Detects the execution of reconnaissance commands designed to enumerate Active Directory domain trust relationships. Attackers, including those associated with ransomware operations like INC Ransom, use these tools to map organizational structures and identify pathways for lateral movement and cross-domain propagation.
Detects the creation of web scripts (aspx, php, jsp) in typical web server directories followed by suspicious shell activity (cmd, powershell, or shell execution) originating from web server processes within a 10-minute window. This behavior is indicative of a web shell being dropped and subsequently utilized for command execution.
Detects the WMI provider host process (WmiPrvSE.exe) spawning common command-line or system administration tools such as cmd.exe, powershell.exe, or rundll32.exe. This activity is correlated with a preceding network connection to the host on port 135 (DCOM/WMI), which is indicative of lateral movement using WMI.
Detects periodic network connection patterns indicative of Cobalt Strike beaconing. The rule identifies low-variance jittered traffic, where the communication interval remains relatively consistent over a defined period, consistent with default Cobalt Strike malleable C2 profiles.
This rule detects anomalous, high-frequency unauthenticated POST requests targeting NetScaler ADC and Gateway management or service endpoints (/vpn/, /logon/, /nitro/). Such patterns are characteristic of automated reconnaissance and exploitation attempts, specifically targeting vulnerabilities like CVE-2026-88771 and CVE-2026-88772.
Detects command-line activity attempting to disable, unbind, or remove NetScaler AppFW (Web Application Firewall) profiles, signatures, or security policies. This activity is indicative of defense evasion following the exploitation of CVE-2026-88771 or CVE-2026-88772 to suppress security alerting on follow-on malicious activity.
Detects high-frequency restarts, HA failovers, or process crashes (e.g., nsppe, nsaaad) on Citrix NetScaler appliances. This behavior is indicative of potential denial-of-service exploitation, such as the CVE-2026-88772 DTLS memory-overflow vulnerability.
Detects anomalous lateral movement behavior where a successful NetScaler VPN or gateway session is followed immediately by internal remote service logons (RDP, SSH, WinRM) or network connections from the same source IP. This pattern is indicative of potential exploitation of Citrix NetScaler vulnerabilities (e.g., CVE-2026-88771, CVE-2026-88772) or credential abuse to move laterally into the internal environment.
Detects unauthorized access, reading, or downloading of sensitive NetScaler system files, including configuration files (ns.conf), licensing files, and cryptographic material (private keys/certificates). This activity often indicates post-exploitation reconnaissance, staging, or data theft attempts following initial access.
Detects techniques commonly used to dump Active Directory domain credentials by accessing the NTDS.dit database file. This includes the use of ntdsutil for IFM (Install From Media) operations, manual shadow copy creation using vssadmin or wmic to copy the ntds.dit file, direct access to shadow copy volumes containing sensitive database files, and the use of credential dumping tools like Impacket's secretsdump.
