This rule detects potentially malicious Command and Control (C2) traffic utilizing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) to interact with public resolvers like Cloudflare, Google, and Quad9. It identifies both high-frequency, repeated direct-to-resolver TLS sessions and specific HTTP requests to these resolvers that resolve domains associated with known C2 infrastructure, such as the ClickFix campaign.
Detects a suspicious sequence where a process loads the .NET CLR (clr.dll or mscoree.dll) and shortly thereafter accesses specific low-prevalence file extensions (.raw or .pak) within high-risk directories (AppData/Local/Temp, ProgramData, or Users/Public). This behavior is characteristic of shellcode loaders (such as the WAV-shellcode loader) that decrypt and execute RAT payloads from obfuscated containers in memory. The rule intentionally excludes common desktop applications to minimize false positives.
Detects automated reconnaissance using WMI or PowerShell to perform broad queries for system environment, security products, network adapters, software, and hardware attributes. The detection focuses on clusters of distinct WMI reconnaissance categories occurring within a 15-minute window, which is often indicative of pre-C2 profiling by adversaries.

Detects the execution of PowerShell with a bypass execution policy that performs a download or web request to save content to a file in the user's temp directory, followed by the immediate execution of that file. This pattern is characteristic of multi-stage malware droppers or fileless attack techniques attempting to stage and execute malicious scripts from temporary locations.
Detects a sequence of events characteristic of exploitation against RouterOS (CVE-2026-67276/CVE-2026-86060), involving a failed SSH login attempt with the username '-2', followed by the creation of a new user account within the same SSH session, and a successful login with that newly created account.
Detects the WAV-based loader staging technique: a RIFF/WAVE file carrying a high-entropy appended blob, or a companion DLL chain (rdCore.dll/WMPCL.dll/WPFLocalizeExtension.dll) referencing the hidden audio payload and the encrypted monitor.raw container used to unpack the final RAT
This rule detects potential DLL sideloading activity where legitimate, signed binaries (such as COTFileReadApp.exe or DeElevate64.exe) are executed from non-standard directories (e.g., AppData, Temp, Downloads) while loading specifically identified malicious or sideloaded DLLs. The detection identifies patterns where these binaries operate outside their expected vendor installation paths, indicating a likely attempt to hijack execution flow.

Detects NeedyMantis' initial C2 beacon: an HTTP GET to /library/zip/ on port 443, anchored to the URI root, carrying a client-originated 'Set-Cookie:' header (clients normally send 'Cookie:', never 'Set-Cookie:' -- this direction reversal is the core anomaly and is near-impossible for legitimate traffic) alongside an explicit 'Upgrade: websocket' header. Matching the literal header text (not just header-name presence) and anchoring the URI removes generic WebSocket apps and any unrelated path containing '/library/zip/' as a substring.
