About

This is a small POC to show an interesting design weakness in VMProtect 2 which can aid an attacker in such a way that reading memory can be manipulated in a centralized way. In this POC all READQ/DW/B virtual instructions are hooked, when virtualized integrity check routines try and read unwriteable sections, the pointer is changed to an untouched clone of the driver. This means all inlined virtualized integrity checks can be bypassed with a few lines of code. This is not possible without the aid of VMProtect 2's design... So im refering to having reusable vm handlers as a design flaw...

note: not all integrity checks are virtualized, there were at least one other outside of virtualization

How To Update

These vm handler indexes are for EasyAntiCheat.sys 6/23/2021, when the driver gets re-vmprotected these vm handler indexes need to be updated.

//
// vm handler indexes for READQ...
//

inline u8 g_readq_idxs[] = { 247, 215, 169, 159, 71, 60, 55, 43, 23 };

//
// vm handler indexes for READDW
//

inline u8 g_readdw_idxs[] = { 218, 180, 179, 178, 163, 137, 92, 22, 12 };

//
// vm handler indexes for READB
//

inline u8 g_readb_idxs[] = { 249, 231, 184, 160, 88, 85, 48, 9, 2 };

EAC_VM_HANDLE_OFFSET contains the offset from the module base to the vm handler table, as of right now EAC only uses a single virtual machine in their VMProtect config so there is only a single vm handler table...

EAC_SHA1_OFFSET contains the offset from the module base to the sha1 function... you can locate this function by searching for SHA1 magic numbers: 0x67452301, 0xEFCDAB89 0x98BADCFE, 0x10325476, 0xC3D2E1F0. These crypto functions should be virtualized so their constant values cannot be located using IDA --> search "immidate values".

EAC_IMAGE_BASE contains the "ImageBase" value inside of the OptionalHeaders field of the NT headers... This value gets updated with the actual module base of the driver once loaded into memory... I didnt want to read it off disk so I just made it a macro here...

#define EAC_VM_HANDLE_OFFSET 0xE93D
#define EAC_SHA1_OFFSET 0x4C00
#define EAC_IMAGE_BASE 0x140000000
