Testing Methodology
Validate this detection against 3 adversary techniques from Atomic Red Team. Each test below lists the behaviour to exercise and the telemetry you should expect to see. Executable commands and cleanup steps are available with Pro.
- Test 1Unauthenticated File Enumeration via CentreStack Storage Endpoint
Expected signal: IIS access logs will show HTTP GET requests to /storage/, /files/, /share/ etc. from the test IP with no authentication headers. Responses of 200/206 indicate the vulnerability is present.
- Test 2Path Traversal Attempt Against CentreStack File Server
Expected signal: Web server logs will contain requests with URL-encoded traversal sequences. Windows Security Event Log Event ID 4663 may fire if file auditing is enabled and a real file is accessed.
- Test 3Bulk File Download Simulation from External IP
Expected signal: IIS logs will show high-volume sequential GET requests from a single external IP with large response sizes (sc-bytes). Network flow data will show sustained outbound data transfer to the test IP.
