Obfuscated Files or Information: Compile After Delivery
![Defense Evasion [Mitre] icon](/media/2024/04/08/icons8-burglar.svg){kind=small}
Adversaries may attempt to make payloads difficult to discover and analyze by delivering files to victims as uncompiled code. Text-based source code files may subvert analysis and scrutiny from protections targeting executables/binaries. These payloads will need to be compiled before execution; typically via native utilities such as csc.exe or GCC/MinGW.
Source code payloads may also be encrypted, encoded, and/or …

Adversaries may use InstallUtil to proxy execution of code through a trusted Windows utility. InstallUtil is a command-line utility that allows for installation and uninstallation of resources by executing specific installer components specified in .NET binaries. The InstallUtil binary may also be digitally signed by Microsoft and located in the .NET directories on a Windows system: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v\InstallUtil.exe and …

Adversaries may abuse Regsvr32.exe to proxy execution of malicious code. Regsvr32.exe is a command-line program used to register and unregister object linking and embedding controls, including dynamic link libraries (DLLs), on Windows systems. The Regsvr32.exe binary may also be signed by Microsoft.
Malicious usage of Regsvr32.exe may avoid triggering security tools that may not monitor execution of, and modules …

Atom Bombing is a technique that utilizes Windows Atom Tables, which provide a global storage mechanism for strings, to inject malicious code into a target process.
The technique involves storing a shellcode in an Atom Table, then using the NtQueueApcThread function to force the targeted process to access the specific Atom, causing the injection to occur. To bypass Data …
Propagate
This technique involves modifying the internal properties of a window in order to intercept and modify or monitor the behavior of the window when it receives messages. To do this, an application creates a buffer containing shellcode and injects it into the target process.
Then, it modifies the internal structure used by the specific properties, such as UxSubclassInfo and …
