Hi! The reason I have not already done that is; 1. People seldom have much trouble with such hooks. 2. Getting the names of those hooks is trickier... They reside in multiple files... I f

@rchockxm - Here you go! New version in first post. ; 0.501 ; Added: SSDTshadow - not complete, but fully functional. = lacking names. (Logic is painful; need to guard against faults...) ; Fixed:

Very good :party: this is extremely useful :party: i like it ^^ no doubt that 5 stars.

Thanks! :P

Okay, I tracked down the issue. It has to do with this function call:

$mlret = DllCall($hDll, "str*", "GetModuleNameFromAddress", "int", $threads[$i][1], "int", $threads[$i][4])

Yup. That code runs RtlQueryProcessDebugInformation, which apparently was used in Process Explorer and ran into the same troubles with cygwin... I'll try and move back to toolhelp-functions. They are slower, but as a bonus they seem to get modules of "protected" processes...

The strange part is that the toolhelp-function uses RtlQueryProcessDebugInformation... (They do other interesting stuff in there that I have not had the time or will to analyse...)

I am looking into maybe doing RtlQueryProcessDebugInformation in a separate thread and looking for lockups...

does yourprogram inject that dll in sme process?

No. It doesn't, though there is atleast one Microsoft-API I use that injects microsoft-code in other procs to get info; RtlQueryProcessDebugInformation.

Sorry, not fixed but different. :mellow:

If I can help in anyway let me know.

Run this code and try to start ProDLLer.

If it doesnt work. Run it again and restart windows before trying again...

RegDelete("HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Skeleton")
RegDelete("HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Skeleton")
RegDelete("HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services\Skeleton")
RegDelete("HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet003\Services\Skeleton")

Ahh, another 'undocumented' function I hadn't really noticed before. I see its in one of the books I use for reference (Windows NT/2000 Native API Reference), but I guess I skipped over it. I wonder now that you mention the part about Protected processes... are there certain DLL's that are allowed access to Protected processes, or is there really some hidden trick to bypass the protection mechanism? It sure would be nice to get a hold of the 'bypass code' if its out there, so one could access most all information we would want. I remember reading that even WMI can't get some/all info about Protected processes. But ahh, a subject of discussion for another thread I suppose. At least we know the problem can be solved. :mellow:

New version.

; 0.496
; Fixed: Sometimes old procs, next to new ones, would get marked as new.
; Fixed: RtlQueryProcessDebugInformation, (part of threads enumeration) is prone to lockups. Now runs in separate thread. (Reported by Ascend4nt)
; Change: Display GUI earlier. (Though it gives an impression of a slower start, on a slow system, we will atleast know it's started...)
; Fixed: Further errorchecking at driver load. Can't start driver from mapped drive. => Copy to local dir and start... (Reported by storme.)

@Ascend4NT: The protected procs/services ala Vista/Win7 is easy to disable, just a bitsetting in _EPROCESS structure in kernel. Others: like anti-virus and also malicous code with selfprotection, often rely on hooking api's we would like to use to get AT them... There are just too many ways...

Hi Manko,

though I have joined this forum very recently but have been working with Autoit for quite sometime now. (that explains my newbie status)

For past few months I have been working on a security app for pendrives, for which I was looking for a method which is available in the script which you have written. (No new procs and procs only from prodller) DLLCalls go above my head - as on this moment.

I want to integrate this specific feature in my project. but am unable to understand as to how this is being done within the script.

Could you shed some light onto this?

Regards

Slashh.

Hi!

It's good you found a way.

The source-code for the driver is messy (like most of my code...) and uncommented.

If there's some part of it you'd like clarified, I could do that before putting it here...

Also, I have to warn you about using my driver in ways I had not intended, it is only bugfixed for my needs and it is always early beta...

Also the piece of code you're after is not tested on all configurations (certainly not working on x64....).

btw, feel free to inspire me on new things to do with prodller... (except dump it in the bin...)

Hi Manko,

I have used this code and skeleton.sys for the following:

App1 - initiates skeleton.sys with @AutoitPID

App1 - executes App2.

App2 - acquires the handle of skeleton.sys and executes App4, App5 - these are decrypting modules and password generation modules.

App3 - Simply executes the code.

This ensures that at every moment no new process can be started except from within the designated applications.

Debuggers and other reverse engineering tools have been taken care of.

---------

Second application is for Virus Removal, modifying it to suit the algorithm, Algorithm is as follows : it does an analysis of the threads and the processes , gets their path and checks the RC section of the file, awards points based on the information stored in the file and the ones with least points are tagged as suspicious. 1% False Positive. Dlls and their dates blabh blabh (for any injection attempt)

This is an idea - trying to complete it. I hope this entices you to go ahead and build AI into prodller.

Regards

A few additions:

1: IE causes a problem when started from within the process but Firefox just works great.

Well well well.... what do we have here --- Auto Downloaded Malware is unable to execute a process but embeded video and mp3 files just work fine.

2: None of the Antivirus Applications seem to have an answer for that as they themselves are unable to start heir scanning process ... thats bad news or just bad coding from AV guys...

3: GMER works great .... now it is able to terminate the processes without the worry of restart, nor does GMER hang.

4: GMER doesnt detect Spy apps but Prodller is 1+ point up ... can detect kernel spy processes ....

Refuses to work for me, I have tried the exe version and the script

both startup then I get the message "no ntoskrnl.exe or similar???"

I click ok and then the gui dissappears.

oops should have said, I use XP(sp2)

Yes, sadly I never tried it on xp(sp2). Din't know people still used. Is there something in the sp3 you don't wanna have onboard?

/Manko

Something in sp3 I dont want, nothing in particular, just dont see any need for it as my pc is running well, and sp3 may just take up extra space (quite a bit) and may slow the sytem down, dont know really but if it aint broke... anyway didnt know it wouldnt work with sp2 or I wouldnt have tried it!!

never mind.

Interesting observations. If I get time, I would like to make the blocking mechanism interactive. It would not be ALL that much work...

I should look on that IE prob...

I have to ask, I have not put in special scanning of hidden processes, when you say "can detect kernel spy processes" what is it detecting?

with IE the issue is that IE8 starts multiple processes,.

In Prodller, you have Kernel Spy Process, i.e. those process which are in listen only mode. all other apps whch I have been using for weeding out rootkits dont have this feature.

PS: XP SP2 or XP SP3 wrks fine ... W2k3 ok.... been testing all the time on W2k3

After using the application for a while, I've gotta say this is the perfect tool for quickly disabling rouge applications that fail to comply with taskmanager.

It's especially useful when you have friends that only know how to watch porn and download supposed video codecs and fake antivirus software.

This is purely outstanding work Manko and a great contribution to the Autoit community!

ProDLLer is back to alpha...

I need YOU to beta-test!

After more than a year of inactivity I made too many changes... I fixed some bugs bad added a lot!

But fear not! I put in crashrecoverycode that will save you while operating in enemy territory.

If ProDLLer crashes, a new instance will always be waiting to take it's place.

BEWARE! There will be bugs! :graduated:

Attachment in first post.

Most Recent changes...
 
; 0.499
; Added: If over 16 procs start from 1 sec to another or if a total of 40 procs have started; "NoProcsAllowed" is activated.
; Added: Crash-recovery... Just start a new instance of ProDLLer... :)
; Change: No loading of moduleinfo at start.
; Added: Refresh moduleinfo when we need it. KINDA CLUNKY SINCE I ITERATE ALL OF THEM, RIGHT NOW....
; Added: On start of app. Disallow new procs. "NoProcsAllowed" is activated.
; Fixed: A number of bugs that crash Prodller if insane amounts of processes start and stop...
 
; 0.498
; Fixed: "KernelNot.". When disabling callbacks; adjacent CBs of same type would sometimes vanish. Famous anti-rootkit had same faulty behavior.
 
; 0.497
; Fixed: Lockup when suspending some procs during modules-itteration. Context-menu disabled during itteration.
; Fixed: Lockup after thread-view due to excessive killing of already terminated security-threads... Now checking IF it needs killing...
; Fixed: Lockup when trying to change state of services while it is already working with your earlier request. Disable display.

Yeah! I'll admit I was too hasty with v0.499... But I needed the pressure perhaps...

v0.500 feels pretty solid...

New version in first post.

New...

; 0.500

; Added: Startup-killing... to take a load off the GUI... it will ask...

; Fixed: Slowdown because I accidentaly changed ProDLLer to itterate processes every second...

; Fixed: Process-CPU-utilization. Movement of abandoned children... I cheat. Just load up new list...

; Fixed: Got rid of the Adlib. There were too many possible problems...

; Fixed: CPU-load. Is again aligned...

+ A slew of fixes that I didn't record...
