The following analytic identifies network traffic where the higher layer protocol does not match the expected port, such as non-HTTP traffic on TCP port 80. It leverages data from network traffic inspection technologies like Bro or Palo Alto Networks firewalls. This activity is significant because it may indicate attempts to bypass firewall restrictions or conceal malicious communications. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could allow attackers to evade detection, maintain persistence, or exfiltrate data through commonly allowed ports, posing a significant threat to network security.
The following analytic identifies the use of cleartext protocols that risk leaking sensitive information. It detects network traffic on legacy protocols such as Telnet (port 23), POP3 (port 110), IMAP (port 143), and non-anonymous FTP (port 21). The detection leverages the Network_Traffic data model to identify TCP traffic on these ports. Monitoring this activity is crucial as it can expose credentials and other sensitive data to interception. If confirmed malicious, attackers could capture authentication details, leading to unauthorized access and potential data breaches.
The analytic detects the use of `reg.exe` to export Windows Registry hives, specifically `sam`, `system`, or `security`, which may contain sensitive credentials. This activity indicates potential offline credential access attacks, often executed from untrusted processes or scripts. If confirmed malicious, attackers could gain access to credential data, enabling further compromise and lateral movement within the network.
The analytic detects the usage of a renamed 7-Zip executable using Sysmon data. It leverages the OriginalFileName field to identify instances where the 7-Zip process has been renamed. This activity is significant as attackers often rename legitimate tools to evade detection while staging or exfiltrating data. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could indicate data exfiltration attempts or other unauthorized data manipulation, potentially leading to significant data breaches or loss of sensitive information. Analysts should validate the legitimacy of the 7-Zip executable and investigate parallel processes for further suspicious activities.
This analytic identifies high-severity intrusion events based on the classification assigned to Snort rules within Cisco Secure Firewall logs. It leverages Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense logs and focuses on events classified as: A Network Trojan was Detected, Successful Administrator Privilege Gain, Successful User Privilege Gain, Attempt to Login By a Default Username and Password, Known malware command and control traffic, Known malicious file or file based exploit, Known client side exploit attempt, Large Scale Information Leak. These classifications typically represent significant threats such as remote code execution, credential theft, lateral movement, or malware communication. Detection of these classifications should be prioritized for immediate investigation.
This analytic detects exploitation activity of CVE-2023-27532 using Cisco Secure Firewall Intrusion Events. It leverages Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense IntrusionEvent logs to identify cases where Snort signature 61514 (Veeam Backup and Replication credential dump attempt) is followed within a 5-minute window by 64795 (Veeam Backup and Replication xp_cmdshell invocation attempt), which detects the use of `xp_cmdshell`, a common post-exploitation technique. If confirmed malicious, this behavior is highly indicative of a successful exploitation of CVE-2023-27532, followed by remote command execution or credential dumping.
This analytic detects Lumma Stealer activity using Cisco Secure Firewall Intrusion Events. It leverages Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense IntrusionEvent logs to identify cases where four or more specific Snort signature IDs occur within a 15-minute span from the same host. This behavior is highly indicative of a successful infection by Lumma Stealer.
This analytic detects Lumma Stealer download attempts using Cisco Secure Firewall Intrusion Events. It leverages Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense IntrusionEvent logs to identify cases where Snort signatures with specific IDs have been triggered. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could indicate an active infection of Lumma Stealer.
The analytic detects the execution of msiexec.exe with the /y switch parameter, which enables the loading of DLLRegisterServer. This activity can indicate an attempt to register malicious DLLs, potentially leading to code execution or persistence on the system. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code, escalate privileges, or maintain persistence within the environment.
The following analytic detects the use of Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) to retrieve information about running processes, specifically targeting the command lines used to launch those processes. This detection leverages data from Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agents, focusing on logs containing process details and command-line executions. This activity is significant as it may indicate suspicious behavior, such as a user or process gathering detailed process information, which is uncommon for non-technical users. If confirmed malicious, this could allow an attacker to gain insights into running processes, aiding in further exploitation or lateral movement.
