Self-Referential Payload Extraction via PowerShell
Detects PowerShell scripts that read file content, extract an embedded payload via regex matching, and write the result to disk for further execution. This self-referential technique allows an attacker to embed a full implant within a single carrier file and extract it at runtime, avoiding external network-based downloads entirely. The payload is typically delimited by sentinel markers (e.g. #PYTHON_START / #PYTHON_END) and dropped to a persistent location.
12.05.2026
Self-Referential Payload Extraction via PowerShell Command Line
Detects PowerShell one-liners that read a file content, extract an embedded payload via regex matching, and write the result to disk for further execution. This self-referential technique allows an attacker to embed a full implant within a single carrier file and extract it at runtime, avoiding external network-based downloads entirely. The payload is typically delimited by sentinel markers (e.g. #PYTHON_START / #PYTHON_END) and dropped to a persistent location.
12.05.2026
PowerShell Dynamic Module Command Invocation via Index Access - PsScript
Detects PowerShell scripts that dynamically invoke commands from the Microsoft.PowerShell.Utility module using index access on the ExportedCommands collection. Threat actors may use this technique to bypass detection mechanisms that look for specific command names, as the actual commands being invoked are determined at runtime and may not be explicitly mentioned in the script.

PowerShell Dynamic Module Command Invocation via Index Access
Detects PowerShell scripts that dynamically invoke commands from the Microsoft.PowerShell.Utility module using index access on the ExportedCommands collection. Threat actors may use this technique to bypass detection mechanisms that look for specific command names, as the actual commands being invoked are determined at runtime and may not be explicitly mentioned in the script.
11.05.2026
HH.EXE CHM Decompilation With Non-CHM File Extension
Detects execution of hh.exe with the -decompile (-d) flag where no .chm extension is present in the command line. Threat actors disguise CHM files with alternative extensions (e.g. .doc, .pdf) to evade detection, then pass them to hh.exe for decompilation and payload extraction.
08.05.2026
HH.EXE CHM File Decompilation
Detects execution of hh.exe with the -decompile (-d) flag to extract contents of a CHM file. Threat actors abuse this technique to drop and execute malicious payloads embedded in CHM files.
08.05.2026
Net User Logon Time Restriction and Account Lockout
Detects usage of net user command to set logon time restrictions and disable accounts, a technique used by wipers to prevent user logins and lock out accounts, hindering recovery efforts.
04.05.2026
Network Interface Disabled Via Netsh
Detects netsh being used to disable a network interface. Threat actors abuse this to cut off network connectivity and prevent remote recovery or intervention during destructive attacks.
04.05.2026
Winlogon CachedLogonsCount Registry Manipulation Via CLI
Detects command-line manipulation of the CachedLogonsCount registry value under the Winlogon key through commandline. This value controls how many domain credential sets Windows caches locally. Setting it to zero disables caching entirely, forcing direct domain controller authentication. Threat actors may abuse this to prevent offline authentication or to hinder forensic credential recovery post-compromise.
04.05.2026
Robocopy Mirror Directory Wipe
Detects robocopy invoked with /MIR and /B flags, a technique commonly abused by wipers to overwrite entire directory trees by mirroring an empty source folder in backup mode, permanently destroying all file contents.
04.05.2026
Diskpart Volume Clean All Execution
Detects the execution of diskpart's "clean all" command, which permanently destroys all data on a disk volume by overwriting every sector with zeros. Threat actors abuse this for data destruction and wiper attacks.
04.05.2026
Winlogon CachedLogonsCount Registry Value Set To Zero
Detects registry set events where the CachedLogonsCount value under the Winlogon key is set to zero. This disables Windows cached domain credentials, forcing direct domain controller authentication. Threat actors may abuse this to prevent offline authentication or to hinder forensic credential recovery post-compromise.
04.05.2026
Free Disk Space Enumeration Via Fsutil
Detects the use of fsutil to enumerate free disk space on a volume. Threat actors may abuse this to determine available space before carrying out further actions such as data destruction or exfiltration.
04.05.2026
Large File Creation Via Fsutil
Detects fsutil being used to create a new file with a suspiciously large size. Threat actors abuse this technique to fill all available disk space, exhausting the filesystem and preventing the OS from writing logs, recovery artifacts, or any new data.
04.05.2026
Kubernetes Potential Enumeration Activity
Detects potential Kubernetes enumeration or attack activity via the audit log. This includes the execution of common shells, utilities, or specialized tools like 'Rakkess' (access_matrix) and 'TruffleHog' via Kubernetes API requests. Attackers use these methods to perform reconnaissance (enumeration), secret harvesting, or execute code (exec) within a cluster.
28.04.2026
Google Workspace Out Of Domain Email Forwarding
Detects automatic email forwarding to external domains in Google Workspace, which may indicate data leakage or misuse.
28.04.2026
Google Workspace Government Attack Warning
Detects a login attempt in Google Workspace flagged as a potential attack by a government-backed threat actor
28.04.2026
Suspicious Login Activity Classified By Google
Detects Google Workspace login activity that's classified as suspicious by Google.
28.04.2026
Cisco Dot1x Disabled
Detects the manual disablement of IEEE 802.1X (dot1x) on a Cisco network device interface. Disabling dot1x bypasses Network Access Control (NAC) mechanisms, potentially allowing unauthorized devices to gain access to the internal network. This activity is a common technique used by attackers or malicious insiders to establish persistence or perform lateral movement via rogue devices.
28.04.2026
Potential Exploitation of CVE-2025-5054 or CVE-2025-4598
Detects attempts of an attacker to enable core dumps for set-user-ID (SUID) processes by modifying the system file /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable, typically by setting its value to 1 or 2. Enabling this feature allows memory dumps (core dumps) of SUID processes, which usually run with elevated privileges. These dumps may contain sensitive information such as passwords, cryptographic keys or other secrets. CVE-2025-5054: Information leak via core dumps from SUID binaries using apport. CVE-2025-4598: Information disclosure in systemd-coredump due to insecure handling of SUID process memory dumps.
28.04.2026
Potential CVE-2026-33829 Exploitation - Windows Snipping Tool Remote File Path URI
Detects potential exploitation of CVE-2026-33829, a vulnerability in the Windows Snipping Tool URI handler (ms-screensketch:). An attacker can abuse the 'filePath' parameter to supply a UNC path or HTTP URL, causing SnippingTool.exe to initiate a connection to a remote resource. When a UNC path is used (e.g. \\attacker.com\share), this triggers an outbound NTLM authentication attempt, allowing the attacker to capture or relay the victim's Net-NTLMv2 hash. HTTP-based paths may result in remote file loading or server-side request forgery (SSRF)-style access. The URI can be delivered via a malicious hyperlink, phishing email, or web page.
28.04.2026
Sensitive File Dump Via Print.EXE
Detects the abuse of the Print.exe utility for credential harvesting which involves using Print.Exe to copy sensitive files such as ntds.dit, SAM, SECURITY, or SYSTEM from the Windows directory in order to extract credentials, locally or remotely.
28.04.2026
PUA - Memory Dump Mount Via MemProcFS
Detects execution of MemProcFS a memory forensics tool with the '-device' parameter. MemProcFS mounts physical memory as a virtual file system, allowing direct access to process memory and system structures. Threat actors were seen abusing this utility to mount memory dumps and then extract sensitive information from processes like LSASS or extract registry hives to obtain credentials, LSA secrets, SAM data, and cached domain credentials. MemProcFS usage that is not part of authorized forensic analysis should be treated as suspicious and warrants further investigation.
27.04.2026
Service Startup Type Change Via Wmic.EXE
Detects changes to service startup type to 'disabled' or 'manual' using the WMIC command-line utility.
27.04.2026
Suspicious Task Scheduler XML Pattern Related with AtExec
Detects creation of scheduled tasks with XML patterns commonly associated with Atexec, a component of the NetExec tool that allows execution of commands via scheduled tasks for persistence and privilege escalation.
27.04.2026
Indirect Command Execution via SFTP ProxyCommand
Detects the use of SFTP.exe to execute commands indirectly via ProxyCommand parameter. Threat actors were seen leveraging this legitimate Windows binary to bypass security controls and execute arbitrary commands while evading detection.
27.04.2026
Suspicious Certificate Request Pattern via CertReq
Detects suspicious certificate request patterns that may indicate abuse of certreq.exe for privilege escalation or lateral movement.
27.04.2026
RedSun - Conhost.exe Spawned by TieringEngineService.exe
Detects two stages of the RedSun post-exploitation process chain that deliver a SYSTEM-level shell to the attacker's interactive session. Observed process chain services.exe → TieringEngineService.exe → conhost.exe (SYSTEM, CommandLine: bare path, no arguments) → cmd.exe / shell (SYSTEM, TerminalSessionId = attacker's session) Stage 1 — TieringEngineService.exe spawns argument-less conhost.exe: After winning the oplock + Cloud Files mount point race, the malicious TieringEngineService.exe (RedSun.exe copied to System32, started via CoCreateInstance / services.exe) detects it is NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM and calls LaunchConsoleInSessionId(). This opens \\.\pipe\REDSUN, reads the attacker's session ID, duplicates the SYSTEM token, re-stamps it with that session ID via SetTokenInformation(TokenSessionId), then calls CreateProcessAsUser to spawn conhost.exe with no arguments. Stage 2 — Shell spawned from rogue conhost.exe (EDR sources with GrandParentImage): The rogue SYSTEM conhost.exe spawns a shell (cmd.exe, PowerShell, etc.) as SYSTEM in the attacker's interactive session. On EDR sources that expose GrandParentImage, the full three-level chain (TieringEngineService.exe → conhost.exe → shell) can be matched directly. The legitimate TieringEngineService.exe is a headless COM server that is unlikely to spawn conhost.exe under normal conditions.
17.04.2026
RedSun - TieringEngineService.exe Staged in RS-Prefixed Temp Dir
Detects the creation of a file named TieringEngineService.exe inside a directory whose path contains the RS- prefix characteristic of RedSun's staging directory (e.g. %TEMP%\RS-{GUID}\TieringEngineService.exe). RedSun registers a Cloud Files sync root under this RS-prefixed path and drops a masqueraded placeholder there as part of its oplock-based AV bypass and privilege escalation chain. The RS-{GUID} directory name is generated by RedSun itself and has no legitimate system usage, making the combination of this path prefix and the TieringEngineService.exe filename a highly specific indicator of RedSun activity.
17.04.2026
RedSun - TieringEngineService.exe Detected as EICAR Test File
Detects Windows Defender (EventID 1119 - Remediation Action Failed) flagging TieringEngineService.exe dropped in a characteristic RS-{GUID} temporary directory, or the RedSun.exe process itself being present. This covers the staging pattern used by RedSun, a Cloud Files API and opportunistic lock (oplock) based AV bypass/privilege escalation tool. RedSun works as follows: 1. Registers a Cloud Files sync root and creates a Cloud Files placeholder for TieringEngineService.exe under %TEMP%\RS-{GUID}\ 2. The placeholder file carries EICAR test file content (Virus:DOS/EICAR_Test_File) to reliably trigger a Defender scan and remediation attempt 3. Requests a batch oplock (FSCTL_REQUEST_BATCH_OPLOCK) on the placeholder file 4. When Defender attempts to scan/quarantine the file, the oplock triggers - holding the file open 5. During the oplock break window, RedSun swaps the mount point (junction) to redirect \\?\C:\Windows\System32 to the attacker-controlled temp path 6. This races the AV/OS into executing the malicious TieringEngineService.exe with elevated privileges
