Download CSV| Type | Name | Severity | Module | Data source / event | ATT&CK |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BIOC | Bypassing Windows UAC using sysprep Attackers may use the sysprep.exe built-in Windows tools to bypass Windows UAC. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Process execution | Privilege Escalation |
| BIOC | Command enumeration via sudo The 'sudo -l' command was executed to enumerate commands that can be executed by a user. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Process execution | Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics BIOC | Creation or modification of the default command executed when opening an application Creation or modification of these registry keys can cause the execution of the specified programs, bypassing UAC. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Privilege Escalation |
| BIOC | Discovery of files with setgid or setuid bits Attackers may try to locate files with setgid or setuid bits set to escalate privileges. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Process execution | Privilege Escalation |
| BIOC | Manipulation of MMC Registry configuration Creation or modification of these Microsoft Management Console related entries can cause the execution of the specified programs, bypassing UAC. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Registry | Privilege Escalation |
| BIOC | Setuid on file Setting user identification on an executable file causes it to run with the privileges of the owning user. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Process execution | Privilege Escalation |
| BIOC | Sudoers discovery Attackers may enumerate the sudoers file or use the 'sudo -l' command to discover user privileges. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Process execution | Discovery, Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics BIOC | Suspicious process executed with a high integrity level A suspicious process was spawned with a High or System integrity level, which is higher than its parent process. This may indicate malicious privilege escalation. | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent | Privilege Escalation |
| Analytics BIOC | Tampering with the Windows User Account Controls (UAC) configuration EnableLUA specifies whether Windows User Account Controls (UAC) notifies the user when programs try to modify the computer. UAC was formerly known as Limited User Account (LUA). | Informational | Platform Analytics | XDR Agent with eXtended Threat Hunting (XTH) | Defense Evasion |
| BIOC | Unusual process spawned by changepk.exe Attackers may use the changepk.exe built-in Windows tool to bypass UAC using an unusual initiator. | Informational | Platform Analytics | Process execution | Privilege Escalation |
