Detects potential DLL sideloading where the legitimate Avira antivirus binary (avscan.exe) loads a custom DLL (avscan.dll) from user-writable directories such as AppData, Public, or ProgramData, potentially accompanied by a configuration file.
Detects processes rapidly invoking multiple system and network reconnaissance APIs (such as NetGetJoinInformation, NetSessionEnum, GetAdaptersAddresses, etc.) within a short window, which is indicative of automated discovery or reconnaissance activity.
Detects the execution of an application named avscan.exe from suspicious writable directories such as Users Public, ProgramData, or AppData Local, followed by an outbound public network connection within a one-hour window.
Detects potential staging and execution of files from the Microsoft Vault directory within AppData, often associated with adversary tooling or credential theft.
Detects attempts to redirect Python package resolution away from the default PyPI index. This is achieved by monitoring pip CLI arguments (--index-url, --extra-index-url), environment variables (PIP_INDEX_URL, PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL, PIP_CONFIG_FILE), or the creation/modification of pip configuration files (pip.conf, pip.ini). Such activity is often associated with software supply chain attacks where an adversary attempts to force the installation of malicious packages from a controlled repository.
Detects instances where a Python process spawns a command-line shell (cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or bash) within 15 seconds of starting, while executing common reconnaissance or utility commands. This behavior is indicative of malicious code executing at import-time, a technique often associated with supply chain compromises in Python packages.
This rule detects potential persistence via Python environment variable manipulation (PYTHONPATH) followed by suspicious network activity from a child process of python.exe. It specifically looks for the modification of the PYTHONPATH environment variable using PowerShell on Windows or shell configuration files on Unix-like systems, followed by a python.exe-initiated network connection (like curl) to external domains, which may indicate the execution of a malicious sitecustomize.py hook.
This rule detects instances where Python package management processes (pip or python) perform build or installation tasks, immediately followed by an outbound network connection initiated by the same process tree to a non-PyPI domain. This behavior is indicative of a supply chain attack where a malicious package contains code (e.g., in setup.py) that beacons to an attacker-controlled server upon installation.
Detects Node.js or ProfileQuickHost processes performing file operations (read, write, rename) on sensitive browser directories, such as 'Local Extension Settings' or wallet-related folders. This pattern is commonly observed in credential-stealing malware attempting to extract browser-stored secrets or cryptocurrency wallet data.
This rule detects suspicious process lineage where a Python interpreter executes system commands indicative of a compromised or trojanized pandas package. Specifically, it identifies Python processes spawning command-line utilities for malicious shell operations (e.g., cmd.exe /c calc.exe on Windows or uname -a on Linux/macOS), suggesting an attempt to verify successful arbitrary code execution via a hijacked library function like read_json.
