description: This analytic looks for the presence of suspicious commandline parameters
|
|
typically present when using Impacket tools. Impacket is a collection of python
|
|
classes meant to be used with Microsoft network protocols. There are multiple scripts
|
|
that leverage impacket libraries like `wmiexec.py`, `smbexec.py`, `dcomexec.py`
|
|
and `atexec.py` used to execute commands on remote endpoints. By default, these
|
|
scripts leverage administrative shares and hardcoded parameters that can be used
|
|
as a signature to detect its use. Red Teams and adversaries alike may leverage Impackets
|
|
tools for lateral movement and remote code execution.

data_source:
|
|
- Sysmon Event ID 1
|
|
search:
|
|
selection1:
|
|
CommandLine:
|
|
- '*/c* \\\\127.0.0.1\\*'
|
|
- '*/c* 2>&1'
|
|
condition: (selection1)
|
|
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.
|
|
known_false_positives: Although uncommon, Administrators may leverage Impackets tools
|
|
to start a process on remote systems for system administration or automation use
|
|
cases.
