Log sources and channels
Exactly as MITRE states them in x_mitre_log_source_references. Where a channel is vague, it is vague in the source; kevmap does not tidy it.
| Log source | Channel | Data component |
|---|---|---|
| auditd:SYSCALL | open, read, or stat of browser config files | DC0055 File Access |
| linux:syslog | Suspicious script or command execution targeting browser folders | DC0064 Command Execution |
Mutable elements
Parameters MITRE marks as environment-specific. These are the knobs you are expected to tune; they are why an analytic is not a rule.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
BrowserProfilePath | User-specific browser data folders, e.g., ~/.config/chromium/Default/History |
ShellRegex | Shell pattern detecting suspicious access to .sqlite or .json files |
