Name:Trickbot Named Pipe id:1804b0a4-a682-11eb-8f68-acde48001122 version:11 date:None author:Teoderick Contreras, Splunk status:production type:TTP Description:The following analytic detects the creation or connection to a named pipe associated with Trickbot malware. It leverages Sysmon EventCodes 17 and 18 to identify named pipes with the pattern "\\pipe\\*lacesomepipe". This activity is significant as Trickbot uses named pipes for communication with its command and control (C2) servers, facilitating data exfiltration and command execution. If confirmed malicious, this behavior could allow attackers to maintain persistence, execute arbitrary commands, and exfiltrate sensitive information from the compromised system. Data_source:
-Sysmon EventID 17
-Sysmon EventID 18
search:`sysmon` EventCode IN (17,18) PipeName="\\pipe\\*lacesomepipe" | stats min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime count by dest dvc pipe_name process_exec process_guid process_id process_name process_path signature signature_id user_id vendor_product Image PipeName | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)` | `trickbot_named_pipe_filter`
how_to_implement:To successfully implement this search, you need to be ingesting logs with the process name and pipename from your endpoints. If you are using Sysmon, you must have at least version 6.0.4 of the Sysmon TA. . known_false_positives:No false positives have been identified at this time.
