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 1Simulate Deserialization Probe to Cache Warmer Endpoint
Expected signal: POST request to /mirasvit/cachewarmer/collect visible in web access logs with payload containing 'O:8:' serialization marker; HTTP response code logged
- Test 2PHP Deserialization Gadget Chain Simulation (Lab)
Expected signal: PHP CLI process spawned with command-line containing unserialize() — visible in auditd execve records or CrowdStrike process telemetry
- Test 3Web Shell Drop Simulation Following Deserialization RCE
Expected signal: File creation event in /var/www/html/pub/ for a .php file by the web server user (www-data or nginx); auditd CREATE record or Falcon sensor file event
