description: This detection is to identify the abuse the Windows SC.exe to execute
|
|
malicious commands or payloads via PowerShell.

search: ' `wineventlog_system` EventCode=7045 | eval l_Service_File_Name=lower(Service_File_Name)
|
|
| regex l_Service_File_Name="powershell[.\s]|powershell_ise[.\s]|pwsh[.\s]|psexec[.\s]"
|
|
| regex l_Service_File_Name="-nop[rofile\s]+|-w[indowstyle]*\s+hid[den]*|-noe[xit\s]+|-enc[odedcommand\s]+"
|
|
| stats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime by EventCode Service_File_Name
|
|
Service_Name Service_Start_Type Service_Type Service_Account user | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
|
|
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `malicious_powershell_executed_as_a_service_filter`'
|
|
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this search, you need to be ingesting
|
|
Windows System logs with the Service name, Service File Name Service Start type,
|
|
and Service Type from your endpoints.
|
|
known_false_positives: Creating a hidden powershell service is rare and could key
|
|
off of those instances.
