ATT&CK analytic guidance

DET0300 Detection Strategy for Reflective Code Loading

AN0838 Analytic 0838

Detect anomalous chains of memory allocation and execution inside the same process (e.g., VirtualAlloc → memcpy → VirtualProtect → CreateThread). Unlike process injection, reflective code loading does not perform cross-process memory writes — the suspicious activity occurs entirely within the process’s own PID context.

AN0839 Analytic 0839

Monitor for in-process mmap + mprotect + execve/execveat activity where memory permissions are changed from writable to executable inside the same process without a corresponding ELF on disk.

AN0840 Analytic 0840

Suspicious calls to dlopen(), dlsym(), or mmap with RWX flags in processes that do not typically perform dynamic module loading. Monitor anonymous memory regions executed by user processes.

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.
