description: This analytic is to detect a possible abuse of verclsid to execute malicious
file through generate CLSID. This process is a normal application of windows to
verify the CLSID COM object before it is instantiated by Windows Explorer. This
hunting query can be a good pivot point to analyze what is he CLSID or COM object
pointing too to check if it is a valid application or not.
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` values(Processes.process) as process
values(Processes.parent_process) as parent_process values(Processes.process_id)
as process_id count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes
where `process_verclsid` AND Processes.process="*/S*" Processes.process="*/C*" AND Processes.process="*{*"
AND Processes.process="*}*" by Processes.process_name Processes.original_file_name
Processes.dest Processes.user Processes.parent_process_name Processes.parent_process
| `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)` | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
| `verclsid_clsid_execution_filter`'
how_to_implement: 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.
known_false_positives: windows can used this application for its normal COM object
validation.
