|
description: The following analytic identifies microsoft.workflow.compiler.exe usage.
|
|
microsoft.workflow.compiler.exe is natively found in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319
|
|
and is rarely utilized. When investigating, identify the executed code on disk and
|
|
review. It is not a commonly used process by many applications.
|
|
data_source:
|
|
- Sysmon Event ID 1
|
|
search:
|
|
selection1:
|
|
OriginalFileName: Microsoft.Workflow.Compiler.exe
|
|
selection2:
|
|
Image|endswith: microsoft.workflow.compiler.exe
|
|
condition: (selection1 or selection2)
|
|
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: Although unlikely, limited instances have been identified coming
|
|
from native Microsoft utilities similar to SCCM.
