|
|
description: The following analytic identifies base64 being decoded and passed to a Linux shell.
|
|
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
|
|
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where Processes.process IN ("*base64 -d*","*base64 --decode*") AND Processes.process="*|*" `linux_shells`
|
|
by Processes.dest Processes.user Processes.parent_process_name Processes.process_name
|
|
Processes.process Processes.process_id Processes.parent_process_id
|
|
| `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)`
|
|
| `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
|
|
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
|
|
| `linux_decode_base64_to_shell_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: False positives may be present based on legitimate software being utilized. Filter as needed.
