This rule detects potential container escape attempts by monitoring for malicious use of the 'docker cp' command with path traversal sequences (../) or the creation of suspicious files by the docker daemon outside of expected docker storage directories, which may indicate symlink injection attacks to modify files on the host filesystem.

This rule detects unauthorized exploitation attempts against Gitea environments vulnerable to CVE-2026-20896. When Gitea is configured with REVERSE_PROXY_TRUSTED_PROXIES set to permit all sources, an attacker can bypass authentication by injecting the 'X-WEBAUTH-USER: admin' header in HTTP requests. This allows the attacker to gain administrative privileges and perform unauthorized actions, such as creating new admin accounts or accessing restricted API endpoints.

109
Detects unauthorized HTTP requests to Gitea containing an 'X-WEBAUTH-USER' header set to 'admin'. This targets CVE-2026-20896, where a misconfigured reverse proxy trust setting allows external users to spoof authentication and gain administrative privileges.

Detects attempts to perform container escapes by abusing the 'docker cp' command. The rule identifies path traversal sequences in 'docker cp' arguments, as well as unauthorized shell or script execution spawned by container daemon processes (e.g., dockerd, containerd) following a file copy operation, and specific file creation patterns indicative of a container escape attempt.

006
This rule detects the execution of Docker containers or related CI/CD runner processes (like Gitea act_runner) with insecure configuration options. These options, such as --privileged, --pid=host, or mounting the Docker socket, can facilitate container escapes or unauthorized host-level access.

005
Detects potential container escape attempts via 'docker cp' path traversal attacks or suspicious shell execution spawned from the Docker daemon. The rule monitors for directory traversal sequences in 'docker cp' commands, the use of PoC tooling strings, file modifications outside expected container paths, and shell process spawning originating from Docker-related parent processes.

005
Detects Gitea act_runner processes spawning Docker containers with dangerous configurations, such as privileged mode, host namespace mounts, or security-opt bypasses, followed by the execution of 'nsenter' or shell processes, which are indicative of a container escape attempt to the host.

107
Detects Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attempts exploiting URL parser differentials. Attackers append a double-slash sequence to a legitimate github.com blob URL to trick the backend into resolving an absolute local filesystem path. The rule specifically targets sensitive paths such as /proc/self/environ, /var/task/, and application source files to perform Local File Read (LFR) or access internal cloud metadata services.

104
Detects suspicious execution patterns originating from Gitea act_runner that indicate potential container escape attempts or host namespace manipulation. The rule flags the use of sensitive docker flags such as --pid=host, --ipc=host, --cap-add=ALL, and security profile unconfining, alongside the execution of 'nsenter' or the existence of specific proof-of-concept markers related to container escape vulnerabilities.

Detects the use of 'docker cp' to copy files out of a container to the host filesystem. This rule identifies suspicious patterns that may exploit the path traversal vulnerability CVE-2026-43503, which allows an attacker to escape the intended destination directory on the host.

Detects the initialization of unprivileged user and network namespaces combined with specific IPsec tunnel configurations (xfrm/esp/veth). This sequence of operations is a known prerequisite for exploiting the DirtyClone (CVE-2026-43503) vulnerability, a Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) in the Linux kernel.

008
Detects unauthorized access to sensitive credential files (Docker, AWS, npm, PyPI, GCloud) by Node.js processes, specifically when those processes are triggered by common npm lifecycle scripts like preinstall, postinstall, or peer dependency scripts. This is a common pattern observed in supply chain attacks involving malicious npm packages.

Detects Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attempts targeting cloud provider metadata services (specifically GCP) or sensitive local files like '/proc/self/environ' using common bypass patterns and request structures. These requests typically originate from an application process attempting to access internal environment variables or cloud identity metadata.

Detects various techniques used by an attacker to escape a container environment or gain unauthorized access to host-level resources. This includes the execution of namespace manipulation tools (nsenter, unshare, chroot), unauthorized access to the docker.sock Unix socket, mounting of host filesystems from within a container, and direct attempts to access the host's /proc/1 namespace files.

Detects when the node.js runtime process accesses Docker configuration files, which may contain sensitive authentication credentials or registry settings. This behavior is atypical for standard node.js applications and could indicate credential theft or unauthorized container environment interaction.

003
Detects activity indicative of container escape attempts, specifically identifying the use of 'docker cp' with path traversal sequences to manipulate host files, or the unauthorized execution of shells and utilities directly spawned by the container runtime daemon (dockerd). It also monitors for execution patterns associated with known container escape proof-of-concept scripts.

Detects potential container breakout or privilege escalation attempts originating from Gitea act-runner processes. The rule monitors for the execution of containers with dangerous security configurations (e.g., host PID/IPC namespace, privileged capabilities, disabled security modules) or the use of nsenter to break out of a container into the host environment.

Detects the use of the 'docker cp' command with suspicious path traversal characters or known PoC artifacts in the destination parameter. This behavior is indicative of an attempt to exploit path traversal vulnerabilities in the Docker daemon (such as those allowing container escape) by writing files outside the container's intended scope onto the host filesystem.

This rule detects two distinct malicious activities related to Gitea installations: 1) Container escape attempts involving 'act-runner' processes configured with dangerous flags like --pid=host, --cap-add=ALL, or usage of nsenter, and 2) Potential administrative impersonation attempts against a Gitea instance via injection of the X-WEBAUTH-USER: admin HTTP header.

Detects attempts to escape a Docker container to the host filesystem by exploiting directory traversal vulnerabilities within the 'docker cp' command. It identifies suspicious CLI arguments indicating path traversal, the presence of known PoC artifacts, and file write events initiated by the Docker daemon outside of expected container directory paths.

103
Detects exploitation attempts against Gitea instances where an attacker impersonates an admin user by injecting the 'X-WEBAUTH-USER' header. This vulnerability typically occurs when 'REVERSE_PROXY_TRUSTED_PROXIES' is misconfigured to trust all proxies ('*'), allowing unauthenticated users to gain administrative access via header manipulation. The rule covers web request headers, container logs for suspicious admin creation, and process execution arguments associated with the exploitation.
