This rule detects the execution of common remote access and management (RMM) tools from non-standard directories such as user profiles, temp folders, or other locations outside of standard application installation paths (e.g., Program Files or ProgramData). Such activity is often indicative of unauthorized remote access setup or the use of portable RMM binaries by an adversary to maintain persistent access.

Detects ScreenConnect client processes initiating outbound network connections to external cloud relay addresses (typically *-relay.screenconnect.com) from locations outside of standard Program Files directories. This behavior is indicative of unauthorized, standalone, or adversary-deployed ScreenConnect instances attempting to establish a Command and Control (C2) channel, bypassing standard IT-managed deployment pathways.

Detects HTTP POST requests directed at Grav CMS endpoints where the __unique_form_id__ parameter contains directory traversal sequences (e.g., ../). This behavior is indicative of attempted exploitation of CVE-2026-42608, aimed at bypassing file system restrictions to write files to unauthorized locations outside the application's expected form data directory.

This rule performs an indicator of compromise (IOC) sweep for activities associated with the TOPHIT / VHX Harvester / @prime0 NPM typosquatting campaign. It detects known malicious C2 network connections (IPs and URLs), file artifacts (hashes) on endpoints, and suspicious email activity involving specific operator email addresses.

Detects the anomalous behavior of a Node.js process acting as a typosquatting agent. The detection identifies a node.exe process initiating a network connection to a known malicious C2 IP and port, followed by the termination of that same process within 45 seconds. This pattern is consistent with the agent crashing due to an unhandled exception (e.g., os.userInfo() failure) after beaconing.

Detects process/file hashes associated with the ChatGPT Custom GPT ClickFix
campaign via Windows process_creation telemetry. Split from the combined IOC
hunt: Sigma supports only one logsource per rule, so IP/domain/URL matching live
in separate network_connection and dns_query rules.

Detects a sequence of authentication activity indicative of a credential stuffing attack. The rule identifies a burst of failed password-only authentication attempts followed by a successful authentication for the same account. It requires that the IP address used for the successful login overlaps with the set of IPs that initiated the failed attempts, effectively filtering out typical user noise and highlighting potentially malicious activity where an attacker has identified a valid credential.

Detects the first-ever observed network connection from a device to WhatsApp Web or Telegram Web within a 30-day lookback period. This behavior is used to identify potentially unauthorized companion-device linking to a user's messenger account, which could indicate credential theft or unauthorized access.
