Invoke-ArgFuscator is an open-source, cross-platform PowerShell module designed to obfuscate command-line arguments for system-native executables.
It provides a robust solution for both offensive and defensive cybersecurity practitioners to explore and counteract command-line obfuscation techniques.
Command-line obfuscation, classified under MITRE ATT&CK sub-technique T1027.010, involves manipulating command-line arguments to disguise their true intent.
This technique is often used by adversaries to bypass security detection mechanisms like antivirus (AV) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions.
Invoke-ArgFuscator addresses this challenge by enabling users to generate obfuscated command lines that retain functionality but are harder to analyze or detect.
The tool supports Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems, leveraging PowerShell as its base framework.
It automates the creation of obfuscated commands by inserting, deleting, or substituting characters in ways that do not affect the execution flow of the program.
Invoke-ArgFuscator can be installed via PowerShell using the following command:
Install-Module -Name Invoke-ArgFuscator
Once installed, users can invoke the module with specific commands. For instance:
powershell Invoke-ArgFuscator -Command 'certutil /f /urlcache https://www.example.org/ homepage.txt'
powershell Invoke-ArgFuscator -InputFile path\to\file.json
The module also allows integration into other PowerShell projects by importing it as a module and calling its functions programmatically.
Invoke-ArgFuscator serves multiple purposes:
Invoke-ArgFuscator fills a critical gap in the cybersecurity landscape by providing a centralized resource for exploring and mitigating command-line obfuscation techniques.
Its versatility across platforms and ease of integration make it an essential tool for both offensive and defensive security professionals.
