description: This analytic is to detect a shred process to overwrite a files in a linux machine.
Shred Linux application is designed to overwrite file to hide its contents or make the deleted file un-recoverable.
Weve seen this technique in industroyer2 malware that tries to wipe energy facilities of targeted sector as part of its destructive attack.
It might be some normal user may use this command for valid purposes but it is recommended to check what files, disk or folder it tries to shred
that might be good pivot for incident response in this type of destructive malware.
search: '| tstats `security_content_summariesonly` count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime from datamodel=Endpoint.Processes
where Processes.process_name =shred AND Processes.process IN ("*-n*", "*-u*", "*-z*", "*-s*")
by Processes.parent_process_name Processes.process_name Processes.process Processes.process_id Processes.parent_process_id Processes.process_guid Processes.dest Processes.user
| `drop_dm_object_name(Processes)`
| `security_content_ctime(firstTime)`
| `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`
| `linux_shred_overwrite_command_filter`'
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. If you are using Sysmon, you can use the Add-on for Linux Sysmon from
Splunkbase.
known_false_positives: Administrator or network operator can use this application
for automation purposes. Please update the filter macros to remove false positives.
