description: The following analytic detects the execution of known MailSniper PowerShell
|
|
functions on a machine. It leverages PowerShell logs (EventCode 4104) to identify
|
|
specific script block text associated with MailSniper activities. This behavior
|
|
is significant as MailSniper is often used by attackers to harvest sensitive emails
|
|
from compromised Exchange servers. If confirmed malicious, this activity could lead
|
|
to unauthorized access to sensitive email data, credential theft, and further compromise
|
|
of the email infrastructure.
|
|
data_source:
|
|
- Powershell Script Block Logging 4104
|
|
search: '`powershell` EventCode=4104 ScriptBlockText IN ("*Invoke-GlobalO365MailSearch*",
|
|
"*Invoke-GlobalMailSearch*", "*Invoke-SelfSearch*", "*Invoke-PasswordSprayOWA*",
|
|
"*Invoke-PasswordSprayEWS*","*Invoke-DomainHarvestOWA*", "*Invoke-UsernameHarvestOWA*","*Invoke-OpenInboxFinder*","*Invoke-InjectGEventAPI*","*Invoke-InjectGEvent*","*Invoke-SearchGmail*",
|
|
"*Invoke-MonitorCredSniper*", "*Invoke-AddGmailRule*","*Invoke-PasswordSprayEAS*","*Invoke-UsernameHarvestEAS*")

|
|
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search, you need to be ingesting
|
|
logs with the powershell logs from your endpoints. make sure you enable needed
|
|
registry to monitor this event.
