description: GNU Octave is a high-level programming language primarily intended for
|
|
scientific computing and numerical computation. Octave helps in solving linear and
|
|
nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments using
|
|
a language that is mostly compatible with MATLAB. If sudo right is given to the
|
|
application for the user, then the user can run system commands as root and possibly
|
|
get a root shell.

CommandLine: '*--eval*'

|
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.
