+description: The following hunting analytic identifies renamed instances of rundll32.exe executing.
   rundll32.exe is natively found in C:\Windows\system32 and C:\Windows\syswow64. During
   investigation, validate it is the legitimate rundll32.exe executing and what script
   content it is loading. This query relies on the original filename or internal name

+description: 'The following analytic identifies `pkexec` spawning with no command-line arguments. A vulnerability in Polkit''s pkexec component identified as CVE-2021-4034 (PwnKit) which is present in the default configuration of all major Linux distributions and can be exploited to gain full root privileges on the system.'

+  To successfully implement this search you need to be ingesting information on process that include the name of the process responsible for the changes from your endpoints into the `Endpoint` datamodel in the `Processes` node. In addition, confirm the latest CIM App 4.20 or higher is installed and the latest TA for the endpoint product.'
