description: this search is designed to detect potential malicious wermgr.exe process
|
|
that drops or create executable file. Since wermgr.exe is an application trigger
|
|
when error encountered in a process, it is really un ussual to this process to drop
|
|
executable file. This technique is commonly seen in trickbot malware where it injects
|
|
it code to this process to execute it malicious behavior like downloading other
|
|
payload
|
|
data_source:
|
|
- Sysmon Event ID 1
|
|
search: '`sysmon` EventCode=11 process_name = "wermgr.exe" TargetFilename = "*.exe"
|
|
| stats min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime count by Image TargetFilename
|
|
process_name dest EventCode ProcessId | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
|
|
| `wermgr_process_create_executable_file_filter`'
|
|
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. If you are using Sysmon, you must have at least version 6.0.4 of the
|
|
Sysmon TA. Tune and filter known instances of wermgr.exe may be used.
