Strings (5 patterns)
| Identifier | Type | Value | Modifiers |
|---|---|---|---|
| $ | text | "2>&1>/dev/null&" | ascii |
| $ | text | ".php HTTP/1.1" | ascii |

Condition
uint32be( 0 ) == 0x7f454c46 and filesize < 3MB and 3 of themIn plain words (Heuristic)
- The file must start with the ELF header — a Linux/Unix executable.
- The file must be smaller than 3MB (a cheap guard that skips large files).
- At least 3 patterns in the rule must match.
