Finding OEP -- Magic Of Patterns

BPX GETVERSION did not gave me any helpfull hints ?
One crazy idea came in to my mind ... when we first break on GETVERSION we will be in packed dll file.What i did was to find the ep of packed dll file [use LordPE].I noted that this real ep was some lines down GETVERSION .... and i noted the pattern ...

When we break second time on GETVERSION ,we will be in unpacked dll file ... so just look some lines down and you can see the magic pattern. So this is our OEP ......... man i am lucky !

BPMB CS:60090DEC X -- After First break on GerVersion API
Now dump it using JMP EIP trick ... correct hex values EBFE --> 558B

Fixing IAT

Now run ImpRec and select process iexplorer.Now pick up dll "FCShare.dll"
OEP = 60090DEC - 60080000 = 10DEC
Click "IAT Auto Search" -- "GetImports" ..
We can see that about 10 APIs are not valid ?
And if we use Trace Level1 API will be filled but it is the false one.
Here Armadilo is fooling Trace utilites ... So we must follow hard way.
First note down all invalid pointers : example : 00C36AB1

Now break in the FCShare.dll module [just use some API]
and give this command ....

u 00C36AB1

This will show ..

015F:00C36AB1 E819000000 CALL 00C36ACF <-- Armadilo Calls some other API
015F:00C36AB6 C6055811C50001 MOV BYTE PTR [00C51158],01
015F:00C36ABD E8D7AA0000 CALL 00C41599 <-- Armadilo Stuff
015F:00C36AC2 FF742404 PUSH DWORD PTR [ESP+04]

015F:00C36ACC C20400 RET 0004

It is seen that Armadilo does something first and then it calls our real API last.

All invalid pointers can be filled like this ... now fix dumpfile ....

Working Dump File :

Now replace orginal packed file with dump file .... and try to save flash or take a snapshot ..
It will show a crazy messagebox "Is the program protected ?"
What the heck is going on ???
Problem is that one API returns false ..

015F:60082A8C 51 PUSH ECX
015F:60082A8D 688CD20A60 PUSH 600AD28C --> "USERNAME"
015F:60082A92 AA STOSB

015F:60082A99 85C0 TEST EAX,EAX
015F:60082A9B 7526 JNZ 60082AC3

If we make EAX = 01 .. program works finely in registered mode.

One easy method is to change "USERNAME" --> "TEMP" Offset = 2D28C
So that GetEnvironmentVariableA API will never fail ..

Quickly restoring the patch in memory avoids page fault.
So each section act as an decryption key.

Patch :

Write String "Asshole" at end of file FCShare.dll and run it ... we can
see that there is no page fault.So that part is not part of key.

File offset : 46F60
In memory :

015F:6011CF60 41 73 73 68 6F 6C 65 00-00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Asshole.........
015F:6011CF70 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00-00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................

So we will use this place to write our code.

Winnt.h

#define PAGE_NOACCESS 0x01
#define PAGE_READONLY 0x02
#define PAGE_READWRITE 0x04
#define PAGE_WRITECOPY 0x08
#define PAGE_EXECUTE 0x10
#define PAGE_EXECUTE_READ 0x20
#define PAGE_EXECUTE_READWRITE 0x40
#define PAGE_EXECUTE_WRITECOPY 0x80
#define PAGE_GUARD 0x100
#define PAGE_NOCACHE 0x200
#define PAGE_WRITECOMBINE 0x400

Text1.Section
Flag : 60000020 -- Contains executable code + readable
Offset : 2DF

The section we where looking to patch have only Execute and Readonly permission.So we can't use runtime patching directly [ we will end up in page fault ].But there are loop holes ... If we can use some api with Ring0 prvg we can bypass this protection.

How To Patch This Baby :

What we are going to do is to change OEP to 6011CF40 using hex editor and quickly restore its OEP in memory so that Armadillo will think every thing is OKand do our stuff and then jump to real OEP

Note : I get a PAge Fault while closing IE ? But program is working in registered mode..

Special Note to Armadillo programers : You $%#$%^! ,you have no right
to control my PC ... which is my private property.Kick Ass $%^$#%!
