Function Index to real function address:

realAddress = (PVOID)ntTable[FunctionIndex]

Find table address in a driver

Because nt!KeServiceDescriptorTable is exported by kernel, we can get its address in the program

UNICODE_STRING routineName;
RtlInitUnicodeString(&routineName, L"KeServiceDescriptorTable");
pServiceDescriptorTable = (SSDTStruct*)MmGetSystemRoutineAddress(&routineName);

Then we can get the address of nt!KeServiceDescriptorTableShadow by add the offset (like previously windbg shows)

pServiceDescriptorTableShadow = (PVOID)((ULONG_PTR)pServiceDescriptorTable + 0x40)

Then Get the addresses of two tables

pNtTable = pServiceDescriptorTable;
pW32kTable = (PVOID)((ULONG_PTR)pServiceDescriptorTable + 0x10)

Function Index to real function address:

readAddress = (ULONG_PTR)(ntTable[FunctionIndex] >> 4) + SSDT(Shadow)BaseAddress;

Find table address in a driver

Find nt!KeServiceDescriptorTable and nt!KeServiceDescriptorTableShadow in kernel function nt!KiSystemServiceStart

0: kd> u nt!KiSystemServiceStart
nt!KiSystemServiceStart:
fffff800`03e9575e 4889a3d8010000  mov     qword ptr [rbx+1D8h],rsp
fffff800`03e95765 8bf8            mov     edi,eax
fffff800`03e95767 c1ef07          shr     edi,7
fffff800`03e9576a 83e720          and     edi,20h
fffff800`03e9576d 25ff0f0000      and     eax,0FFFh
nt!KiSystemServiceRepeat:
fffff800`03e95772 4c8d15c7202300  lea     r10,[nt!KeServiceDescriptorTable (fffff800`040c7840)]
fffff800`03e95779 4c8d1d00212300  lea     r11,[nt!KeServiceDescriptorTableShadow

As shown above, we can search the whole kernel address from the kernel base for KiSystemServiceStart 's pattern

const unsigned char KiSystemServiceStartPattern[] = { 
    0x8B, 0xF8,                     // mov edi,eax
    0xC1, 0xEF, 0x07,               // shr edi,7
    0x83, 0xE7, 0x20,               // and edi,20h
    0x25, 0xFF, 0x0F, 0x00, 0x00    // and eax,0fffh  
};

bool found = false;
ULONG KiSSSOffset;
for(KiSSSOffset = 0; KiSSSOffset < kernelSize - signatureSize; KiSSSOffset++)
{
    if(RtlCompareMemory(
        ((unsigned char*)kernelBase + KiSSSOffset), 
        KiSystemServiceStartPattern, signatureSize) == signatureSize)
    {
        found = true;
        break;
    }
}
if(!found)
    return NULL;

After find the target function, we can retrieve the address of nt!KeServiceDescriptorTableShadow in the instruction:

4c8d1d00212300  lea     r11,[nt!KeServiceDescriptorTableShadow

ULONG_PTR addressAfterPattern = kernelBase + kiSSSOffset + signatureSize
ULONG_PTR address = addressAfterPattern + 7 // Skip lea r10,[nt!KeServiceDescriptorTable]
LONG relativeOffset = 0;
// lea r11, KeServiceDescriptorTableShadow
if((*(unsigned char*)address == 0x4c) &&
   (*(unsigned char*)(address + 1) == 0x8d) &&
   (*(unsigned char*)(address + 2) == 0x1d))
{
    relativeOffset = *(LONG*)(address + 3);
}
if(relativeOffset == 0)
    return NULL;

SSDTStruct* shadow = (SSDTStruct*)( address + relativeOffset + 7 );

Then we can get the addresses of nt!KiServiceTable(SSDT) and win32k!W32pServiceTable(SSDT Shadow)

PVOID ntTable = (PVOID)shadow;
PVOID win32kTable = (PVOID)((ULONG_PTR)shadow + 0x20);    // Offset showed in Windbg

Find the base address of ntoskrnl.exe and win32k.sys

First, we use the undocumented function ZwQuerySystemInformation with parameter of SystemModuleInformation to get information of system modules

// Get SystemInfo size first
ZwQuerySystemInformation(SystemModuleInformation,
                      &SystemInfoBufferSize,
                      0,
                      &SystemInfoBufferSize);
// Allocate buffer for system info
pSystemInfoBuffer = (PSYSTEM_MODULE_INFORMATION)ExAllocatePool(NonPagedPool, SystemInfoBufferSize * 2);
// Query SystemIfno
status = ZwQuerySystemInformation(SystemModuleInformation,
             pSystemInfoBuffer,
             SystemInfoBufferSize * 2,
             &SystemInfoBufferSize);

while the struct of SYSTEM_MODULE_INFORMATION is

typedef struct _SYSTEM_MODULE_INFORMATION
{
    ULONG Count;
    SYSTEM_MODULE_ENTRY Module[0];
} SYSTEM_MODULE_INFORMATION, *PSYSTEM_MODULE_INFORMATION;

typedef struct _SYSTEM_MODULE_ENTRY
{
    HANDLE Section;
    PVOID MappedBase;
    PVOID ImageBase;
    ULONG ImageSize;
    ULONG Flags;
    USHORT LoadOrderIndex;
    USHORT InitOrderIndex;
    USHORT LoadCount;
    USHORT OffsetToFileName;
    UCHAR FullPathName[256];
} SYSTEM_MODULE_ENTRY, *PSYSTEM_MODULE_ENTRY;

Usually the module ntoskrnl.exe is always the first module in the buffer, which isModule[0], so:

PVOID ntBase = pSystemInfoBuffer->Module[0].ImageBase;

But the position of win32k.sys in the buffer is not sure, so we have to traverse the buffer to find it by compare the FullPathName field of each SYSTEM_MODULE_ENTRY with "win32k.sys"

PSYSTEM_MODULE_ENTRY moduleInfo = pSystemInfoBuffer->Module;
UNICODE_STRING win32kPath = RTL_CONSTANT_STRING(L"\\SystemRoot\\system32\\win32k.sys");
UNICODE_STRING moduleName;
ANSI_STRING ansiModuleName;
while ( TRUE )
{
    RtlInitAnsiString( &ansiModuleName, (PCSZ)moduleInfo->FullPathName );
    RtlAnsiStringToUnicodeString( &moduleName, &ansiModuleName, TRUE );
    if ( RtlCompareUnicodeString( &win32kPath, &moduleName, TRUE ) == 0)
    {
        PVOID win32kBase = moduleInfo->ImageBase;
        break;
    }
    moduleInfo = moduleInfo + 1;    // Iterate to next module entry
}

Find SSDT function index by function name

Index in ntdll.dll

Almost all SSDT function have a stub function which has the same name and is exported by NTDLL.DLL

eg. the first few lines of user-mode function NtCreateFile exported by NTDLL.DLL (You have to attach to user-mode process to view symbols in ntdll)

0: kd> u ntdll!NtCreateFile
ntdll!ZwCreateFile:
00000000`774d1860 4c8bd1          mov     r10,rcx
00000000`774d1863 b852000000      mov     eax,52h        # This is the SSDT index 
00000000`774d1868 0f05            syscall
00000000`774d186a c3              ret
00000000`774d186b 0f1f440000      nop     dword ptr [rax+rax]

As above shows, mov eax, 52h transfers the system call number to EAX, and call syscall to trap into the kernel, then kernel will use the number 52h to find corresponding kernel function in SSDT

0: kd> dd /c 1 nt!KiServiceTable l53    # Function index begin from 0

fffff800`0419e410 c744247020000000 mov     dword ptr [rsp+70h],20h

SO, we can get any SSDT function's index from its name by looking into its user-mode stub function exported by NTDLL.DLL!

Get SSDT index from ntdll.dll

First we must read ntdll.dll into memory

UNICODE_STRING FileName;
OBJECT_ATTRIBUTES ObjectAttributes;
RtlInitUnicodeString(&FileName, L"\\SystemRoot\\system32\\ntdll.dll");
InitializeObjectAttributes(&ObjectAttributes, &FileName,
                           OBJ_CASE_INSENSITIVE | OBJ_KERNEL_HANDLE,
                           NULL, NULL);

if(KeGetCurrentIrql() != PASSIVE_LEVEL)
{
    return STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL;
}

HANDLE FileHandle;
IO_STATUS_BLOCK IoStatusBlock;
// Open ntdll.dll file 
NTSTATUS NtStatus = ZwCreateFile(&FileHandle,        
                                 GENERIC_READ,
                                 &ObjectAttributes,
                                 &IoStatusBlock, NULL,
                                 FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
                                 FILE_SHARE_READ,
                                 FILE_OPEN,
                                 FILE_SYNCHRONOUS_IO_NONALERT,
                                 NULL, 0);
if(NT_SUCCESS(NtStatus))
{
    // Get ntdll.dll file size
    FILE_STANDARD_INFORMATION StandardInformation = { 0 };
    NtStatus = ZwQueryInformationFile(FileHandle, &IoStatusBlock, &StandardInformation, sizeof(FILE_STANDARD_INFORMATION), FileStandardInformation);
    if(NT_SUCCESS(NtStatus))
    {
        FileSize = StandardInformation.EndOfFile.LowPart;
        FileData = (unsigned char*)RtlAllocateMemory(true, FileSize);

        LARGE_INTEGER ByteOffset;
        ByteOffset.LowPart = ByteOffset.HighPart = 0;
        // Read ntdll.dll into buffer
        NtStatus = ZwReadFile(FileHandle,
                              NULL, NULL, NULL,
                              &IoStatusBlock,
                              FileData,
                              FileSize,
                              &ByteOffset, NULL);
    }

    ZwClose(FileHandle);
}

Then get the real function address of any exported function .

To do this, we have to get its Export Address Table from its PE header

 //Verify DOS Header
PIMAGE_DOS_HEADER pdh = (PIMAGE_DOS_HEADER)FileData;
//Verify PE Header
PIMAGE_NT_HEADERS pnth = (PIMAGE_NT_HEADERS)(FileData + pdh->e_lfanew);
//Verify Export Directory
PIMAGE_DATA_DIRECTORY pdd = NULL;
if(pnth->OptionalHeader.Magic == IMAGE_NT_OPTIONAL_HDR64_MAGIC)
    pdd = ((PIMAGE_NT_HEADERS64)pnth)->OptionalHeader.DataDirectory;
else
    pdd = ((PIMAGE_NT_HEADERS32)pnth)->OptionalHeader.DataDirectory;
ULONG ExportDirRva = pdd[IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_EXPORT].VirtualAddress;
ULONG ExportDirSize = pdd[IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_EXPORT].Size;
ULONG ExportDirOffset = RvaToOffset(pnth, ExportDirRva, FileSize);

//Read Export Directory
PIMAGE_EXPORT_DIRECTORY ExportDir = (PIMAGE_EXPORT_DIRECTORY)(FileData + ExportDirOffset);
ULONG NumberOfNames = ExportDir->NumberOfNames;
ULONG AddressOfFunctionsOffset = RvaToOffset(pnth, ExportDir->AddressOfFunctions, FileSize);
ULONG AddressOfNameOrdinalsOffset = RvaToOffset(pnth, ExportDir->AddressOfNameOrdinals, FileSize);
ULONG AddressOfNamesOffset = RvaToOffset(pnth, ExportDir->AddressOfNames, FileSize);

ULONG* AddressOfFunctions = (ULONG*)(FileData + AddressOfFunctionsOffset);
USHORT* AddressOfNameOrdinals = (USHORT*)(FileData + AddressOfNameOrdinalsOffset);
ULONG* AddressOfNames = (ULONG*)(FileData + AddressOfNamesOffset);

and get the file offset of the function address from its name

// Find RVA of exported function whose name is ExportName
ULONG ExportOffset = PE_ERROR_VALUE;
for(ULONG i = 0; i < NumberOfNames; i++)
{
    ULONG CurrentNameOffset = RvaToOffset(pnth, AddressOfNames[i], FileSize);
    if(CurrentNameOffset == PE_ERROR_VALUE)
        continue;
    const char* CurrentName = (const char*)(FileData + CurrentNameOffset);
    ULONG CurrentFunctionRva = AddressOfFunctions[AddressOfNameOrdinals[i]];
    if(CurrentFunctionRva >= ExportDirRva && CurrentFunctionRva < ExportDirRva + ExportDirSize)
        continue; //we ignore forwarded exports
    //compare the export name to the requested export
    if(!strcmp(CurrentName, ExportName))  
    {
        // Convert function RVA to offset
        ExportOffset = RvaToOffset(pnth, CurrentFunctionRva, FileSize);
        break;
    }
}

Then get the real address of exported function in memory ( in ntdll.dll )

ExportFunctionAddress = (PVOID)((ULONG_PTR)FileData + ExportOffset)

finally search the whole function for pattern mov eax, xx, retrieve the SSDT index

for(int i = 0; i < 32 && ExportOffset + i < FileSize; i++)
{
    if(ExportData[i] == 0xC2 || ExportData[i] == 0xC3)  //RET
        break;
    if(ExportData[i] == 0xB8)  //mov eax,XX    -- b8 FFFFFFFF
    {
        SsdtOffset = *(int*)(ExportData + i + 1);
        break;
    }
}

Combine index with SSDT(Shadow)

x64

realNtFunction = (PVOID)(ntTable[SsdtOffset] >> 4 + ntTable);

x86

realNtFunction = (PVOID)(ntTable[SsdtOffset]);

Shadow is similar

Hook SSDT

!!! Yon have to first disable PatchGuard or enable DebugMode on your system !!! 😀

In order to unhook SSDT in future, define some hook structs as below (HOOKOPCODES is our shellcode for x64 hook)

#pragma pack(push,1)        // This is very important !!!!
struct HOOKOPCODES
{
#ifdef _WIN64
    unsigned short int mov;
#else
    unsigned char mov;
#endif
    ULONG_PTR addr;
    unsigned char push;
    unsigned char ret;
};
#pragma pack(pop)

typedef struct HOOKSTRUCT
{
    ULONG_PTR addr;
    HOOKOPCODES hook;
    unsigned char orig[sizeof(HOOKOPCODES)];
    //SSDT extension
    int SSDTindex;
    LONG SSDTold;
    LONG SSDTnew;
    ULONG_PTR SSDTaddress;
}HOOK, *PHOOK;

Disable Write Protection

Because SSDT are read-only kernel memory, so you have to disable write protection before modifying it , we use MDL to do this. Below is the helper function to copy data to any read-only kernel memory

NTSTATUS SuperCopyMemory(
    IN VOID UNALIGNED* Destination, 
    IN CONST VOID UNALIGNED* Source, 
    IN ULONG Length)
{
    //Change memory properties.
    PMDL g_pmdl = IoAllocateMdl(Destination, Length, 0, 0, NULL);
    if(!g_pmdl)
        return STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL;
    MmBuildMdlForNonPagedPool(g_pmdl);
    unsigned int* Mapped = (unsigned int*)MmMapLockedPages(g_pmdl, KernelMode);
    if(!Mapped)
    {
        IoFreeMdl(g_pmdl);
        return STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL;
    }
    KIRQL kirql = KeRaiseIrqlToDpcLevel();
    RtlCopyMemory(Mapped, Source, Length);
    KeLowerIrql(kirql);
    //Restore memory properties.
    MmUnmapLockedPages((PVOID)Mapped, g_pmdl);
    IoFreeMdl(g_pmdl);
    return STATUS_SUCCESS;
}

Also, we can modify the "WP" flags of the cr0register to enable or disable kernel memory write protection

To disable WP:

KIRQL DisableWP(){
    KIRQL irql=KeRaiseIrqlToDpcLevel();
    ULONG_PTR cr0=__readcr0();
#ifdef _AMD64_        
    cr0 &= 0xfffffffffffeffff;
#else
    cr0 &= 0xfffeffff;
#endif
    __writecr0(cr0);
    _disable();    // Disable interrupts
    return irql;
}

there we can modify the kernel memory without access violation. 🧐

To enable WP after writing:

void EnableWP(KIRQL irql){
	ULONG_PTR cr0=__readcr0();
	cr0 |= 0x10000;
	_enable();		// Enable interrupts
	__writecr0(cr0);
	KeLowerIrql(irql);
}

x86 Hook

Just replace the SSDT index with your own function

PVOID realNtFunction = ntTable[FunctionIndex];

hHook = (HOOK)RtlAllocateMemory(true, sizeof(HOOK));
hHook.SSDTold = realNtFunction;
hHook.SSDTnew = YourFunction;
hHook.SSDTindex = FunctionIndex;
hHook.SSDTaddress = realNtFunction;

SuperCopyMemory(&realNtFunction, YourFunction);

x64 Hook

In x64 platform, because realFunction = ntTable[FunctionIndex] >> 4 + ntTable, the only thing you can modify is the value of ntTable[FunctionIndex], and it's long type(32 bit), which means you can only jump within the range -2GB + ntTable ~ 2GB + ntTable, Obviously the address is inside the ntoskrnl.exe module address space. So to jump to the function located in our own module, we have to make a "indirect jump".

Jump from SSDT to our stub function, then jump to our real function. Below is the stub shellcode

movabs rax, xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ; 48B8 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (move our real function to rax)
push rax ; 50
ret ; c3 (return to rax, which is our function)

As you can see, the shellcode is only 12 bytes, so we only need to find a executable memory block which is larger than 12 bytes. Well in every code page(4KB size) there are many nop instruction where we can insert our shellcode, So we try to insert the shellcode into the code page where the real kernel function to be hooked is.

Get the ntoskrnl.exe's section header first

ULONG dwRva = (ULONG)((unsigned char*)realNtFunction - (unsigned char*)ntBase);
IMAGE_DOS_HEADER* pdh = (IMAGE_DOS_HEADER*)ntBase;
if(pdh->e_magic != IMAGE_DOS_SIGNATURE)
    return 0;
IMAGE_NT_HEADERS* pnth = (IMAGE_NT_HEADERS*)((unsigned char*)ntBase + pdh->e_lfanew);
if(pnth->Signature != IMAGE_NT_SIGNATURE)
    return 0;
IMAGE_SECTION_HEADER* psh = IMAGE_FIRST_SECTION(pnth);

find out in which section the real function is

static ULONG RvaToSection(IMAGE_NT_HEADERS* pNtHdr, ULONG dwRVA)
{
    USHORT wSections;
    PIMAGE_SECTION_HEADER pSectionHdr;
    pSectionHdr = IMAGE_FIRST_SECTION(pNtHdr);
    wSections = pNtHdr->FileHeader.NumberOfSections;
    for(int i = 0; i < wSections; i++)
    {
        if(pSectionHdr[i].VirtualAddress <= dwRVA &&
           (pSectionHdr[i].VirtualAddress + pSectionHdr[i].Misc.VirtualSize) > dwRVA)
                return i;
    }
    return (ULONG) - 1;
}

int section = RvaToSection(pnth, dwRva);
if(section == -1)
    return 0;

CodeSize = psh[section].SizeOfRawData;
CodeStart = (PVOID)((ULONG_PTR)ntBase + psh[section].VirtualAddress);

then try to find a at least 12 bytes large nop block in the code page

unsigned char* Code = (unsigned char*)CodeStart;
unsigned int CaveSize = sizeof(HOOKOPCODES);
for(unsigned int i = 0, j = 0; i < CodeSize; i++)
{
    if(Code[i] == 0x90 || Code[i] == 0xCC)  //NOP or INT3
        j++;
    else
        j = 0;
    if(j == CaveSize)
        ShellcodeCave = (PVOID)((ULONG_PTR)CodeStart + i - CaveSize + 1);
}

Next we need to write the shellcode to the cave address we just got, and insert our own function address

initialize the hook struct

//allocate structure
PHOOK hook = (PHOOK)RtlAllocateMemory(true, sizeof(HOOK));
//set hooking address
hook->addr = ShellcodeCave;        // Store the cave address
//set hooking opcode
#ifdef _WIN64
hook->hook.mov = 0xB848;
#else
hook->hook.mov = 0xB8;
#endif
hook->hook.addr = (ULONG_PTR)YourFunction;    // Insert our own function
hook->hook.push = 0x50;
hook->hook.ret = 0xc3;
//set original data
RtlCopyMemory(&hook->orig, (const void*)addr, sizeof(HOOKOPCODES));

write to the cave address

SuperCopyMemory((void*)ShellcodeCave, &hook->hook, sizeof(HOOK));

After that, we can change the corresponding SSDT offset to point to shellcode cave.

You have to convert cave address to the relative offset to SSDT first !!

oldOffset = ntTable[FunctionIndex];
newOffset = (LONG)((ULONG_PTR)ShellcodeCave - ntTable);
newOffset = (newOffset << 4) | oldOffset & 0xF;

update SSDT

hook.SSDTold = oldOffset;
hook.SSDTnew = newOffset;
hook.SSDTIndex = FunctionIndex;
hook.SSDTaddress = realNtFunction;

SuperCopyMemory(&ntTable[FunctionIndex], newOffset);

DONE!

Hook Shadow SSDT

The steps of hooking Shadow is similar with SSDT hook, except that you have to attach to a user-mode GUI process before getting the base address of the Shadow.

// Get the process id of the "winlogon.exe" process
GetProcessIdByName(ProcessId, "winlogon.exe");
PsLookupProcessByProcessId( ProcessId, &Process );
APC_STATE oldApc;
KeStackAttachProcess(Process, &oldApc);

// Find Shadows SSDT and do dirty things

KeUnstackDetachProcess(&oldApc);
