This analytic rule is designed to detect attempts to exploit the Baron Samedit vulnerability (CVE-2021-3156) through the execution of the 'sudoedit -s *' command. This command is indicative of exploitation attempts via a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability affecting sudo, allowing privilege escalation on vulnerable systems. The detection leverages the `osquery_process` data source to search for process command lines that match the vulnerable execution pattern. Given that successful exploitation could allow an attacker to gain complete control of the system, execute arbitrary code, or access sensitive data, this rule is crucial for identifying potential threats. The implementation requires OSQuery to be set up for capturing process events, along with the Splunk OSQuery Add-on. Addressing false positives is currently noted as unknown, suggesting the need for further examination of alert contexts. The rule targets systems to mitigate exploitation risks effectively, especially within endpoint security environments.
