The source code for the xor encoder is public and part of the Pex.pm module in the Releases section of the metasploit.com web site. > The shellcode binds cmd.exe to 135, and the attacker sends the Not so, the shellcode creates a new socket on port 4444 and binds cmd.exe. > And the analysis of the exploit itself: (the comments became sparse > when I realized that the code was ripped from HalVar (URL is below)). The code was not ripped from HalVar, but the universal loader code was borrowed from a friend (and tweaked). As you can see from the comments below, the ScanForApi stuff wasn't originally from HalVar or even LSD. The hashing algorithm I use has four-byte keys, HalVar used two-byte keys. There are a number of other huge differences in the bindshell code (since I wrote mine from scratch). ---- .FindKernel32Base: mov eax, [fs:ecx] ; find kernelbase mov eax,[eax+0x0C] ; stolen from LSD who stole it from VX... it's a pity ---- The shellcode and xor encoder source code is available from the metasploit.com web site. The relevant URL's are: (slightly different from the version used in dcom.c) http://www.metasploit.com/sc/win32_bind.asm (the LongXorDecoder routine) http://www.metasploit.com/tools/Pex.pm Blah.
