Detects a loader module and a corresponding RIFF/WAVE file that utilizes steganography to conceal a secondary malicious payload. The loader extracts the payload from the WAV file using specific offsets and XOR decoding, then executes it in memory. This pattern is characteristic of a DLL sideloading chain involving WMPCL.dll and WPFLocalizeExtension.dll.

Detects malicious DLLs identified by specific exports and imports (e.g., rdCore.dll, I++u.dll) that are intended to be sideloaded by signed binaries such as Canon's COTFileReadApp.exe or Stardock software. The detection relies on identifying the combination of sideloaded component names and the presence of suspicious import structures characteristic of these specific staging loaders.

Detects the NeedyMantis second-stage loader, typically encountered as a malicious script (e.g., encryptbase64.ps1). The detection identifies raw shellcode residing in files that exhibit specific traits: PEB-walking for API resolution using a ROR(11) hashing algorithm, the inclusion of the 'RtlDecompressBuffer' API for payload expansion, and the absence of standard PowerShell script headers at the start of the file.

Detects NeedyMantis malware loader components that utilize the RtlDecompressBuffer API for custom XOR-compressed archive extraction. The rule specifically looks for the presence of known staged file names (dnsapi.dll, ws2_32.dll, msvcrt140.dll, or encryptbase64.ps1) alongside decoy file references typically used by the threat actor.

Detects the use of PowerShell with a hidden window ('-w hidden') to execute the 'Add-MpPreference' cmdlet to configure Windows Defender exclusions. This combination is often indicative of malicious activity, such as attempting to bypass security controls stealthily following a UAC bypass or initial access.

Detects evidence of potential adversarial interference with Windows Defender updates and MRT.exe (Malicious Software Removal Tool). The rule correlates high volumes of temporary file creation in user directories with unauthorized access to MRT.exe by third-party processes and repeated Windows Defender update failures, indicating a potential attempt to disrupt endpoint security operations.

Detects attempts to disable Windows Defender features via PowerShell, terminate critical security services using administrative tools like sc.exe or net.exe, or inject/patch AMSI (Antimalware Scan Interface) within a process context to evade detection.

This rule detects attempts to impair or disable security defenses on Windows systems. It specifically monitors for three categories of malicious behavior: PowerShell-based AMSI (Antimalware Scan Interface) bypass techniques, commands to stop security-related services (e.g., Windows Defender, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike Falcon), and the use of 'reg' or 'PowerShell' to modify registry keys associated with disabling antivirus or real-time monitoring.

Detects a fake ClaudeDesktop.exe installer / tampered libcef.dll sideload chain deploying the SectopRAT .NET RAT, requiring multiple corroborating indicators and a PE anomaly consistent with DLL sideloading rather than a single generic string

Detects the use of PowerShell to modify Windows Defender exclusions by adding a path or process located in user-controlled directories (Downloads, Temp, AppData). This behavior is characteristic of adversaries attempting to suppress security alerts for malicious binaries masquerading as legitimate software.

This rule detects the presence of Vidar Stealer version 2.0+ by identifying the specific ARX-based (Addition-Rotation-XOR) stream cipher implementation. The detection logic searches for stable cryptographic constants (FNV-1a prime and golden-ratio constants), unique per-build ARX transformation constants, and specific post-decryption artifacts in the file's binary content.

This rule detects a suspicious sequence of events where a process related to Electron (a framework often used for cross-platform desktop applications) executes a hidden, obfuscated PowerShell command, followed by a subsequent PowerShell command to modify Microsoft Defender settings by adding an exclusion path for the 'AppData' directory within 10 minutes of the first process.
