description: The following analytic identifies suspicious PowerShell script execution
|
|
via EventCode 4104 that is processing compressed stream data. This is typically
|
|
found in obfuscated PowerShell or PowerShell executing embedded .NET or binary files
|
|
that are stream flattened and will be deflated durnig execution. During triage,
|
|
review parallel processes within the same timeframe. Review the full script block
|
|
to identify other related artifacts.
|
|
data_source:
|
|
- Powershell 4104
|
|
search: '`powershell` EventCode=4104 ScriptBlockText = "*IO.Compression.*" OR ScriptBlockText
|
|
= "*IO.StreamReader*" OR ScriptBlockText = "*]::Decompress*" | stats count min(_time)
|
|
as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime by EventCode ScriptBlockText Computer UserID
|
|
| `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `powershell_processing_stream_of_data_filter`'
|
|
how_to_implement: To successfully implement this analytic, you will need to enable
|
|
PowerShell Script Block Logging on some or all endpoints. Additional setup here
|
|
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/UBA/5.0.4.1/GetDataIn/AddPowerShell#Configure_module_logging_for_PowerShell.
|
|
known_false_positives: powershell may used this function to process compressed data.
