Samirbous ec4a0e58e4 [New] Suspicious Execution from VS Code Extension (#5786)
* [New] Suspicious Execution from VS Code Extension

Detects suspicious process execution launched from a VS Code extension context (parent command line contains
.vscode/extensions). Malicious extensions can run on startup and drop or execute payloads (e.g. RATs like
ScreenConnect, script interpreters, or download utilities). This covers both script/LOLBin children and
recently created executables from non-Program Files paths, as seen in campaigns such as the fake Clawdbot
extension that installed ScreenConnect RAT.

rules/

Rules within this folder are organized by solution or platform. The structure is flattened out, because nested file hierarchies are hard to navigate and find what you're looking for. Each directory contains several .toml files, and the primary ATT&CK tactic is included in the file name when it's relevant (i.e. windows/execution_via_compiled_html_file.toml)
