Samirbous 17c3be2689 [New] Container Runtime CLI Execution with Suspicious Arguments (#6009)
* [New] Container Runtime CLI Execution with Suspicious Arguments

Detects ctr, crictl, or nerdctl on Linux when invoked with arguments associated with container lifecycle abuse, image staging, task or snapshot access, privileged or host-namespace flags, bind mounts, or CRI namespace targeting—patterns common during post-compromise container administration and breakout attempts.

rules/

Rules within this folder are organized by solution or platform. The structure is flattened out, because nested file hierarchies are hard to navigate and find what you're looking for. Each directory contains several .toml files, and the primary ATT&CK tactic is included in the file name when it's relevant (i.e. windows/execution_via_compiled_html_file.toml)

folder description
. Root directory where rules are stored
apm/ Rules that use Application Performance Monitoring (APM) data sources
cross-platform/ Rules that apply to multiple platforms, such as Windows and Linux
integrations/ Rules organized by Fleet integration

macos/ Rules for macOS
ml/ Rules that use machine learning jobs (ML)
network/ Rules that use network data sources
promotions/ Rules that promote external alerts into detection engine alerts
windows/ Rules for the Microsoft Windows Operating System

Integration specific rules are stored in the integrations/ directory:
