description: This analytic looks for suspicious setcap utility execution to enable
|
|
SUID bit. This allows a user to temporarily gain root access, usually in order to
|
|
run a program. For example, only the root account is allowed to change the password
|
|
information contained in the password database; If the SUID bit appears as an s,
|
|
the file's owner also has execute permission to the file; if it appears as an S,
|
|
the file's owner does not have execute permission. The second specialty permission
|
|
is the SGID, or set group id bit. It is similar to the SUID bit, except it can temporarily
|
|
change group membership, usually to execute a program. The SGID bit is set if an
|
|
s or an S appears in the group section of permissions.

|
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.
