description: The following analytic identifies the use of AdvancedRun.exe. AdvancedRun.exe
|
|
has similar capabilities as other remote programs like psexec. AdvancedRun may also
|
|
ingest a configuration file with all settings defined and perform its activity.
|
|
The analytic is written in a way to identify a renamed binary and also the common
|
|
command-line arguments.
|
|
data_source:
|
|
- Sysmon Event ID 1
|
|
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
|
|
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where (Processes.process_name=advancedrun.exe
|
|
OR Processes.original_file_name=advancedrun.exe) Processes.process IN ("*EXEFilename*","*/cfg*","*RunAs*",
|
|
"*WindowState*") by Processes.dest Processes.user Processes.parent_process_name
|
|
Processes.process_name Processes.process Processes.original_file_name Processes.process_id
|
|
Processes.parent_process_id | `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)` | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`|
|
|
`security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `windows_nirsoft_advancedrun_filter`'
|
|
how_to_implement: The detection is based on data that originates from Endpoint Detection
|
|
and Response (EDR) agents. These agents are designed to provide security-related
|
|
telemetry from the endpoints where the agent is installed. To implement this search,
|
|
you must ingest logs that contain the process GUID, process name, and parent process.
|
|
Additionally, you must ingest complete command-line executions. These logs must
|
|
be processed using the appropriate Splunk Technology Add-ons that are specific to
|
|
the EDR product. The logs must also be mapped to the `Processes` node of the `Endpoint`
|
|
data model. Use the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) to normalize the field
|
|
names and speed up the data modeling process.
|
|
known_false_positives: False positives should be limited as it is specific to AdvancedRun.
|
|
Filter as needed based on legitimate usage.
