+title: Powerup Write Hijack DLL
+id: 602a1f13-c640-4d73-b053-be9a2fa58b96
+status: experimental
+description: |
+ Powerup tool's Write Hijack DLL exploits DLL hijacking for privilege escalation.
+ In it's default mode, it builds a self deleting .bat file which executes malicious command. 
+ The detection rule relies on creation of the malicious bat file (debug.bat by default).
