This rule detects potential process injection attempts targeting the Windows Update Service (wusvc.exe). It monitors for suspicious API calls, including VirtualAlloc, VirtualProtect, WriteProcessMemory, and QueueUserAPC, or memory page protections set to PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE within the context of the wusvc.exe process. The detection requires multiple distinct indicators of injection to be present, reducing the likelihood of flagging benign administrative activities.
Detects instances where a process launch exhibits PPID spoofing (where the reported parent PID does not match the actual creator PID) followed by that spoofed process attempting to access high-privileged system processes such as lsass.exe, services.exe, or winlogon.exe within a two-minute window. This behavior is indicative of privilege escalation attempts.
Detects the use of WinRAR (rar.exe or WinRAR.exe) to archive files, specifically flagging operations that involve recursion, password protection (-hp), or targeting network shares. This behavior is commonly used by adversaries for data staging prior to exfiltration.
Detects suspicious API call sequences indicative of process injection into the 'svchost.exe' system process. The rule monitors for a combination of memory manipulation and thread execution APIs, such as 'ZwWriteVirtualMemory', 'NtDuplicateObject', 'VirtualAllocEx', and 'CreateRemoteThread', when initiated by processes other than legitimate Windows system processes. This is a common indicator of unauthorized code execution or lateral movement.
Detects the presence of known malicious Chrome extension IDs, suspicious configuration files (e.g., perplexity-rules.json, bing-rules.json), or extensions utilizing invasive declarativeNetRequest permissions, which are often used for browser-based exfiltration or credential interception.
Detects behavioral indicators associated with VILE ransomware, specifically focused on defense evasion through Windows event log clearing, termination of security-related processes, and the presence of specific ransomware-related configuration or identity files in common staging directories.
This rule detects network connections from devices to a predefined list of known malicious domains. It identifies attempts by internal systems to communicate with command and control servers, phishing sites, or other infrastructure associated with threat actors.
Detects host profiling activities performed by Kimsuky malware loaders, specifically the use of WMI queries for process enumeration or the execution of 'tasklist' commands. The rule identifies markers often found in the output of these enumeration scripts to identify potential pre-payload reconnaissance.
This rule detects the execution of script files (.vbs, .ps1, .hta, .lnk, .exe) from potential removable media drives (drive letters D-Z) by common Windows interpreters (wscript.exe, cscript.exe, powershell.exe). It monitors for these processes being launched either as standalone processes or as children of other scripts, explorer.exe, or interpreters, while explicitly excluding paths typically associated with legitimate Windows system and program directories.
Detects the presence of files known to be associated with malicious activity by matching their SHA256 hashes against a list of known bad indicators.
Detects Node.js processes accessing paths associated with cryptocurrency wallets and browser extension storage (MetaMask, Phantom, Exodus, Electrum). This behavior is characteristic of infostealer malware attempting to exfiltrate seed phrases, keys, or wallet configuration data.
Detects cross-process memory operations and remote thread creation associated with the SPECTRALVIPER sideloading chain. It specifically flags injections originating from IntelAudioService.exe into OneDrive or svchost processes, the loading of the DtlCrashCatch.dll module, and general suspicious remote thread or memory write operations against these targets, excluding known system processes and security software.
Detects unauthorized cross-process memory operations targeting high-value Windows processes (e.g., lsass.exe, svchost.exe) by unsigned or untrusted processes. It also detects indicators of reflective DLL injection within process command lines.
Detects evidence of credential dumping activities, including the execution of known Mimikatz-related binaries or command lines, unauthorized memory dumping of the LSASS process using tools like procdump or rundll32 with comsvcs.dll, and the presence of known credential dumping artifacts on disk. It also monitors cross-process access to lsass.exe by potentially unauthorized or unsigned processes.
This rule monitors for processes that repeatedly call GetTickCount64 while also invoking sleep functions, a common technique used by malware to detect virtualized environments or sandboxes by measuring time intervals and stalling execution to bypass short-duration automated analysis. The rule prioritizes alerts originating from non-standard system paths or processes.
This rule detects instances where msiexec.exe spawns cmd.exe to execute a batch file located within the user's AppData\Roaming directory. This pattern is indicative of potential malicious activity where msiexec is abused as a proxy for command execution, often used by malware to launch secondary stages from user-writable directories.
This rule detects potential DLL side-loading and file staging activity by monitoring for the execution of specific suspicious binaries or the loading of known malicious DLLs from non-standard or staging directories like C:\Users\Public\Documents\ or C:\ProgramData\IDM\logs\. The rule flags activity associated with loaders like SHARDLOADER, ZOHOMURK, and MINIRECON.
Detects potential ransomware activity characterized by a high volume of file modifications (create, write, rename) involving common document/data extensions, combined with the execution of commands designed to inhibit system recovery (shadow copy deletion, BCD modifications) or perform network share enumeration within the same timeframe and on the same host.
Detects Node.js being used to establish reverse shell connections
Detects the execution of notepad.exe where the command line arguments reference a file path located in 'C:\temp\' and include a filename typical of ransomware notes, such as 'HowToRestoreFiles.txt'. This behavior is characteristic of ransomware displaying instructions to the victim after file encryption.
Detects unauthorized attempts to terminate, stop, or access Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) or Antivirus agent processes. This is identified by monitoring command-line utilities like taskkill, net, and sc targeting known security service names, as well as detecting suspicious cross-process access (e.g., OpenProcess) by unauthorized processes targeting security agent PIDs.
