What it detects

This rule detects access to the marimo terminal WebSocket endpoint that an attacker abused for remote code execution as the initial pivot in an LLM-guided intrusion toward an internal database. The endpoint exposes an interactive shell over the notebook interface. Requests to this path from untrusted sources indicate attempted exploitation of the exposed marimo service.
