DEF CON 22 (2014),
Aug. 9, 2014, 5 p.m.
(60 minutes).
Windows APIs are often a blackbox with poor documentation, taking input and spewing output with little visibility on what actually happens in the background. By analyzing (and abusing) the underlying functionality of these seemingly benign APIs, we can effectively manipulate Windows into performing stealthy custom attacks bypassing the latest in protective defenses. In this talk, we’ll get Windows to play with itself nonstop while revealing 0day persistence, previously unknown DLL injection techniques, and Windows API tips and tricks that any good penetration tester and/or malware developer should know. :) To top it all off, a custom HTTP beaconing backdoor will be released leveraging the newly released persistence and injection techniques. So much Windows abuse, so little time.
