Bypass Record
Process Injection × Trellix ePO
A publicly-reported instance of Process Injection bypassing Trellix ePO, recorded with its original source. Factual record; no assessment of any specific deployment.
Mechanism
The exploit injects shellcode into SCPBypass.exe, which then writes a bypass command to the named pipe \\.\pipe\MCPTrayPipe0. The pipe has a NULL DACL (RW Everyone), but the service's WGUARDNT module checks the writer's executable path. Injection bypasses this check by using a legitimate process. The shellcode avoids LoadLibrary hooks by Trellix/McAfee.
Detection & mitigation
Monitor for suspicious process injections into SCPBypass.exe, especially those writing to \\.\pipe\MCPTrayPipe0. Enable logging of named pipe connections and process creation events. Apply vendor patches when available.
This is a record of a publicly-reported event, not an assessment of any specific organization's deployment. Detection and mitigation notes are drawn from the cited source. Where the source is silent, fields are omitted.
