Therefore, we can hijack that DLL and execute our own code to intercept and terminate the malware. Once loaded the exploit dll will check if the current directory is "C:\Windows\System32", if not we grab our process ID and terminate. Leverage RansomLord v3.1 for DLL generation, while written as a proof-of-concept to specifically defeat ransomware, it can also be used to generate DLLs to try an exploit other types of malwares. All basic tests were conducted successfully in a virtual machine environment. Family: DarkGateLoader Type: PE32 MD5: afe012ed0d96abfe869b9e26ea375824 SHA256: 18d87c514ff25f817eac613c5f2ad39b21b6e04b6da6dbe8291f04549da2c290 Other vulnerable samples: cad102af0d2709fd57f62d9cce9ba174 ca2ef9d3146341428657295892894170 3c609ac6b2de29578a2383d71e12caa9 Vuln ID: MVID-2024-0685 Disclosure: 06/05/2024 Exploit/PoC: 1) Download RansomLord v3.1 https://github.com/malvuln/RansomLord 2) Locate the x32 urlmon.dll entry using the -m flag (DLL Map) 3) Use -g flag (Generate Exploit) to output an x32 DLL urlmon.dll, based on an existing vulnerable malware in the victims list. 4) (Optional) -e flag to setup Windows event IOC logging in the registry, this will attempt to log the SHA256 hash, full path and filename.
