๐ Key Highlights ๐ Expanded macOS AppleScript and osascript coverage ๐ Added three new macOS analytics that identify osascript executing interactive shells, JavaScript for Automation code using the Objective-C bridge, and long-lived network connections. This improves visibility into script-based execution, remote access, command-and-control activity, and post-exploitation behavior on macOS endpoints. ๐ช Windows ClickFix and LOLBin detection coverage ๐ช Added four new Windows analytics covering remote connections through finger.exe, command execution through for /f loops, JavaScript execution by node.exe from unusual directories, and processes accessing the IronLanguages repository on GitHub. Together, these detections improve visibility into ClickFix-related execution chains, payload retrieval, scripting abuse, and the use of trusted utilities for malicious activity. ๐ Improved credential-access and process-injection detection ๐ Updated multiple detections leveraging the process access data source, covering LSASS access and termination, credential dumping, Winlogon token manipulation, Rubeus ticket export activity, handle duplication, and process injection. These changes improve analytic consistency, investigation context, and visibility into credential-access and defense-evasion techniques. ๐ ๏ธ Detection quality and metadata improvements ๐ ๏ธ Updated multiple analytics across application, endpoint, network, and web content. Changes include improved SPL logic, additional threat objects and references, better event context, and tuning intended to improve detection fidelity and reduce noise. Updates include coverage for ESXi tampering and VM termination, event-log clearing, Kerberos coercion, internal network scanning, and suspicious HTTP activity.
