description: The c89 and cc commands compile, assemble, and link-edit C programs;
the cxx or c++ command does the same for C++ programs. The c89 command should be
used when compiling C programs that are written according to Standard C. If sudo
right is given to c89 application for the user, then the user can run system commands
as root and possibly get a root shell.
data_source:
- Sysmon Event ID 1
search:
selection1:
CommandLine: '*-wrapper*'
selection2:
CommandLine: '*c89*'
selection3:
CommandLine: '*sudo*'
condition: selection1 and selection2 and selection3
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.
