types of domains (e.g., 'xxxxxxxxxx.ip6.arpa') are often used in command and control (C2) communications or for exfiltration by malware to evade traditional domain-based detection. The regex specifically looks for a 10-character alphanumeric string followed by '.ip6.arpa'.
