This rule performs an indicator of compromise (IOC) sweep for activities associated with the TOPHIT / VHX Harvester / @prime0 NPM typosquatting campaign. It detects known malicious C2 network connections (IPs and URLs), file artifacts (hashes) on endpoints, and suspicious email activity involving specific operator email addresses.

Detects the anomalous behavior of a Node.js process acting as a typosquatting agent. The detection identifies a node.exe process initiating a network connection to a known malicious C2 IP and port, followed by the termination of that same process within 45 seconds. This pattern is consistent with the agent crashing due to an unhandled exception (e.g., os.userInfo() failure) after beaconing.

Detects anomalous process execution by PeopleSoft application server processes (e.g., psappsrv, jsvc) immediately following an inbound network request. This behavior is indicative of exploitation of a Java deserialization gadget chain, such as those used by the threat actor UNC6240 to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) and spawn command interpreters.

Detects process/file hashes associated with the ChatGPT Custom GPT ClickFix
campaign via Windows process_creation telemetry. Split from the combined IOC
hunt: Sigma supports only one logsource per rule, so IP/domain/URL matching live
in separate network_connection and dns_query rules.

Detects the creation of suspicious scheduled tasks using the Windows schtasks.exe utility. The rule flags tasks that are configured to run as SYSTEM, include PowerShell encoded commands, or target directories commonly used for persistence such as Temp, AppData, or Public.

Detects the creation of named pipes associated with default Cobalt Strike malleable profiles and common open-source C2 frameworks (e.g., Sliver, Havoc) via EDR pipe-creation telemetry. These pipes are frequently used for SMB beacon communication within compromised networks.

507
Detects the ClickFix behavioral pattern where Windows Explorer (typically triggered via the Run dialog) directly spawns PowerShell.exe. This activity is indicative of a user being socially engineered into copying and executing a malicious command from a fake CAPTCHA lure directly into the shell.

Detects a sequence of suspicious activities including local account creation, modification of account security policies, and enabling of administrative services or credential exposure settings within a short time window. This typically indicates post-exploitation behavior where an adversary is attempting to establish persistence or facilitate further lateral movement.

Detects the installation of unauthorized AI-related browser extensions followed by outbound network communication from the browser process to known external AI service API endpoints within one hour. This behavior is indicative of potential data exfiltration via shadow AI tools, bypassing standard enterprise DLP controls.

Detects the first-ever observed network connection from a device to WhatsApp Web or Telegram Web within a 30-day lookback period. This behavior is used to identify potentially unauthorized companion-device linking to a user's messenger account, which could indicate credential theft or unauthorized access.

Detects DNS lookups and outbound network connections to known command and control (C2) and staging domains associated with the STAC4924 campaign. The rule performs strict matching on domain names to ensure that subdomains are identified while avoiding false positives from partial string matches within URLs.

Detects a suspected ClickFix social engineering attack where a user is tricked into pasting malicious commands into Windows Terminal, leading to a PowerShell download, followed by the appearance of specific known malicious artifacts (LockScreenContentServer.exe, dui70.dll, or 1.bat) within 15 minutes on the same device.

Detects the use of native Windows utilities (vssadmin, wmic, wbadmin, bcdedit, and PowerShell) to delete Volume Shadow Copies, backup catalogs, or disable system recovery features. This is a common tactic used by ransomware and destructive actors to prevent system recovery.

This rule detects a suspicious sequence of events where a process named RMM.Agent.exe executes a PowerShell command to download and install 'ClientSetup.msi' via msiexec.exe, followed closely by the execution of a ScreenConnect client process. This chain of activity is consistent with unauthorized or potentially malicious deployment of ScreenConnect (ConnectWise Control) for persistent remote access.

Detects file system activity indicative of Royal and BlackSuit ransomware, specifically monitoring for the creation of ransom notes like 'README.TXT' or 'README.BlackSuit.txt' and mass renaming/encryption of files using extensions associated with these families (.royal, .royal_u, .blacksuit).

This rule performs a sweep across device file and process events to identify the execution or presence of files matching a curated list of 161 SHA256 hashes associated with twelve known malicious threat actors and families (Lynx, ANUBIS, Rhysida, LockBit, ALPHV/BlackCat, Qilin, Medusa, The Gentlemen, NetRunner, Genesis, Pay2Key, and Handala). The rule filters out events occurring in known EDR/AV quarantine or sandbox directory structures and dedupes hits on a per-device and per-hash basis within 24-hour windows to reduce alert noise.

Identifies suspicious processes performing beacon-like network communications with rare external destinations. The rule detects consistent hourly activity intervals and high connection counts to endpoints rarely contacted by other devices in the organization, serving as a heuristic for automated C2 beaconing.

Detects instances where a process writes to known persistence locations, including Windows Registry Run keys, the Windows Startup folder, Linux shell profile configuration files (.bashrc/.bash_profile), and system-level task directories (cron and systemd units). This activity is often indicative of malicious persistence mechanisms, such as those used by compromised AI agents or backdoors to survive system reboots.

Detects the execution of PowerShell with encoded command arguments (e.g., -enc, -EncodedCommand) combined with common web-request cmdlets or download-cradle patterns (e.g., IEX, Net.WebClient, Invoke-WebRequest). This pattern is frequently used by adversaries to execute obfuscated remote payloads in memory.

Detects the creation or modification of Windows service registry keys where the ImagePath points to a binary with a non-standard file extension (e.g., .s, .c, .l). This behavior is associated with the NeedyMantis malware family, which utilizes non-standard naming for persistence mechanisms to evade basic detection.
