External Variables in YARA Rules

Using the YARA rules in a tool other than LOKI or THOR Lite will cause errors stating an undefined identifier. The rules that make use of external variables have been moved to the following files:

./yara/generic_anomalies.yar
./yara/general_cloaking.yar
./yara/gen_webshells_ext_vars.yar
./yara/thor_inverse_matches.yar
./yara/yara_mixed_ext_vars.yar
./yara/configured_vulns_ext_vars.yar
./yara/gen_fake_amsi_dll.yar
./yara/expl_citrix_netscaler_adc_exploitation_cve_2023_3519.yar
./yara/yara-rules_vuln_drivers_strict_renamed.yar

Just remove these files in case you see the above error message.
