Are you a rootkit developer?

Posted by genesisdatabase on Thursday, 17 February 2011 , under , , , , , , , , , , , , , | comments (0)



Are you a rootkit developer?  Can you fulfill my idea in the Ideas and Challenges page?  I am looking for some articles or any resources that can help me solve the following.


  • Hide a process

  • Hide a file

  • Hide a registry

  • Hide a port

  • Contact userland application, vice versa

  • Keystroke logging


If you by chance come across any articles or books related to this please do let me know!

Creating your own driver loader in C | Driver Loader | Source Code | Rootkit




Technically, there's 2 way of loading a rootkit according to Greg Hoglund when he wrote Rootkits: Subverting the Windows Kernel book.  One is called The Quick-And-Dirty Way to Load a Driver.  This method allows you to "load a driver into the kernel without having to create any registry keys.  "Pageable" refers to memory that can be swapped to disk. If a driver is pageable, any part of the driver could be paged out (that is, swapped from memory to disk). Sometimes when memory is paged out, it cannot be accessed; an attempt to do so will result in the infamous Blue Screen of Death (a system crash)" by using an undocumented API call.
