Process injection techniques written in Go.

go-inject

Process injection techniques written in Go. I've also expanded this repo to include some general offense techniques in Go.

Techniques

• Classic virtual alloc
• Heap
• Remote Thread Injection
• APC Queue Code Injection
• UUID Injection - Used by Lazarus 2021
• Hook detection
• Keylogger
• Hollow
• API Hashing

Usage

Use msfvenom or any other tool to generate hex encoded shellcode:

msfvenom -p windows/x64/exec CMD=calc.exe -f hex

Place hex encoded payload within one of the example .go files replacing the content of the payload variable. You can cross compile on Linux using the following: Linux:

env GOOS=windows go build -ldflags="-s -w" -trimpath examples/x64/uuid/uuid.go

Detection

I've written a few simple yara rules to detect binaries using go-inject:

Yara ruleset

I also recommend using Sysmon event ids 8 (CreateRemoteThread) and 25 (ProcessTampering) for detection.
