I was interested in better understanding a specific detection mechanism of an EDR, focusing on fake DLLs, page guard hooking, PEB manipulation, and vectored exception handling - techniques inspired by the game hacking community.

I'm not a reverse engineer, but in this blog post I tried my best to explain in detail how the detection logic (probably) works and how it could be "bypassed" from an attacker's (red team's) perspective.

By bypassing I mean avoiding prevention and detection by the respective EPP/EDR based on active alerts, it does not include all the telemetry related stuff. I just want to mention this because in general I think the term bypassing should be used very sensitively, carefully and precisely.

In general, in this case the focus was not primarily on finding a "bypass", I was much more interested in learning a bit about reverse engineering in the context of EDRs.

If there are any mistakes or if something is not described correctly, please let me know. Also feel free to give constructive feedback at any time.

The blog post is available in English and German, just switch from EN to DE on the website.

I am happy to share a recent blogpost about weaponizing DLL Hijacking / Sideloading for getting initial access and establishing persistence:

Hope this is useful, and as always, reach out if you have questions.

I sometimes do recreational malware analysis with random samples 4fun. In this one, I unpacked 2 stages of .NET to reveal SnakeKeylogger and subsequently enumerated info about the threat actor via his Telegram API token.

New Blog Alert! 🚨

Introducing Early Cascade Injection, a stealthy process injection technique that targets Windows process creation, avoids cross-process APCs, and evades top-tier EDRs.

Here's my journey/blog of an entire wasted day on reversing the NTAPI call and the internals of ntdll!LdrpVectorHandlerList to write my own RtlpAddVectoredExceptionHandler from scratch. The code is hosted on my git.

Call it the biggest #NTLM #password database or monstrous #MD5 leak, but on, you can find precomputed datasets for various wordlists and different hashes - all free!
FYI: all_in_one.latin.txt for NTLM contains 26.5 billion pairs of hash:password inside!🔥

Mist from @hackthebox_eu is just a monster active directory challenge. My favorite parts were exploiting PetitPotam with ntlmrelayx to relay into LDAP access on the DC, enumerating Defender exclusion directories, and exploiting ESC13.

Did you know attackers can register scheduled tasks configured with a custom handler (COM) to hide the full path of their payload? In my revisited post I explore (source code) how it is possible to register a task using the IComHandlerAction interface:
