What it detects

This rule detects GitHub commit search API requests carrying the firedalazer trigger token which the TeamPCP @antv backdoor polls as a dead-drop command-and-control channel over a legitimate web service. Use of GitHub search as a covert C2 with this specific query string indicates an active implant awaiting operator instructions.
