Exfiltration via SMTP Network Evasion
Exfiltration via SMTP is a technique where attackers leverage the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to exfiltrate data. This method involves sending stolen data, such as sensitive files or system information, via email to an attacker-controlled email account. By using email traffic, attackers can often bypass traditional network monitoring solutions since SMTP traffic is usually deemed legitimate.

Removing Commands from SELinux Audit Logs Anti-Forensic
SELinux audit logs record all executed commands and policy enforcement actions, including commands like /bin/web
, setenforce
, mount
, and /bin/rm
. Using sed -i
, attackers delete specific entries from these logs that could reveal the commands they executed. This manipulation ensures that traces of their activity, such as disabling security policies or deleting evidence, are erased from …
WMI Event Subscriptions Sandbox Evasion
Adversaries may leverage WMI event subscriptions to evade detection by triggering malicious actions only under specific conditions that are unlikely to occur in a sandboxed environment. For instance, a threat actor might configure an event subscription to monitor file system, network, or logon activity, ensuring that their second-stage payload is only downloaded and executed when a particular event suggests real …
Indirect Memory Writing Antivirus/EDR Evasion
In code-injection scenarios, for example, when a loader places a payload into memory for execution, many antimalware engines detect or block malicious activity at the moment the payload bytes are written into the newly allocated executable memory region. Attackers may try to evade such detection by avoiding direct writes to new memory region and instead relying on other, legitimate Windows …
