Detects periodic execution cycles of ERAAgent.exe that involve memory protection changes, characteristic of the SLEEPWALKER malware's XOR-decrypt-execute-reencrypt loop scheduled by a cron-like mechanism.
This rule monitors process command lines for identifiers related to virtual machine communication interfaces such as 'VMCI', 'AF_VSOCK', 'svm_cid', or 'vm:2'. It specifically targets both the ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) Agent and any other processes utilizing these communication mechanisms, which can be indicators of inter-process communication across virtual machine boundaries or potential hypervisor-related activity.
Detects ERAAgent.exe (ESET Remote Administrator Agent) interacting with suspicious named pipes (e.g., mojo, spoolss) and attempts to extract credentials from command line parameters, indicating potential credential dumping or lateral movement techniques using the agent process.
Detects potential web reconnaissance or scanning activity against Microsoft IIS servers. The rule identifies suspicious behavior by monitoring for high frequencies of distinct URI requests, excessive 404 Not Found status codes indicative of path brute-forcing, and the presence of known security scanning user-agents.
Detects anomalous DNS activity characterized by either unauthorized DNS zone transfer (AXFR/IXFR) requests or aggressive subdomain enumeration patterns from external IP addresses. This rule monitors for high volumes of non-standard DNS queries or distinct subdomain lookups within a 15-minute window, which are common precursors to reconnaissance activities.
This rule monitors for HTTP traffic directed at .vu TLD domains, which contain the specific Cloudflare 'Just a moment' browser-check page. This pattern is characteristic of the NovaCookies Phishing-as-a-Service (PhaaS) platform, which uses such gates to prevent automated analysis and security scanners from accessing the final phishing page.
This rule detects JavaScript code patterns indicative of the NovaCookies phishing kit, which employs timing-based anti-analysis techniques to detect if a web developer console is open. By checking the execution time of code via a 'clock' function and monitoring for a 'debugger' statement, the kit attempts to withhold the phishing lure from researchers.
Detects periodic execution cycles of ERAAgent.exe that involve memory protection changes, characteristic of the SLEEPWALKER malware's XOR-decrypt-execute-reencrypt loop scheduled by a cron-like mechanism.
This rule detects suspicious file system activity (creation, modification, or renaming) performed by the ESET Remote Administrator (ERA) Agent process, excluding files within standard ESET installation and ProgramData directories. This behavior may indicate an adversary attempting to leverage the legitimate ERA agent to perform unauthorized file operations or masquerading as the agent.
Detects modifications to Windows LSA and LanmanServer registry keys (RestrictAnonymous, NullSessionPipes) in conjunction with ERAAgent.exe process execution, as well as ERAAgent creating named pipes accessible by anonymous logon, which may indicate configuration tampering to facilitate unauthorized access or credential collection.
