ATT&CK analytic guidance

DET0452 Detect Subversion of Trust Controls via Certificate, Registry, and Attribute Manipulation

AN1246 Analytic 1246

Detection correlates abnormal installation or modification of root or code-signing certificates, creation/modification of suspicious registry keys for trust providers, and unusual module loads from non-standard locations. Identifies unsigned or improperly signed executables bypassing trust prompts, combined with persistence artifacts.

AN1247 Analytic 1247

Detection monitors extended attribute manipulation (xattr) to strip quarantine or trust metadata, anomalous installation of root certificates in /etc/ssl or /usr/local/share/ca-certificates, and unauthorized modification of system trust stores. Correlates with unexpected process execution involving package managers or custom certificate utilities.

AN1248 Analytic 1248

Detection monitors modification of code signing attributes, Gatekeeper/quarantine flags, and insertion of new trust certificates via security add-trusted-cert. Identifies adversary use of xattr to strip quarantine flags from downloaded binaries. Correlates with abnormal module loads bypassing SIP protections.
