name: Linux Kernel Module Enumeration
id: 6df99886-0e04-4c11-8b88-325747419278
version: 1

author: Michael Haag, Splunk
status: production
type: Anomaly
description: The following analytic identifies the process kmod being utilized to
list kernel modules in use. Typically, this is not seen as malicious, however it
may be a precurser to the use of insmod to install a module.
data_source:
- Sysmon Event ID 1
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time)
as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes where Processes.process_name=kmod
Processes.process IN ("*lsmod*", "*list*") 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_kernel_module_enumeration_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 are present based on automated tooling or system
administrative usage. Filter as needed.
