Detects the execution of MSBuild.exe when spawned by a PowerShell process. This is a common pattern for proxying execution of malicious code, such as the LxBaseRAT, by leveraging MSBuild's inline task capability to execute C# or VB.NET code within a signed Microsoft binary.

Acronis TRU (Sept 2025) documented a FileFix campaign where a PowerShell loader downloads images from Bitbucket that conceal embedded malicious components, ultimately deploying a Go-based loader and StealC.

FileFix JavaScript silently writes the malicious command to the clipboard the instant the lure button is clicked, producing a much shorter human-reaction interval between browser launch and shell spawn than a manually typed path would allow.

Detects the creation of registry keys associated with the installation of Chrome or Edge browser extensions, specifically targeting the behavior exhibited by the CrashFix malware which masquerades as an ad blocker to achieve persistence.

Detects the use of the WinGet 'configure' command to process PowerShell DSC configuration files. This method can be abused to execute arbitrary PowerShell code within a Script resource without explicitly invoking powershell.exe, potentially bypassing certain monitoring or security controls focused solely on the PowerShell executable.

Detects instances where the WindowsPackageManagerServer.exe (WinGet COM Server) is invoked to perform DSC (Desired State Configuration) operations (via ConfigurationStaticFunctions) by a process other than the standard winget.exe. This behavior is indicative of an attempt to bypass process-based monitoring of winget.exe by interacting directly with the COM API using custom or alternative tools like DSCourier.exe.

Detects access or interrogation of the WinGet configuration history database (config.db) by non-standard or user-supplied Python scripts, which may indicate an attempt to enumerate installed package configurations or extract sensitive information from the local configuration state.

Detects instances where cmd.exe spawns a PowerShell process with the '-executionpolicy bypass' argument. This pattern is commonly used by attackers to execute malicious scripts while circumventing Windows PowerShell execution policy restrictions.

Detects the download and subsequent extraction of the Python embeddable zip package to directories under 'C:\Users\Public'. This activity is consistent with techniques used by threat actors, such as APT37, to establish a covert Python runtime environment on a compromised host for further malicious operations.

Detects the execution of cmd.exe spawned by explorer.exe that contains suspicious command line parameters. The rule specifically targets the use of obfuscated Windows batch substring expansion (e.g., %VAR:~0,1%) or commands being executed directly from common user-writable directories like Temp or Downloads, which are common indicators of malicious LNK file abuse.

Detects the creation of files in the Windows Temp directory that match specific naming patterns associated with UnixStealer, including tool executables, database files, stolen data archives, and debug logs. These artifacts are characteristic of the tool's staging and activity tracking behaviors.

Detects the use of the Windows command shell 'copy' utility to concatenate separate files, such as 'header.doc' and 'body.doc', into an executable file named 'Windowsupdate.exe'. This technique is commonly used by adversaries to reassemble malicious payloads that were split to evade signature-based detection or bypass security controls.

Detects unauthorized access to VPN configuration files associated with common VPN providers (CyberGhost, NordVPN, ExpressVPN). This behavior is characteristic of the Hannibal Stealer, which attempts to exfiltrate these files to compromise user VPN sessions and credentials. The rule filters out legitimate process access to minimize false positives.

Detects the use of PowerShell to remove the 'Zone.Identifier' NTFS Alternate Data Stream (ADS) from files. This stream is responsible for the 'Mark-of-the-Web' (MOTW) which triggers security warnings in Windows, including SmartScreen and Protected View. Adversaries use this technique to evade security controls on downloaded malicious files.

Detects malicious PowerShell command chains often used in ClickFix campaigns. These commands typically move zip files from the user's Downloads directory to a temporary folder, extract them using the tar utility, and execute an embedded PowerShell script using conhost in headless mode. This technique is designed to bypass AMSI command-line inspection by offloading the actual payload execution to an extracted, unmonitored script.

Detects the use of MSBuild.exe to compile and execute inline code or tasks. The rule identifies suspicious command-line patterns (such as Task/CodeTaskFactory), execution from non-standard directories (Temp, AppData, Downloads, etc.), and subsequent network or child process activity originating from these MSBuild instances, indicating potential defense evasion or code execution.

Detects execution of the Microsoft .NET utility InstallUtil.exe with command-line arguments typically used to execute arbitrary code or bypass application whitelisting. The rule monitors for common bypass switches such as /logfile, /LogToConsole=false, or /U, while filtering out executions from standard Windows directories to identify potential malicious usage of this signed binary proxy.
