Possible RipZip Attack on Startup Folder (via file_event)
This rule detects a phishing attack which expands a ZIP file containing a hostile shortcut. If the victim expands the ZIP file via the explorer process, then the explorer process expands the hostile ZIP file and drops a hostile shortcut redirected to a backdoor into the Startup folder. Additionally, the file name of the hostile shortcut in Startup folder contains {0AFACED1-E828-11D1-9187-B532F1E9575D} meaning the folder shortcut operation.
