SteelCon 2014 - Python Process Injection Proof of Concept Code

Proof of Concept code written to demonstrate using python-ptrace to inject code into arbritary processes on Linux for my talk at SteelCon in July 2014.

Dependencies:

• python-paramiko (for DiabolicalMouse-mass.py stager utility)
• python-ptrace (for injection tools)

Licence:

See LICENCE.txt - uses the WTFPL licence.

What?

• x86-inject.py - Simple x86 process injection tool for demonstration purposes.
• x64-inject.py - Simple x86_64 process injection tool for demonstration purposes.
• x64-inject-fork.py - Simple x86_64 process injection tool for demonstration purposes, which prepends the shellcode with a "fork" call in the hopes of not harming target process.
• armv7l-inject.py - Simple ARMv7l process injection tool for demonstration purposes. (missing, somewhere on my Nexus 7...)
• EnchantedMushroom.py - Multi Arch (ARMv7l, x86, x86_64) process injection tool which intelligently detects which architecture it is running on, and deploys the correct shellcode/technique as-needed
• DiabolicalMouse-mass.py - Automatic stager for deploying python scripts in-memory across multiple hosts using SSH.

Thanks

Many thanks to the SteelCon crew for giving me a chance to present this, and also to my colleagues at Xiphos Research Labs who helped me out with presenting it and testing out the code.

Also thanks to jtripper, elfmaster, and the various authors of Phrack articles that helped me get the idea solid in my head and understand what I was trying to do with their sample code and articles and such

Notes

Lots of work to be done. Also, please, for the love of god, use your own shellcode...
