Kernel Attacks Through User-Mode Callbacks
Posted Feb 26, 2013
Authored by Tarjei Mandt

In this paper, the author discusses the many challenges and problems concerning user-mode callbacks in win32k. In particular, they show how win32k's dependency on global locks in providing a thread-safe environment does not integrate well with the concept of user-mode callbacks. Although many vulnerabilities related to user-mode callbacks have been addressed, their complex nature suggests that more subtle flaws might still be present in win32k. Thus, in an effort to mitigate some of the more prevalent bug classes, they conclusively provide some suggestions as to how users may protect themselves against future kernel attacks.

This multi-part tutorial will present several ways in which you can add functionality to closed source Windows executables through DLLs, PE header modification, and good old assembly code. Adding code to existing code caves, modifying PE headers to create code caves and/or importing DLL functions, adding backdoors to programs, and adding plugin support to closed-source programs are all covered.
