Detects incoming HTTP requests to Microsoft Exchange servers that match patterns indicative of exploitation attempts for the ProxyLogon SSRF vulnerability (CVE-2021-26855). This includes detecting specific manipulation of the Autodiscover service and the injection of X-BEResource or X-AnonResource-Backend headers, which were commonly used during the initial access phase of this campaign.
GhostContainer
YARA
Detects GhostContainer .NET-based backdoor assembly components deployed on compromised Exchange servers, requiring multiple corroborating unique indicators (module/class names, C2 header, masquerading filenames) to reduce false positives on generic .NET assemblies

This rule detects potential web shell creation on a Microsoft Exchange server by monitoring for suspicious child processes spawned by the IIS web server process (w3wp.exe) that correlate with the creation or modification of web-accessible script files (.aspx, .ashx, .asp, .dll) within the Exchange virtual directories (ecp, owa, aspnet_client). This pattern is consistent with common post-exploitation activities used by attackers to gain persistent access via web shells.
This rule detects HTTP requests directed at Microsoft Exchange Outlook Web Access (OWA) that contain suspicious 'fakePath' and 'fakePageName' parameters in the URI. These parameters are indicators of the 'GhostContainer' malware attempting to establish a socket forwarding proxy through the web server to facilitate command and control communications.
Detects the GhostContainer .NET-based backdoor assembly deployed on compromised Microsoft Exchange servers, requiring multiple corroborating unique indicators (C2 header, proxy class name, virtual path parameters) alongside .NET/PE structure to reduce false positives

Detects potential tampering with Windows Event Logs or audit services by correlating manual service stops or log clearing events (EventIDs 1100, 1102, 104, 7036, 7040) with a sudden, significant decrease in total event volume on the same host. The rule accounts for planned maintenance and legitimate event log service restarts to reduce noise.
Detects inbound emails impersonating IT support or helpdesk staff that utilize urgent pretexts related to passkey, MFA, or SSO updates. These lures are commonly used in phishing campaigns to direct users toward malicious authentication flows, such as AiTM or device-code phishing setups.
This rule detects high-frequency account and email address enumeration attempts. It monitors syslog data for SMTP commands such as VRFY, EXPN, or RCPT TO, and analyzes Microsoft Entra ID (SigninLogs) for authentication failures specifically associated with error code 50034 (user not found). Both behaviors are indicative of an adversary attempting to validate user identities within an environment, often as a precursor to targeted phishing or brute-force attacks.
Detects automated mailbox access operations such as 'MailItemsAccessed' or 'Search-Mailbox' that are filtered by specific, high-risk financial or Business Email Compromise (BEC) keywords in the email subject line. This behavior is indicative of an automated 'inbox-monitor' style attack, where a compromised OAuth token is used to systematically scrape mailboxes for sensitive financial data.

This rule detects potential command and control (C2) communication related to the GhostContainer malware. It inspects HTTP POST requests directed at Microsoft Outlook Web Access (OWA) paths containing a suspicious 'x-owa-urlpostdata' header. The presence of this specific header, followed by a base64-encoded string of significant length, indicates an attempt to deliver C2 commands or exfiltrate data through OWA infrastructure.
This rule detects HTTP requests directed at Microsoft Exchange Outlook Web Access (OWA) that contain suspicious 'fakePath' and 'fakePageName' parameters in the URI. These parameters are indicators of the 'GhostContainer' malware attempting to establish a socket forwarding proxy through the web server to facilitate command and control communications.
