Detects a root SSH sign-in from a public IP address or known attacker IP, followed within 30 minutes by a write or modification to the root authorized_keys file on the same device.
Detects web server processes (such as apache2, nginx, httpd, php-fpm, or w3wp.exe) spawning shell interpreters (such as bash, sh, cmd.exe, or powershell.exe), which is a common indicator of web shell activity or application exploitation.
Detects web server worker processes (such as php-fpm, apache2, nginx, w3wp.exe) spawning download utilities like curl or wget, certutil with transfer flags, or initiating /dev/tcp network connections, which may indicate web application exploitation or webshell activity.
Detects web server processes (such as Apache, httpd, or PHP) spawning a Unix shell (sh, bash, dash) and executing discovery commands (such as id, hostname, uname) with output redirection to proof files or embedded in callback URLs via command substitution.
Detects potential vulnerability scanning, enumeration, or bulk data extraction against Request Tracker (RT) web paths by monitoring high request volumes, distinct URI counts, or large response byte sizes within CommonSecurityLog data.
Detects the creation or modification of web script files (.aspx, .jsp) within common web application directories by unusual processes (such as command shells or download utilities) or by non-standard user accounts, indicating potential web shell deployment.
Detects suspicious process execution where a shell or scripting tool is spawned by the nsppe process or running under the nobody account, followed closely by file creation or modification activity in persistence locations or NetScaler GUI web directories.
Detects operator synchronization scripts (sync-all.sh, sync-memory.sh, sync-cc-users.sh) spawning SSH, rsync, or scp commands targeting AI-named jump-server accounts (claude, grok, gemini, glm).
Detects script files (PHP, JSP, etc.) created or renamed within web root directories by the ProFTPD process, indicating potential exploitation of the mod_copy module (CVE-2015-3306) to upload web shells.
Detects web or FTP server parent processes (such as apache2, httpd, nginx, php-fpm, or proftpd) spawning shell or utility processes (such as bash, sh, python, nc, curl, wget), which is consistent with webshell execution or post-exploitation activities.
Detects potential abuse of Tailscale SSH Unix socket forwarding where the tailscaled daemon touches sensitive files/sockets (such as docker.sock or /etc/shadow) or creates/replaces Unix sockets following an SSH session.
Detects modifications to the Tor configuration file (torrc) that permit SSH traffic (port 22) in the exit policy, followed by a Tor service reload or restart on the same device within a 4-hour window. This behavior may indicate an adversary setting up an onion routing proxy or covert tunnel.
Identifies devices with Signal software flagged by Defender Vulnerability Management for CVE-2026-113380 (RingRTC before 2.72.0, hangup commands dropped when call state machine queue is flooded). Exposure rule, not an exploit detection; results are deduplicated per device and sorted by recent Signal activity.
Detects instances of GitLab and Ruby running vulnerable software versions based on software inventory checks against fixed release versions.
Detects the execution of rm commands using force flags to delete multiple critical appliance, system, and web server log files simultaneously on Linux hosts.
Detects potential web shell activity where a web or application server process (such as IIS, Apache, Nginx, or Tomcat) writes a script file (e.g., .aspx, .jsp, .php) into a web-accessible directory, followed shortly by spawning a command-line shell or utility process.
Detects anomalous activities associated with potential PHP2Shell exploitation or webshell deployment where a web server worker (such as Apache, HTTPD, or PHP) spawns a Unix shell containing suspicious utility tokens, drops a PHP file outside excluded directories, or creates a PHP session-derived file.
Detects suspicious command execution activities using Azure RunCommand, Custom Script Extension, or Azure Connected Machine Agent combined with potentially malicious command arguments or tools such as PowerShell encoded commands, 'IEX', download strings, certutil, whoami, base64, curl, or wget.
Detects the modification or setting of the execInstalledOnly parameter to false, 0, or disabled on VMware ESXi or Linux hosts via process execution command lines or syslog messages, often associated with running uninstalled or arbitrary scripts/binaries in virtualized environments.
Correlates an inbound connection to a Python/Xoscar/Xinference pool process with an outbound connection from a shell spawned by that same pool process shortly afterward, potentially indicating exploitation and reverse shell activity.
Detects the presence of Cisco SD-WAN vManage software, vulnerabilities related to CVE-2026-76504, associated file artifacts, and process executions across endpoints using inventory and event logs.
