    I. Info

Analysis shellcode execution (excutor?) samples and try to create effectives rules to detect them
Understand the method and bypass
Before we start:


Backend knowledge


What is shellcode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shellcode
ELF file structure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_and_Linkable_Format. This tutorial is for ELF files, but PE file should be similar
ELF Analysis https://www.intezer.com/blog/malware-analysis/elf-malware-analysis-101-initial-analysis/. I'd recommend the book https://www.packtpub.com/product/learning-linux-binary-analysis/9781782167105. This book is awesome!


Tools:


Rizin and Rizin cutter
yara


Resources:


Linux malware samples which should have so many shellcode executors https://github.com/MalwareSamples/Linux-Malware-Samples
Any shellcode sample. I'm using this https://vulners.com/zdt/1337DAY-ID-31230
Virus total for some comparison
Yara ELF module for signature detection: https://yara.readthedocs.io/en/stable/modules/elf.html
A helloworld shellcode or anything. I'm using helloworld from here https://stackoverflow.com/a/24438505

II. Analysis

Create file shellcode_local.c. Local is the "local variable"

int main(void){

        char shellcode[] = "\xeb\x0b\x5f\x48\x31\xd2\x52\x5e\x6a\x3b\x58\x0f\x05\xe8\xf0\xff\xff\xff\x2f\x62\x69\x6e\x2f\x62\x61\x73\x68";
        ((void (*)())shellcode)();
        return 0;
}


Create other file shellcode_global.c.

char shellcode[] = "\xeb\x0b\x5f\x48\x31\xd2\x52\x5e\x6a\x3b\x58\x0f\x05\xe8\xf0\xff\xff\xff\x2f\x62\x69\x6e\x2f\x62\x61\x73\x68";

int main(void){
        ((void (*)())shellcode)();
        return 0;
}

Compile 2 files

gcc shellcode_local.c -o local and gcc shellcode_global.c -o global
Use Cutter to analysis

11  0x0000114d 0x0000114d 7   8    .text     ascii   /bin/bH

=> Shellcode value is pushed to registers
2. File global
int main (int argc, char **argv, char **envp);
0x00001125                55                                push    rbp

0x00001129                48 8d 15 00 2f 00 00              lea     rdx, shellcode
0x00001130                b8 00 00 00 00                    mov     eax, 0
0x00001135                ff d2                             call    rdx ; obj.shellcode(0x0, 0x0, 0x4030, 0x0)
0x00001137                b8 00 00 00 00                    mov     eax, 0
0x0000113c                5d                                pop     rbp
0x0000113d                c3                                ret
0x0000113e                66 90                             nop

Value of the shellcode is moved to RDX, and then RDX is called.
Now here is the interesting part
In the export, we are having this.
57  0x00003030 0x00004030 GLOBAL OBJ    28       shellcode

The obj shellcode in disasm. The value belongs to section .data:
;-- shellcode:
0x00004030                eb 0b                             jmp     0x403d
;-- str.H1:
0x00004031                    .string "\v_H1" ; len=5
;-- str.R_j_X:
0x00004036                    .string "R^j;X" ; len=6
0x0000403c                05 e8 f0 ff ff                    add     eax, 0xfffff0e8
0x00004041                ff 2f                             ljmp    [rdi]
;-- str.bin_bash:
0x00004042                    .string "/bin/bash" ; len=10


Thinking about detection method:


String matching using shellcode value: We try to use whole shellcode or specific part of shellcodes. This is common method
String matching using opcode value: We try to detect the call rdx and lea rdx, shellcode


Try string matching for shellcode value:


In file global, the acutal hex value of string of the shellcode is 5f 48 31 d2 52 5e 6a 3b 58 0f 05 e8 f0 ff ff ff 2f 62 69 6e 2f 62 61 73 68. The string \v_H1 is false string parsing of rizin
In file local, we have much longer value 5f 48 31 d2 52 5e 48 ba 6a 3b 58 0f 05 e8 f0 ff 48 89 45 e0 48 89 55 e8 48 b8 ff ff 2f 62 69 6e 2f 62 48 89 45 f0 c7 45 f8 61 73 68
In local, we can't use string /bin/bash because it is added with some bytes. So by comparing value of shellcode, we can select


5f 48 31 d2 52 5e
6a 3b 58 0f 05 e8 f0 ff
Our rule

import "elf"


private rule is_elf {
  condition:
    uint32(0) == 0x464c457f
}

rule shellcode_1
{
  strings:
    $1 = {5f 48 31 d2 52 5e}
    $2 = {6a 3b 58 0f 05 e8 f0 ff}
  condition:
    is_elf and all of them
}


Problems:

Shellcode is encoded / encrypted / obfuscated?
Only global variable and local variable for same shellcode makes differences
Effective way to detect all shellcode executor for new samples?


Opcode based signature


We can't do this for global and local
For same code structure, this method COULD do the work
Different compilers generate different opcode (clang and gcc)
Junk code, obfucate, encrypt, packing, ....
Just a function  call to decrypt / deobfus shellcode changes opcode structure

Check AV rewards:

=> Seem like Avast and AVG are using same signatures (In July 2016, Avast reached an agreement to buy AVG for $1.3 billion - google). And let call it Avast engine / signature, so it is very effective signature. Avast and Ikarus are having good signature[s] to detect this shellcode executor. Meanwhile Jiangmin is using string based detection -> Bypassed. Sophos could use string based signature analysis. We don't know yet.
Let's create Hellowworld shellcode and see how it goes
$cat helloworld.c 
char shellcode[] = "\xeb\x19\x31\xc0\xb0\x04\x31\xdb\xb3\x01\x59\x31\xd2\xb2\x12\xcd\x80\x31\xc0\xb0\x01\x31\xdb\xb3\x01\xcd\x80\xe8\xe2\xff\xff\xff\x20\x79\x30\x75\x20\x73\x70\x33\x34\x6b\x20\x31\x33\x33\x37\x20\x3f\x20";

int main(void){
        ((void (*)())shellcode)();
        return 0;
}

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/8956a527fe3b078d908876e94ba05abe6b9e32f2b4035da05c178ea2de0390e7?nocache=1

From the result, we can say Avast, Sophos, Ikarus are not using value of shellcode for signatures
Let's try it again but with local variable
int main(void){
    char shellcode[] = "\xeb\x19\x31\xc0\xb0\x04\x31\xdb\xb3\x01\x59\x31\xd2\xb2\x12\xcd\x80\x31\xc0\xb0\x01\x31\xdb\xb3\x01\xcd\x80\xe8\xe2\xff\xff\xff\x20\x79\x30\x75\x20\x73\x70\x33\x34\x6b\x20\x31\x33\x33\x37\x20\x3f\x20";

        ((void (*)())shellcode)();
        return 0;
}

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/2ebfff8f2f5bbbdd592a2256f2ad83849847f0d93ba3f112f9591d1213fcc5c0?nocache=1

Very impressed result of Ikarus. Meanwhile we can predict Jiangmin is using opcode method or something like that to detect shellcode.

So what do we do now?

Select section hash[es] that has / have same value? To do it, deep understanding about ELF file structure is important to select correct section.
In global, we have shellcode as exported OBJ. Use it? Need deep understanding about ELF file to write signatures of imports / exports
Use opcode (But need heavily check, comparison if we want effective signature like Avast / Ikarus)

Let's try with the Exports.
import "elf"


private rule is_elf {
  condition:
    uint32(0) == 0x464c457f
}

rule Heur_Shellcode_Executor
{
  meta:
    author = "Nong Hoang Tu"
    email = "dmknght@parrotsec.org"
    description = "Try to detect shellcode executor by exported \"shellcode\" string"
  condition:
    is_elf and for any i in (0 .. elf.symtab_entries - 1): (
      elf.symtab[i].name == "shellcode" and elf.symtab[i].type == elf.STT_OBJECT
    )
}

Our result:
Heur_Shellcode_Executor ./global
Heur_Shellcode_Executor ./helloworld

This rule detected all shellcode in global variables of us. Same result as Sophos and 1/2 job of Avast (count with our samples ofc).
Test with realworld samples, we have
