The IntelLifter's _emit_filtered fans out only the rule.emits entries
whose technique_id appears in the predicate's decision set. v1's emits
lists were narrow supersets of the common case, silently dropping the
rest of the predicate's possible emissions:
R0054 dropped: T1046 (cat 14), T1078 (cat 20), T1090 (cats 9/13),
T1496 (cat 11), T1595 (cats 14/19)
R0055 dropped: T1090 (tor_exit_node), T1110 (ssh_bruteforcer),
T1588 (the second emit of every C2-framework tag)
R0057 dropped: T1105 (payload_delivery, download_url)
Bump rule_version 1->2 on R0054/R0055/R0057, expand emits to cover
every technique the predicate produces. R0056 (Feodo) and R0058
(aggregate bump) carry no enum and stay at v1.
All five YAMLs gain `last_reviewed: "2026-05-02"` and
`next_review: "2026-08-02"` markers; the rule YAML is now the
canonical record of when the mapping was last reconciled against
upstream, with DEBT.md as the calendar reminder.
IdentityLifter owns lifter:identity_* — currently R0003 (password
spraying). CredentialLifter owns lifter:credential_* — R0001 generic
auth brute, R0002 password guessing, R0004 credential reuse, R0005
valid-account use, R0006 default credentials.
YAMLs R0001/R0002/R0003/R0005/R0006 had their match.kind normalised
to fit the lifter prefix scheme — the design doc's promised "YAMLs
normalised in a separate refactor commit" lands here.
Identity-rollup tags null out attacker_uuid on emit so the worked-
example invariant holds (the tag belongs to the Identity, never to
one member IP).
Tests: test_identity_lifter.py + test_credential_lifter.py cover
each predicate's positive/negative path, state modulation
(disabled/clipped/expired), source-kind gating, and idempotent
replay. test_lifter_absence and test_lifters updated for the new
ctor signature.
Reads pre-shaped session aggregates from TaggerEvent.payload and emits
techniques per Appendix A behavior tables. Per-rule predicates dispatch
on match.kind (lifter:behavioral_<name>); the lifter holds its own
RuleIndex watching the same RuleStore as the engine, so disable / clip /
TTL state reaches lifter-bound rules through the same atomic-swap path.
R0032/R0036/R0037/R0040 YAMLs had over-escaped regex strings (\\
instead of \\) — fixed in place.
Factory wired so default get_tagger() returns CompositeTagger with
BehavioralLifter shipped; remaining three lifters (E.3.10-E.3.12) land
in subsequent commits.
E.2.6 contract preserved via TolerantTagger: empty payload steady-state
yields [] with zero ERROR records. Disabled / clipped / expired state
verified.
E.3.9.1 prerequisite. Rules R0031-R0040 now use lifter:behavioral_*,
R0041 (open_relay) uses lifter:email_open_relay; the rest of the email,
canary, and intel cohorts already conformed. Each lifter at E.3.9-E.3.12
will claim its rules via str.startswith('lifter:<owner>_'), keeping the
ownership routing explicit and trivially extensible.
R0001-R0006 / R0030 lifter:* rules are E.3.13 (Identity/Credential)
territory and stay as-is.
5 YAMLs for the intel-verdict cohort per Appendix B / A.10:
AbuseIPDB category mapping, GreyNoise classification, Feodo
Tracker hit, ThreatFox IOC type, aggregate-malicious bump-only.
IntelLifter (E.3.10) consumes by rule_id and tolerates absence
silently (null provider column → no tag).
R0058 is the meta bump-only rule — emits a single confidence=0.0
sentinel so it validates and surfaces in the catalogue, but the
repository's sub-0.3 drop ensures no fresh tag persists if the
fanout fires accidentally. test_intel_rules.py pins that
zero-confidence invariant.
Marks E.3.8 done in development/TTP_TAGGING.md with the cohort-
split summary.
5 YAMLs for the canary-fingerprint cohort per Appendix B / A.9:
navigator.webdriver flag, automation canvas/audio/WebGL hash match,
WebRTC IP leak, TZ/lang vs geo mismatch, platform inconsistency.
CanaryFingerprintLifter (E.3.11) consumes by rule_id.
test_canary_rules.py: YAML-present + inert-in-v0 + xfail(strict)
gated on E.3.11.
10 YAMLs for the behavioral / cross-event cohort per Appendix B:
beaconing, data destruction, ransom note, web exfil, DB mass-read,
credentials-in-files, k8s SA token harvest, Docker host escape,
LLMNR poisoning, TFTP router-config retrieval.
Every rule is lifter-bound (BehavioralLifter / IdentityLifter) —
the v0 RuleEngine cannot count, aggregate, or compose cross-event
signals, so these YAMLs declare the technique mappings the lifter
will consume by rule_id at E.3.9. Their match specs use a
'kind: lifter:*' shape inert to the regex matcher.
test_behavioral_rules.py asserts each YAML compiles, none fire
from the v0 engine (FP regression guard against a YAML drifting
into a regex), and an xfail(strict=True, reason='impl phase E.3.9')
precision case that will flip green when the lifter lands.
30 YAMLs for the shell/command rule cohort per Appendix B (rules/ttp/).
Splits into engine-active (R0007-R0029, regex on command_text /
raw_url / user_agent) and lifter-bound (R0001-R0006, R0030 — the
v0 RuleEngine cannot count auth attempts, do identity rollups, or
parse fingerprint blobs; the BehavioralLifter / IdentityLifter /
CredentialLifter consume them by rule_id at E.3.9 / E.3.13).
test_command_rules.py asserts:
- every R000N has a YAML that compiles
- lifter-bound rules NEVER fire from the v0 engine (regression
guard against a YAML drifting into a regex match.spec)
- engine-active rules meet their Appendix-C precision target
against the seed corpus (≥0.95 high-conf, ≥0.80 medium)
Conftest fixes: precision_engine moved to module-scope so module-
scope precomputed dispatch fixture (fired_by_label) can request it;
_RULES_DIR path bumped from parents[2] to parents[3] so the loader
resolves the project root regardless of pytest cwd; make_event
synthesizes attacker_uuid so TTPTag's anchor invariant is satisfied.
Seed corpus broadened: positive examples for every regex rule plus
6 negative examples across innocuous shell verbs (ls, echo, cd, ps,
df, free) so FPs surface in precision rather than passing vacuously.
