The analytic identifies the use of `sqlite3` querying the MacOS preferences to determine the original URL from which a package was downloaded. This detection leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on process names and command-line executions involving `LSQuarantine`. This activity is significant as it is commonly associated with MacOS adware and other malicious software. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could indicate an attempt to track or manipulate downloaded packages, potentially leading to further system compromise or persistent adware infections.

The analytic identifies modifications to the registry path .wav\\OpenWithProgIds, associated with the Snake Malware campaign. This activity is significant because Snake's WerFault.exe uses this registry path to decrypt an encrypted blob containing critical components like the AES key, IV, and paths for its kernel driver and loader. If confirmed malicious, this could allow the attacker to load and execute Snake's kernel driver, leading to potential system compromise and persistent access.

The following analytic detects a modification to the Windows registry setting "LongPathsEnabled," which allows file paths longer than 260 characters. This detection leverages data from the Endpoint.Registry datamodel, focusing on changes to the specific registry path and value. This activity is significant because adversaries, including malware like BlackByte, exploit this setting to bypass file path limitations, potentially aiding in evasion techniques. If confirmed malicious, this modification could facilitate the execution of long-path payloads, aiding in persistence and further system compromise.

The following analytic identifies a source host failing to authenticate against a remote host with multiple users, potentially indicating a Password Spraying attack. It leverages Windows Event 4625 (failed logon attempts) and Logon Type 3 (remote authentication) to detect this behavior. This activity is significant as it may represent an adversary attempting to gain initial access or elevate privileges within an Active Directory environment. If confirmed malicious, this could lead to unauthorized access, privilege escalation, and further compromise of the network.

This analytic detects potential exploitation attempts against Adobe ColdFusion vulnerabilities CVE-2023-29298 and CVE-2023-26360. It monitors requests to specific ColdFusion Administrator endpoints, especially those with an unexpected additional forward slash, using the Web datamodel. This activity is significant for a SOC as it indicates attempts to bypass access controls, which can lead to unauthorized access to ColdFusion administration endpoints. If confirmed malicious, this could result in data theft, brute force attacks, or further exploitation of other vulnerabilities, posing a serious security risk to the environment.

The following analytic identifies instances where three or more distinct registry modification events associated with MITRE ATT&CK Technique T1112 are detected. It leverages data from the Risk data model in Splunk, focusing on registry-related sources and MITRE technique annotations. This activity is significant because multiple registry modifications can indicate an attempt to persist, hide malicious configurations, or erase forensic evidence. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could allow attackers to maintain persistent access, execute malicious code, and evade detection, posing a severe threat to the integrity and security of the affected host.

The analytic identifies attempts to exploit the JetBrains TeamCity Authentication Bypass vulnerability (CVE-2024-27198). It detects suspicious POST requests to the `/app/rest/users` and `/app/rest/users/id:1/tokens` endpoints, which are indicative of attempts to create new administrator users or generate admin access tokens without authentication. This activity is significant as it can lead to full control over the TeamCity server, including all projects, builds, agents, and artifacts. If confirmed malicious, attackers could gain unauthorized administrative access, leading to severe security breaches.

The following analytic identifies potential exploitation attempts of the Confluence CVE-2023-22515 vulnerability. It detects successful accesses (HTTP status 200) to specific vulnerable endpoints by analyzing web logs within the Splunk 'Web' Data Model. This activity is significant for a SOC as it indicates possible privilege escalation attempts in Confluence. If confirmed malicious, attackers could gain unauthorized access or create accounts with escalated privileges, leading to potential data breaches or further exploitation within the environment.

The analytic identifies instances where CrushFTP has blocked access due to exceeding the maximum number of simultaneous connections from a single IP address. This activity may indicate brute force attempts, credential stuffing, or automated attacks against the CrushFTP server. This detection is particularly relevant following the discovery of CVE-2025-31161, an authentication bypass vulnerability in CrushFTP versions 10.0.0 through 10.8.3 and 11.0.0 through 11.3.0.

The analytic detects potentially malicious command lines using a pretrained machine learning text classifier. It identifies unusual keyword combinations in command lines, such as "streamreader," "webclient," "mutex," "function," and "computehash," which are often associated with adversarial PowerShell code execution for C2 communication. This detection leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on command lines longer than 200 characters. This activity is significant as it can indicate an attempt to execute malicious scripts, potentially leading to unauthorized code execution, data exfiltration, or further system compromise.

Detects potential initial exploitation attempts against VMware Horizon deployments running a vulnerable version of Log4j (CVE-2021-44228). Specifically, this rule looks for process creation events where the parent process is 'ws_TomcatService.exe' and the created process is NOT 'cmd.exe' or 'powershell.exe'. This aims to catch unexpected executables launched by the vulnerable Tomcat service as a result of successful Log4j exploitation.

This rule detects exploitation attempts against the Log4j RCE vulnerability, also known as Log4Shell (CVE-2021-44228). It looks for various JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface) lookup patterns, including LDAP, RMI, LDAPS, DNS, NIS, NDS, CORBA, and IIOP, as well as obfuscated forms of these patterns, which are commonly used to trigger the vulnerability. The rule specifically filters out known vulnerability scanning traffic from Nessus to reduce false positives.

This rule detects suspicious sub-processes spawned by common web server processes on Linux systems. It specifically looks for web server processes (Apache, Nginx, Lighttpd, Node, Caddy, Tomcat, WebSphere) executing common system utilities and commands such as 'whoami', 'ifconfig', 'ip', 'uname', 'cat', 'crontab', 'hostname', 'iptables', 'netstat', 'pwd', and 'route'. This behavior is indicative of a web shell being used to execute commands on the compromised server.

Detects potential OGNL Injection exploitation attempts in JVM-based applications, which could lead to Remote Code Execution (RCE). This rule specifically looks for error messages indicating OGNL parsing failures, such as 'org.apache.commons.ognl.OgnlException' or 'ExpressionSyntaxException', which are common indicators when an attacker attempts to inject malicious OGNL expressions. This type of vulnerability has been exploited in high-profile cases like Apache Struts (CVE-2017-5638) and Confluence (CVE-2022-26134).
