FUD-UUID-Shellcode is another shellcode injection technique using C++ that attempts to bypass Windows Defender using XOR encryption sorcery and UUID strings madness.
Firstly, generate a payload in binary format( using either CobaltStrike
or msfvenom
) for instance, in msfvenom
, you can do it like so( the payload I’m using is for illustration purposes, you can use whatever payload you want ):
msfvenom -p windows/messagebox -f raw -o shellcode.bin
Then convert the shellcode( in binary/raw format ) into a UUID
string format using the Python3 script, bin_to_uuid.py
:
./bin_to_uuid.py -p shellcode.bin > uuid.txt
xor
encrypt the UUID
strings in the uuid.txt
using the Python3 script, xor_encryptor.py
.
./xor_encryptor.py uuid.txt > xor_crypted_out.txt
Copy the C-style
array in the file, xor_crypted_out.txt
, and paste it in the C++ file as an array of unsigned char
i.e. unsigned char payload[]{your_output_from_xor_crypted_out.txt}
This shellcode injection technique comprises the following subsequent steps:
VirtualAlloc
xor
decrypts the payload using the xor
key valueUuidFromStringA
to convert UUID
strings into their binary representation and store them in the previously allocated memory. This is used to avoid the usage of suspicious APIs like WriteProcessMemory
or memcpy
.EnumChildWindows
to execute the payload previously loaded into memory( in step 1 )memcpy
or WriteProcessMemory
which are known to raise alarms to AVs/EDRs, this program uses the Windows API function called UuidFromStringA
which can be used to decode data as well as write it to memory( Isn’t that great folks? And please don’t say “NO!” 🙂 ).xor
key(line 85) to what you wish. This also has to be done in the ./xor_encryptor.py
python3 script by changing the KEY
variable. The keys have to match!executable filename
value(row 90) to your filename.mingw
was used but you can use whichever compiler you prefer. 🙂make
