Go

Recently I started using Openbox as my WM again (after a long time with KDE, the nostalgia hit me). After I had everything working as I wanted to, I noticed the lack of a weather indicator in my systray. Usually, the desktop environments I have used (Gnome, KDE, Mate) have some sort of applet for this included and I really never bothered (when I was using Openbox before, I had some hacky script that would display the weather in my tint2, but I can’t find it anymore).

A code cave is a piece of code that is written to a process's memory by another program. The code can be executed by creating a remote thread within the target process. The Code cave of a code is often a reference to a section of the code’s script functions that have capacity for the injection of custom instructions. For example, if a script’s memory allows for 5 bytes and only 3 bytes are used, then the remaining 2 bytes can be used to add external code to the script.

Now I will show how GoLang interacts with ELF files in a generic example. You could look further into the native module here. I do recommend reading it, I am using some bits of code extracted directly from the module source. It is basically the same idea as the PE, similar module. You can extend it depending on your needs. Here you go. package main import ( "fmt" "io" "os" "debug/elf" ) func check(e error) { if e !

New blog design, new post. Today I will show how GoLang interacts with PE files in a generic example. You could look further into the native module here or even check its source code here. I do recommend reading it, I am using some bits of code extracted directly from the module source. Here you go. package main import ( "fmt" "debug/pe" "os" "io" "encoding/binary" ) func check(e error) { if e !

So I decided to port my Linux.Liora (https://github.com/guitmz/go-liora) Go infector to Win32 and it worked great. Minor tweaks were needed in the code, you can run a diff between both and check it out. EDIT: Fixed the PE verification routine, it checks for a proper PE file now. Thanks hh86! Virus source: /* * Win32.Liora.B - This is a POC PE prepender written in Go by TMZ (2015). * * Win32.

So this guy asks me in a job interview last week “Have you ever developed in Go?” and well what’s best to learn a language than writting a prepender (probably a lot of things but don’t kill my thrill)? There you have it, the probably first ever binary infector written in GoLang (SPTH LIP hxxp://spth.virii.lu/LIP.html “outdately” confirms that - replace hxxp with http, this website is wrongly classified as malicious for some security tools).
