Detects the loading or presence of the Alinubx.sys kernel driver, a malicious component used for Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) attacks. This driver facilitates the mass termination of security product processes (AV/EDR) by exposing a specific IOCTL (0x222024) to interface with kernel-mode process termination primitives (e.g., ZwTerminateProcess), often serving as a precursor to the deployment of stealers like Rapuncel.

Detects the loading of the 'user32.dll' library into a process named 'firefox.exe' where the process is either unsigned or executing from a suspicious location like 'ProgramData'. This pattern is consistent with the behavior of BabylonRAT, which masquerades as the Firefox browser to perform keylogging by hooking system APIs.

This rule monitors Portable Executable (PE) files to identify those signed with certificates associated with Discord Inc. or Lenovo. Adversaries frequently abuse stolen or fraudulently obtained code-signing certificates from legitimate, reputable companies to bypass security controls like Windows SmartScreen, gain persistence, or increase the likelihood of successful malware execution.

A GitHub maintainer account related to the keyv/cacheable npm package ecosystem was compromised. The attacker published malicious versions of these packages, which affected more than 400 npm packages. The malware is designed to steal cloud credentials, developer secrets, CI/CD secrets, AI tool configuration files, and cryptocurrency wallet data. It also creates persistence using Claude Code hooks and VS Code tasks.json files, and sends stolen data to attacker-controlled GitHub repositories and C2 domains.

Detects malicious usage of bcdedit.exe to weaken system boot security. The rule flags commands that disable Windows Recovery (WinRE), boot integrity checks, driver signature enforcement, or force legacy boot policies, which are often used by ransomware like TOKYOCORE to prevent system recovery and hinder defensive remediation.

Detects when the Windows Vulnerable Driver Blocklist is set to disabled. This setting is crucial for preventing the loading of known vulnerable drivers,
and its modification may indicate an attempt to bypass security controls. It is often targeted by threat actors to facilitate the installation of malicious or vulnerable drivers,
particularly in scenarios involving Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) bypass techniques.
This rule applies to systems that support the Vulnerable Driver Blocklist feature, including Windows 10 version 1903 and later, and Windows Server 2022 and later.
Note that this change will require a reboot to take effect, and this rule only detects the registry modification action.

Detects attempted file load events that did not meet the signing level requirements. It often means the file's signature is revoked or a signature with the Lifetime Signing EKU has expired.
This event is best correlated with EID 3089 to determine the error of the validation.

Detects attempts to load drivers that have been revoked by Microsoft, as indicated by EventID 3023 in the CodeIntegrity-Operational log. This event signifies that the Windows Code Integrity component has blocked a driver from loading due to its revoked certificate status, which is a critical security measure to prevent malicious or vulnerable drivers from executing on the system.

Detects Code Integrity (CI) engine blocking Microsoft Defender's processes (MpCmdRun and NisSrv) from loading unsigned DLLs. This activity may indicate an attempt to sideload arbitrary DLLs into legitimate Microsoft Defender processes, potentially for privilege escalation, persistence, or defense evasion.

The following analytic detects the use of default or publicly known named pipes associated with Cobalt Strike. It leverages Sysmon EventID 17 and 18 to identify specific named pipes commonly used by Cobalt Strike's Artifact Kit and Malleable C2 Profiles. This activity is significant because Cobalt Strike is a popular tool for adversaries to conduct post-exploitation tasks, and identifying its named pipes can reveal potential malicious activity. If confirmed malicious, this could indicate an active Cobalt Strike beacon, leading to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or further lateral movement within the network.

Detects attempts to load images or drivers that violate Windows Code Integrity policies, indicating a potential bypass attempt or the execution of unsigned/malicious code. This event signifies that the system blocked the load due to unmet authenticode signing level requirements or a policy violation.

This analytic detects suspicious data transfer activities involving the use of the `split` syscall with the `-b` option, which specifies the size of each output file. This technique can be used by attackers to evade detection by breaking large files into smaller parts, bypassing size-based security controls, and facilitating covert exfiltration of sensitive data. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized use of the `split` syscall with a specified block size, this analytic helps identify potential data exfiltration attempts.

This analytic identifies the bulk creation of ransomware notes (e.g., .txt, .html, .hta files) on an infected machine. It leverages Sysmon EventCode 11 to detect multiple instances of these file types being created within a short time frame (10 seconds). A detection is triggered if 15 or more unique readme paths are observed. This activity is a strong indicator of an active ransomware attack, where the attacker is notifying the victim of the encryption. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could lead to widespread data encryption, rendering critical files inaccessible and potentially causing significant operational disruption.

The following analytic detects suspicious attempts to find credentials stored in password stores, indicating a potential attacker's effort to access sensitive login information. Password stores are critical repositories that contain valuable credentials, and unauthorized access to them can lead to significant security breaches. By monitoring for unusual or unauthorized activities related to password store access, this analytic helps identify potential credential theft attempts, allowing security teams to respond promptly and prevent unauthorized access to critical systems and data.
