description: The following analytic identifies a modification to the Transcodedwallpaper file in the wallpaper theme directory
|
|
to change the wallpaper of the host machine. This technique was seen in adversaries attempting to deface
|
|
or change the desktop wallpaper of the targeted host. During our testing, the common process that affects or changes the wallpaper
|
|
if a user changes it via desktop personalized setting is explorer.exe.
|
|
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count FROM datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where Processes.process_path !="*\\Windows\\Explorer.EXE"
|
|
by _time span=1h Processes.process_id Processes.process_name Processes.process Processes.dest Processes.process_guid Processes.original_file_name
|
|
| `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)`
|
|
|rename process_guid as proc_guid
|
|
| join proc_guid, _time [
|
|
| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count FROM datamodel=Endpoint.Filesystem
|
|
where Filesystem.file_path = "*\\AppData\\Roaming\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Themes\\TranscodedWallpaper"
|
|
by _time span=1h Filesystem.dest Filesystem.file_create_time Filesystem.file_name Filesystem.file_path Filesystem.process_guid
|
|
| `drop_dm_object_name(Filesystem)`
|
|
|rename process_guid as proc_guid
|
|
| fields file_name file_path process_name process_path process dest file_create_time _time proc_guid]
|
|
| `windows_defacement_modify_transcodedwallpaper_file_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 `Filesystem` 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: 3rd part software application can change the wallpaper. Filter is needed.
