Detects the execution of the `iwpriv` utility by an unprivileged user targeting subcommands that are vulnerable to Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) in certain MediaTek Wi-Fi drivers. The exploitation of these vulnerabilities is demonstrated to be possible by unprivileged users, making the execution of kernel-level configuration tools like `iwpriv` by non-root users a highly suspicious activity.

Detects the legitimate Windows utility MSBuild.exe initiating any outbound network connections. MSBuild.exe is a software build tool and should not typically make network connections outside of development environments. This behavior is highly indicative of process hollowing, where malware injects itself into the MSBuild process to evade defenses, as seen in recent BlindEagle campaigns.
