name: Linux Deletion Of Services

author: Teoderick Contreras, Splunk
status: production
type: TTP
description: This analytic is to detect a deletion of services in a linux machine.
attacker may delete or modify services to impair some security features or act as
defense evasion in a compromised linux machine. This TTP can be also a good indicator
of a malware trying to wipe or delete several files in a compromised host as part
of its destructive payload like what acidrain malware does in linux or router machines.
This detection can be a good pivot to check what process and user tries to delete
this type of files which is not so common and need further investigation.
data_source:
- Sysmon Event ID 11
search:
selection1:
TargetFilename:
- /etc/systemd/*
- /usr/lib/systemd/*
Filesystem.action: deleted
selection2:
TargetFilename: '*.service'
condition: selection1 and selection2
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search, you need to be ingesting
logs with the process name, parent process, and command-line executions from your
endpoints. If you are using Sysmon, you can use the Add-on for Linux Sysmon from
Splunkbase.
known_false_positives: Administrator or network operator can execute this command.
Please update the filter macros to remove false positives.
