Hunt Hypothesis

This hunt targets adversaries leveraging C#-based red and black team tools that expose unique TypeLibGUID artifacts to evade standard signature-based detection. Proactively hunting for these GUIDs in Azure Sentinel is critical because they often indicate early-stage reconnaissance or post-exploitation tooling that may precede more severe lateral movement activities.

YARA Rule

rule HKTL_NET_GUID_SharpLoginPrompt {
    meta:
        description = "Detects c# red/black-team tools via typelibguid"
        reference = "https://github.com/shantanu561993/SharpLoginPrompt"
        author = "Arnim Rupp"
        date = "2020-12-13"
    strings:
        $typelibguid0 = "c12e69cd-78a0-4960-af7e-88cbd794af97" ascii nocase wide
    condition:
        (uint16(0) == 0x5A4D and uint32(uint32(0x3C)) == 0x00004550) and any of them
}
