Detects anomalous process execution where a non-privileged process spawns a child process with root/SYSTEM (uid 0) privileges without passing through recognized elevation binaries (e.g., sudo, su, pkexec). This behavior is consistent with post-exploitation privilege escalation techniques, such as exploiting hijacked file descriptors or callback structures to gain root authority.

Detects modifications to the /etc/sudoers or /etc/sudoers.d configuration files by non-root users. This activity is often associated with privilege escalation attempts where an adversary attempts to modify sudo policies to grant themselves elevated permissions or bypass password requirements.

Detects anomalous staging activity associated with the 'PPPoEject' exploit. The rule identifies the creation of GRE or IP6GRE interfaces on bonding devices immediately preceding or concurrent with FUSE filesystem mounting or I/O activity. This pattern matches the exploitation workflow of racing pppoe_sendmsg() skb reallocation via dev_hard_header() to achieve privilege escalation.

Detects unauthorized modifications, creations, or renames of Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) configuration files or core shared libraries (such as pam_rootok.so or pam_permit.so) by non-root users. Attackers often modify these files to bypass authentication mechanisms and achieve privilege escalation. The rule excludes common package management tools to minimize false positives.

Detects a specifically malformed IPv6 Routing Header (type 0) with a 'segments_left' value of 255 preceding an Authentication Header (AH). This signature targets an exploit pattern known as 'DirtyAH6', which aims to trigger a remote kernel crash or potential remote code execution on vulnerable systems by manipulating IPv6 header processing.

Detects a sequence of events where a process within a container namespace attempts to interact with the host filesystem (e.g., /proc/1/root, nsenter) followed shortly by an unexpected gain of root privileges or execution of setuid(0) that is not associated with legitimate su or sudo usage.
