This rule detects unauthorized modifications to browser search provider settings in the Windows Registry, targeting keys associated with Chrome and Microsoft Edge search configuration. This activity is often indicative of browser hijacking or search engine redirection campaigns, such as the NinjaMare malware.

This rule detects a suspicious sequence of events where a process with a name resembling an updater (AutoUpdate.exe or au.exe) accesses a specific remote configuration file from a herokuapp.com URL, followed by the creation or modification of specific application binaries (e.g., InstaTime.exe, ffmpegsumo.dll). This pattern is indicative of a supply chain compromise or an automated software update hijacking where malicious binaries are staged to replace legitimate application components.

Detects the modification or replacement of critical Linux system daemons (crond, sshd, polkitd, etc.) followed by a service restart or reload. This behavior is indicative of potential trojanization or unauthorized tampering of system processes to establish persistence or inject malicious code.

Detects a sequence of system reconnaissance commands consistent with a Linux stager preparing to deploy a malicious cron payload. The rule identifies the combination of process enumeration (specifically targeting haproxy or cron services), privilege verification, and OS environment profiling (hostname, kernel, or distribution details) occurring within a single execution context.
