CrimsonEDR : A Cutting-Edge Tool For Simulating And Bypassing EDR Systems

CrimsonEDR is an open-source tool developed by Matthias Ossard, designed to simulate the behavior of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems.

It provides a platform for identifying malware patterns and understanding evasion techniques, making it valuable for cybersecurity professionals seeking to enhance their skills in bypassing EDR mechanisms.

Key Features

CrimsonEDR employs a variety of detection methods to identify malware activities:

  • Direct Syscall Detection: Identifies malware leveraging direct system calls to bypass standard API hooks.
  • NTDLL Unhooking: Detects attempts to unhook functions in the NTDLL library, a common evasion tactic.
  • AMSI Patch Detection: Analyzes byte-level modifications to the Anti-Malware Scan Interface (AMSI).
  • ETW Patch Detection: Identifies changes in Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) used to evade detection.
  • PE Stomping: Recognizes instances of Portable Executable (PE) stomping.
  • Reflective PE Loading: Detects reflective loading of PE files, a technique used to avoid static analysis.
  • Unbacked Thread Origin and Start Address: Flags threads originating from unbacked memory regions or with suspicious start addresses.
  • API Hooking: Monitors memory modifications by placing hooks on functions like NtWriteVirtualMemory.
  • Custom Pattern Search: Allows users to define specific malware signatures in a JSON file for targeted detection.

To set up CrimsonEDR:

  1. Install dependencies: textsudo apt-get install gcc-mingw-w64-x86-64
  2. Clone the repository: textgit clone https://github.com/Helixo32/CrimsonEDR
  3. Compile the project: textcd CrimsonEDR chmod +x compile.sh ./compile.sh

To use CrimsonEDR, ensure the ioc.json file is in the same directory as the executable being monitored. Execute the tool with arguments specifying the DLL path and target process ID (PID), e.g.:

text.\CrimsonEDRPanel.exe -d C:\Temp\CrimsonEDR.dll -p 1234

Due to its nature, CrimsonEDR may be flagged as malicious by antivirus software. Users should whitelist the DLL or temporarily disable antivirus tools during its operation.

CrimsonEDR is ideal for malware development training, security research, and testing evasion techniques against EDR systems.

It offers insights into advanced detection methods and equips users with practical knowledge for real-world cybersecurity challenges.
