Name:Windows Credentials from Password Stores Chrome Copied in TEMP Dir id:4d14c86d-fdee-4393-94da-238d2706902f version:1 date:2024-09-24 author:Teoderick Contreras, Splunk status:production type:TTP Description:The following analytic detects the copying of Chrome's Local State and Login Data files into temporary folders, a tactic often used by the Braodo stealer malware. These files contain encrypted user credentials, including saved passwords and login session details. The detection monitors for suspicious copying activity involving these specific Chrome files, particularly in temp directories where malware typically processes the stolen data. Identifying this behavior enables security teams to act quickly, preventing attackers from decrypting and exfiltrating sensitive browser credentials and mitigating the risk of unauthorized access.

how_to_implement:To successfully implement this search you need to be ingesting information on process that include the name of the process responsible for the changes from your endpoints into the `Endpoint` datamodel in the `Filesystem` node. In addition, confirm the latest CIM App 4.20 or higher is installed and the latest TA for the endpoint product. known_false_positives:unknown References: -https://x.com/suyog41/status/1825869470323056748 -https://g0njxa.medium.com/from-vietnam-to-united-states-malware-fraud-and-dropshipping-98b7a7b2c36d drilldown_searches: name:'View the detection results for "$dest$"' search:'%original_detection_search% | search dest = "$dest$"' earliest_offset:'$info_min_time$' latest_offset:'$info_max_time$' name:'View risk events for the last 7 days for "$dest$"' search:'| from datamodel Risk.All_Risk | search normalized_risk_object IN ("$dest$") starthoursago=168 | stats count min(_time) as firstTime max(_time) as lastTime values(search_name) as "Search Name" values(risk_message) as "Risk Message" values(analyticstories) as "Analytic Stories" values(annotations._all) as "Annotations" values(annotations.mitre_attack.mitre_tactic) as "ATT&CK Tactics" by normalized_risk_object | `security_content_ctime(firstTime)` | `security_content_ctime(lastTime)`' earliest_offset:'$info_min_time$' latest_offset:'$info_max_time$' tags: analytic_story: - 'Braodo Stealer' asset_type:Endpoint confidence:80 impact:80 message:Chrome Password Store File [$file_name$] was copied in %temp% folder on [$dest$]. mitre_attack_id: - 'T1555.003' - 'T1555' observable: name:'dest' type:'Hostname' - role: - 'Victim' product: - 'Splunk Enterprise' - 'Splunk Enterprise Security' - 'Splunk Cloud' required_fields: - '_time' - 'Filesystem.dest' - 'Filesystem.file_create_time' - 'Filesystem.file_name' - 'Filesystem.user' - 'Filesystem.file_path' risk_score:64 security_domain:endpoint
