YARA Signatures


MalwareBazaar uses YARA rules from several public and non-public repositories, such as YARAhub and Malpedia. Those are being matched against malware samples uploaded to MalwareBazaar as well as against any suspicious process dumps they may create. Please note that only results from TLP:CLEAR rules are being displayed.

Rule name:botnet_plaintext_c2
Author:cip
Description:Attempts to match at least some of the strings used in some botnet variants which use plaintext communication protocols.
Rule name:malware_shellcode_hash
Author:JPCERT/CC Incident Response Group
Description:detect shellcode api hash value
Rule name:observer
Author:Michelle Khalil
Description:This rule detects unpacked observer malware samples.
Rule name:pe_detect_tls_callbacks
Rule name:SUSP_XORed_Mozilla_Oct19
Author:Florian Roth
Description:Detects suspicious single byte XORed keyword 'Mozilla/5.0' - it uses yara's XOR modifier and therefore cannot print the XOR key. You can use the CyberChef recipe linked in the reference field to brute force the used key.
Reference:https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/#recipe=XOR_Brute_Force()
Rule name:SUSP_XORed_Mozilla_RID2DB4
Author:Florian Roth
Description:Detects suspicious XORed keyword - Mozilla/5.0
Reference:Internal Research
Rule name:Sus_Obf_Enc_Spoof_Hide_PE
Author:XiAnzheng
Description:Check for Overlay, Obfuscating, Encrypting, Spoofing, Hiding, or Entropy Technique(can create FP)
Rule name:sus_pe_free_without_allocation
Author:Maxime THIEBAUT (@0xThiebaut)
Description:Detects an executable importing functions to free memory without importing allocation functions, often indicative of dynamic import resolution
