Yes, I think so. You get it over and over correct? I assume it's coming from the same place as on my systems. The whitelist is not very good for that command line I'm afraid. The activator of the drop mechanism happens out of the range of monitoring, so it appears to be all Windows based in the command line. However, it's not. I suppose NVT has run across this many times, so maybe he will add a comment or something...:)

False positive with the latest version and Sticky Password. I don't use Sticky but this was forwarded to me by someone else here and I checked, it's a FP. Remember, SP launches a command line when Chrome launches, which triggers this. Adding an exclusion doesn't fix it, in the short term he disabled the rule entirely.

However I searched the .tmp file on the disk and it does not exist, do you know why? :unsure:

Yes, I couldn't find it either. It must be instantly deleted. I tried to catch it, but I think the drop and delete are over in a matter of a blink of an eye. I thought I saw one of them once, but it was gone very fast...

Here is a new v1.4 (pre-release) test49:
http://downloads.novirusthanks.org/files/osarmor_setup_1.4_test49.exe

*** Please do not share the download link, we will delete it when we'll release the official v1.4 ***

So far this is what's new compared to the previous pre-release:

+ Improved Block execution of .wsf scripts
+ Improved Block suspicious command-lines
+ Disabled /silent and /verysilent uninstallation
+ Improved Prevent important Windows services from being disabled
+ Fixed some false positives

To install it, first uninstall the previous build, then reboot (not really needed but may help), and install the new build.

All reported FPs should be fixed.

The csc.exe execution is very hard to whitelist, personally I block csc.exe entirely (I don't use any .NET app here).

Blocking that events should not cause any issue anyway.

FP's with IDM not fixed and there's a problem with notification on multiple alerts at the same time only one notification alert appears, the rest alerts can only be seen in log file.

In Advanced > Attack Mitigation Rules :

Did you ticked "prevent regserver32.exe from loading dlls"? seems yes (based on your log) , so don't wonder why... (it is not an FP, it is expected behavior).

You have to create an exception rule if you want to keep the mitigation rule enabled.

I thought it could be whitelisted internally, anyway I excluded all four alerts but problem with multiple alerts at the same time should be fixed.
