  • Portable Executable File Format
    Chapter 11 Portable Executable File Format IN THIS CHAPTER + Understanding the structure of a PE file + Talking in terms of RVAs + Detailing the PE format + The importance of indices in the data directory + How the loader interprets a PE file MICROSOFT INTRODUCED A NEW executable file format with Windows NT. This for- mat is called the Portable Executable (PE) format because it is supposed to be portable across all 32-bit operating systems by Microsoft. The same PE format exe- cutable can be executed on any version of Windows NT, Windows 95, and Win32s. Also, the same format is used for executables for Windows NT running on proces- sors other than Intel x86, such as MIPS, Alpha, and Power PC. The 32-bit DLLs and Windows NT device drivers also follow the same PE format. It is helpful to understand the PE file format because PE files are almost identi- cal on disk and in RAM. Learning about the PE format is also helpful for under- standing many operating system concepts. For example, how operating system loader works to support dynamic linking of DLL functions, the data structures in- volved in dynamic linking such as import table, export table, and so on. The PE format is not really undocumented. The WINNT.H file has several struc- ture definitions representing the PE format. The Microsoft Developer's Network (MSDN) CD-ROMs contain several descriptions of the PE format. However, these descriptions are in bits and pieces, and are by no means complete. In this chapter, we try to give you a comprehensive picture of the PE format.

  • Elfbac: Using the Loader Format for Intent-Level Semantics and Fine-Grained Protection
    ELFbac: Using the Loader Format for Intent-Level Semantics and Fine-Grained Protection Julian Bangert, Sergey Bratus, Rebecca Shapiro, Michael E. Locasto,∗ Jason Reeves, Sean W. Smith, Anna Shubina Computer Science Technical Report TR2013-727 Dartmouth College June 14, 2013 Abstract Adversaries get software to do bad things by rewriting memory and changing control flow. Current approaches to protecting against these attacks leave many exposures; for example, OS-level filesystem protection and OS/architecture support of the userspace/kernelspace distinction fail to protect corrupted userspace code from changing userspace data. In this paper we present a new approach: using the ELF/ABI sections already produced by the standard binary toolchain to define, specify, and enforce fine-grained policy within an application's address space. We experimentally show that enforcement of such policies would stop a large body of current attacks and discuss ways we could extend existing architecture to more efficiently provide such enforcement. Our approach is designed to work with existing ELF executables and the GNU build chain, but it can be extended into the compiler toolchains to support code annotations that take advantage of ELFbac enforcement|while maintaining full compatibility with the existing ELF ABI. 1 Introduction This paper presents the design and implementation of ELFbac (ELF behavior access control), a mechanism that separates different components of a program's memory space at runtime and polices their interactions to enforce the intended pattern of these interactions at the granularity compatible with the program's ABI format units such as ELF sections. Modern programs are primarily built by composing libraries, modules, classes, and objects into some cohesive whole.

  • Stealth Secrets of the Malware Ninjas
    Stealth Secrets of the Malware Ninjas By Nick Harbour Overview Intro Background Info • Malware • Forensics and Incident Response • Anti-Forensics • Executables Stealth Techniques • Live System Anti-Forensics Process Camouflage Process Injection Executing Code from Memory • Offline Anti-Forensics File Hiding Trojanizing Anti-Reverse Engineering There will be something for the “Good Guys” near the end • A brand new malware scanning tool 2 Introduction This presentation will cover a variety of stealth techniques currently used by malware in the field. Many of the techniques are based on malware studied during MANDIANT’s incident experiences. 3 Introduction The purpose of this talk is to discuss malware stealth techniques other than Rootkits. The majority of the material is designed to teach the “Bad Guys” some practical real world techniques to fly beneath the radar. For the “Good Guys”, learning these malicious techniques will help prepare you to identify and counter malware threats. 4 Prerequisites There’s something for everyone! The material we will cover the range from basic computing concepts to machine code. We will primarily be discussing techniques for Windows, but Linux will also discussed at an advanced level. 5 Background Information Malware In intrusion incidents, malware is frequently found in several inter-related families of tools. Often found in redundant layers for failover or bootstrapping. Command and Control Data Collection Data Transfer Cracking/Exploitation 7 Malware In practice, stealth techniques are most often employed to protect an intruder’s command and control mechanism These often require persistence which poses a risk of discovery Command and Control is the keys to the intruder’s newly acquired kingdom 8 Forensics and Incident Response Traditional Computer Forensics involves examining the contents of computer media for evidence of a crime.
