This detection rule aims to identify potentially malicious usage of the VaultCLI.dll module, which allows programs to access and extract credentials from the Windows Credential Vault. It targets API calls that suggest abnormal interactions with the module, particularly from processes executing from insecure directories that may be publicly writable such as Windows' Fonts and Temp folders. The rule is informed by threat intelligence, noting that similar behavior has been observed in information stealing malware, such as Meduza. It combines both signature-based detection and behavior analysis to ensure swift identification and remediation of potential credential theft attempts, thereby protecting sensitive user information and fortifying system integrity.
