ATT&CK analytic guidance

DET0139 Detection of Credential Harvesting via API Hooking

AN0389 Analytic 0389

Detects credential harvesting via userland API hooking (e.g., SetWindowsHookEx, IAT, or inline patching) by correlating memory modifications with hook installation functions and suspicious module loads in credential-sensitive processes like lsass.exe, explorer.exe, or winlogon.exe.

AN0390 Analytic 0390

Detects credential interception via malicious LD_PRELOAD-based shared libraries loaded into ssh, sudo, or scp processes. Correlates environment variable injection, unexpected library loads, and memory patching behavior.

AN0391 Analytic 0391

Detects DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES abuse to hook credential-sensitive applications by correlating process spawns with unauthorized library injection and monitoring changes to the __TEXT segment (code) of credential handling binaries.

Threat actor context

These are explicit actor-to-technique associations in the existing Threat Matrix snapshot, not attribution of an event or proof that a detector identifies the actor. No tool-to-actor relationship is inferred.
