IOC sweep against network telemetry for confirmed BengalSEO/MayaBot campaign infrastructure: the Hostmaza backend IP (5.101.140.80), Matomo tracking domains (stats.us3.org, us3.my), named MayaBot C2 domains (cus.cam, dll.lat, us99.org), and the ~170-domain Traffic Distribution System redirector fleet used to funnel victims to payload delivery. The source intel report contains no file hashes (MD5/SHA1/SHA256) -- only IPs, domains, and URLs -- so this sweep is IP/domain-only. Note the much larger corpus of single-use lure-page domains (~1,000 additional indicators) is excluded as too high-churn for static embedding.

Detects MayaBot's scheduled-task persistence chain by correlating two signals on the same device within a 60-minute window: (1) schtasks.exe creating a daily task referencing a hidden batch script (update.bat/backup.bat/firewall-update.bat) under AppData\Local, spawned from wscript.exe/cscript.exe/cmd.exe, and (2) cmd.exe launching a hidden-window PowerShell process referencing the same batch scripts under AppData\Local. Requiring both signals together, anchored to the AppData\Local path, sharply reduces false positives compared to alerting on either behavior alone.

Detects the use of rundll32.exe to execute comsvcs.dll's MiniDump functionality against the LSASS process, a common technique for dumping credentials. The rule includes behavioral correlation by identifying the same user account executing this pattern on multiple devices within a one-hour window.

Detects a potential process hollowing technique where 'Finalized.dll' (loaded from unconventional locations like a ComponentsFolder or System32) is used to spawn 'clspack.exe' in a suspended state from a non-standard path (e.g., AppData\Microsoft). This sequence indicates an attempt to mask malicious execution under a legitimate process name.
