type: Anomaly
datamodel:
- Endpoint
description: The apt-get is a command line tool for interacting with the Advanced Package Tool (APT) library (a package management system for Linux distributions).
It allows you to search for, install, manage, update, and remove software. The tool does not build software from the source code.
If sudo right is given to the tool for user, then the user can run system commands as root and possibly get a root shell.
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where Processes.process="*apt-get*" AND Processes.process="*APT::Update::Pre-Invoke::*" AND Processes.process="*sudo*" by Processes.dest Processes.user Processes.parent_process_name
Processes.process_name Processes.process Processes.process_id Processes.parent_process_id
Processes.process_guid | `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)` | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `linux_apt_get_privilege_escalation_filter`'
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 into the Endpoint datamodel. If you are using Sysmon, you can use the Add-on for Linux Sysmon from
Splunkbase.
known_false_positives: False positives may be present, filter as needed.
