CloseHandle, NtClose Anti-Debugging

When a process is debugged, calling NtClose or CloseHandle with an invalid handle will generate a STATUS_INVALID_HANDLE exception.

The exception can be cached by an exception handler. If the control is passed to the exception handler, it indicates that a debugger is present.

Heap Flag Anti-Debugging

ProcessHeap is located at 0x18 in the PEB structure. This first heap contains a header with fields used to tell the kernel whether the heap was created within a debugger. The heap contains two fields which are affected by the presence of a debugger. These fields are Flags and ForceFlags.

The values of Flags and ForceFlags are normally …

NtGlobalFlag Anti-Debugging

The information that the system uses to determine how to create heap structures is stored at an undocumented location in the PEB at offset 0x68. If the value at this location is 0x70, we know that we are running in a debugger.

The NtGlobalFlag field of the Process Environment Block (0x68 offset on 32-Bit and 0xBC on …

GetTickCount Anti-Debugging

This is typical timing function which is used to measure time needed to execute some function/instruction set. If the difference is more than fixed threshold, the process exits.

GetTickCount reads from the KUSER_SHARED_DATA page. This page is mapped read-only into the user mode range of the virtual address and read-write in the kernel range. The system clock tick updates …

Unhandled Exception Filter Anti-Debugging

An application-defined function that passes unhandled exceptions to the debugger, if the process is being debugged. Otherwise, it optionally displays an application error message box and causes the exception handler to be executed.

If an exception occurs and no exception handler is registered, the UnhandledExceptionFilter function will be called. It is possible to register a custom unhandled exception filter …

Performing Code Checksum Anti-Debugging

Adversaries may use code checksumming to detect if their code has been modified or tampered with. This technique involves calculating a checksum or hash of the code, storing it, and then periodically checking the current checksum against the stored one. If the checksums do not match, it indicates that the code has been modified and the adversary's code can take …

INT3 Instruction Scanning Anti-Debugging

Instruction INT3 is an interruption which is used as Software breakpoints. These breakpoints are set by modifying the code at the target address, replacing it with a byte value 0xCC (INT3 / Breakpoint Interrupt).

The exception EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT (0x80000003) is generated, and an exception handler will be raised. Malware identify software breakpoints by scanning for the byte 0xCC in the …

Abusing the Return Pointer Anti-Disassembly

Abusing the return pointer is an anti-disassembling technique that involves using the return instruction (RETN) in a way that is not expected by the disassembler. This can make it more difficult for the disassembler to accurately reconstruct the program's original instructions and can also make it more difficult for analysts to understand the program's behavior.

The RETN instruction is …

Obscuring Control Flow Anti-Disassembly

Obscuring control flow is an anti-disassembling technique that involves using methods of flow control that are difficult or impossible for disassemblers and debuggers to follow. This can make it more difficult for analysts to understand the program's behavior and can also make it more difficult for other tools, such as debuggers, to accurately interpret the program.

One example of …

Hook Injection Process Manipulating

Hook injection is a technique used by malware to alter the behavior of internal functions in an operating system or application. This is typically achieved by inserting malicious code into existing function calls, allowing the malware to intercept and manipulate the normal flow of execution.

In the case of Windows, the SetWindowsHookEx function can be used by programs to …
