This is a work-in-progress. It's indicated with the 🛠️ emoji in the page name or in the category name. Wanna help? Please reach out to me:
once you have a shell on the victim, one of the most discreet ways to execute code is through object file because the idea is to avoid creating a sub-process but rather to allocate memory to run code and then resume its initial size.
Here is an example of how to launch the BoF (Beacon Object File) once compiled. The source code is available and the goal is to verify if we are dealing with a virtual machine or not.
For example, if you need the RegCloseKey function.
In our case :
Then, get the name of the library used (at the bottom of the page) in our case it is : Advapi32.lib
We have to structure it like this : DECLSPEC_IMPORT LSTATUS WINAPI <lib>$<Function>(<Args List>);
Still in our case, we will get this: DECLSPEC_IMPORT LSTATUS WINAPI ADVAPI32$RegCloseKey(HKEY);
Simply use the function like this in our code: ADVAPI32$RegCloseKeyA(hKey);
It is also possible to load a library and then call the method using methods like GetProcAddress or LoadLibraryA.
Below is an example of how to use this approach:
Look at the Windows documentation (in our example ) to get the list of the arguments.
In addition, to use theses functions download the library "beacon.h" available .
