Creation of Hidden Shared Object File

[rule]
description = """
Identifies the creation of a hidden shared object (.so) file. Users can mark specific files as hidden simply by putting
a "." as the first character in the file or folder name. Adversaries can use this to their advantage to hide files and
folders on the system for persistence and defense evasion.
