Sigma Rules
271 rules found
WFP Filter Added via Registry
Detects registry modifications that add Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) filters, which may be used to block security tools and EDR agents from reporting events.
Windows Vulnerable Driver Blocklist Disabled
Detects when the Windows Vulnerable Driver Blocklist is set to disabled. This setting is crucial for preventing the loading of known vulnerable drivers, and its modification may indicate an attempt to bypass security controls. It is often targeted by threat actors to facilitate the installation of malicious or vulnerable drivers, particularly in scenarios involving Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) bypass techniques. This rule applies to systems that support the Vulnerable Driver Blocklist feature, including Windows 10 version 1903 and later, and Windows Server 2022 and later. Note that this change will require a reboot to take effect, and this rule only detects the registry modification action.

Linux Suspicious Child Process from Node.js - React2Shell
Detects suspicious child processes spawned from Node.js server processes on Linux systems, potentially indicating remote code execution exploitation such as CVE-2025-55182 (React2Shell). This rule particularly looks for exploitation of vulnerability on Node.js Servers where attackers abuse Node.js child_process module to execute arbitrary system commands. When execSync() or exec() is used, the command line often includes a shell invocation followed by suspicious commands or scripts (e.g., /bin/sh -c <malicious-command>). For other methods, the Image field will show the spawned process directly.
Windows Suspicious Child Process from Node.js - React2Shell
Detects suspicious child processes started by Node.js server processes on Windows, which may indicate exploitation of vulnerabilities like CVE-2025-55182 (React2Shell). Attackers can abuse the Node.js 'child_process' module to run system commands or scripts using methods such as spawn(), exec(), execFile(), fork(), or execSync(). If execSync() or exec() is used in the exploit, the command line often shows a shell (e.g., cmd.exe /d /s /c ...) running a suspicious command unless other shells are explicitly invoked. For other methods, the spawned process appears directly in the Image field unless a shell is explicitly used.
Commvault QLogin with PublicSharingUser and GUID Password (CVE-2025-57788)
Detects a qlogin.exe command attempting to authenticate as the internal `_+_PublicSharingUser_` using a GUID as the password. This could be an indicator of an attacker exploiting CVE-2025-57788 to gain initial access using leaked credentials.
