PoCs for Kernelmode rootkit techniques research or education. Currently focusing on Windows OS. All modules support 64bit OS only.
NOTE
Some modules use
ExAllocatePool2API to allocate kernel pool memory.ExAllocatePool2API is not supported in OSes older than Windows 10 Version 2004. If you want to test the modules in old OSes, replaceExAllocatePool2API withExAllocatePoolWithTagAPI.
All modules are tested in Windows 11 x64. To test drivers, following options can be used for the testing machine:
debugging-in-windbg--cdb--or-ntsd">Setting Up Kernel-Mode Debugging
Each options require to disable secure boot.
Detailed information is given in README.md in each project's directories. All modules are tested in Windows 11.
| Module Name | Description |
|---|---|
| BlockImageLoad | PoCs to block driver loading with Load Image Notify Callback method. |
| BlockNewProc | PoCs to block new process with Process Notify Callback method. |
| CreateToken | PoCs to get full privileged SYSTEM token with ZwCreateToken() API. |
| DropProcAccess | PoCs to drop process handle access with Object Notify Callback. |
| GetFullPrivs | PoCs to get full privileges with DKOM method. |
| GetProcHandle | PoCs to get full access process handle from kernelmode. |
| InjectLibrary | PoCs to perform DLL injection with Kernel APC Injection method. |
| ModHide | PoCs to hide loaded kernel drivers with DKOM method. |
| ProcHide | PoCs to hide process with DKOM method. |
| ProcProtect | PoCs to manipulate Protected Process. |
| QueryModule | PoCs to perform retrieving kernel driver loaded address information. |
| StealToken | PoCs to perform token stealing from kernelmode. |
More PoCs especially about following things will be added later:
