Python Path Configuration File Creation - Linux

Detects creation of a Python path configuration file (.pth) in Python library folders, which can be maliciously abused for code execution and persistence. Modules referenced by these files are run at every Python startup (v3.5+), regardless of whether the module is imported by the calling script. Default paths are '\lib\site-packages\*.pth' (Windows) and '/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/*.pth' (Unix and macOS).

WDAC Policy File Creation In CodeIntegrity Folder

Attackers can craft a custom Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) policy that blocks Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) components while allowing their own malicious code. The policy is placed in the privileged Windows Code Integrity folder (C:\Windows\System32\CodeIntegrity\). Upon reboot, the policy prevents EDR drivers from loading, effectively bypassing security measures and may further enable undetected lateral movement within an Active Directory environment.

Invocation Of Crypto-Classes From The "Cryptography" PowerShell Namespace

Detects the invocation of PowerShell commands with references to classes from the "System.Security.Cryptography" namespace. The PowerShell namespace "System.Security.Cryptography" provides classes for on-the-fly encryption and decryption. These can be used for example in decrypting malicious payload for defense evasion.

Regsvr32.EXE Calling of DllRegisterServer Export Function Implicitly

Detects execution of regsvr32 with the silent flag and no other flags on a DLL located in an uncommon or potentially suspicious location. When Regsvr32 is called in such a way, it implicitly calls the DLL export function 'DllRegisterServer'.

Registry Set With Crypto-Classes From The "Cryptography" PowerShell Namespace

Detects the setting of a registry inside the "\Shell\Open\Command" value with PowerShell classes from the "System.Security.Cryptography" namespace. The PowerShell namespace "System.Security.Cryptography" provides classes for on-the-fly encryption and decryption. These can be used for example in decrypting malicious payload for defense evasion.
