description: The following analytic identifies the Microsoft Software Licensing User
Interface Tool, `slui.exe`, elevating access using the `-verb runas` function. This
particular bypass utilizes a registry key/value. Identified by two sources, the
registry keys are `HKCU\Software\Classes\exefile\shell` and `HKCU\Software\Classes\launcher.Systemsettings\Shell\open\command`.
To simulate this behavior, multiple POC are available. The analytic identifies the
use of `runas` by `slui.exe`.
data_source:
- Sysmon Event ID 1
search:
selection1:
Image|endswith: slui.exe
selection2:
CommandLine: '*runas*'
selection3:
CommandLine: '*-verb*'
condition: selection1 and selection2 and selection3
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.
known_false_positives: Limited false positives should be present as this is not commonly
used by legitimate applications.
