description: This analytic is to looks for file creation of sudoers.tmp file cause
|
|
by editing /etc/sudoers using visudo or editor in linux platform. This technique
|
|
may abuse by adversaries, malware author and red teamers to gain elevated privilege
|
|
to targeted or compromised host. /etc/sudoers file controls who can run what commands
|
|
as what users on what machines and can also control special things such as whether
|
|
you need a password for particular commands. The file is composed of aliases (basically
|
|
variables) and user specifications (which control who can run what).

data_source:
|
|
- Sysmon Event ID 11
|
|
search:
|
|
selection1:
|
|
TargetFilename: '*sudoers.tmp*'
|
|
condition: selection1
|
|
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 execute this command.
|
|
Please update the filter macros to remove false positives.
