# PythonForWindows
|
|
|
|
PythonForWindows is a base of code aimed to make interaction with `Windows` (on X86/X64) easier (for both 32 and 64 bits Python).
|
|
Its goal is to offer abstractions around some of the OS features in a (I hope) pythonic way.
|
|
It also tries to make the barrier between python and native execution thinner in both ways.
|
|
There is no external dependencies but it relies heavily on the `ctypes` module.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some of this code is clean (IMHO) and some parts are just a wreck that works for now.
|
|
Let's say that the codebase evolves with my needs and my curiosity.
|
|
|
|
Complete online documentation is available [here][ONLINE_DOC]
|
|
You can find some examples of code in the [samples directory][SAMPLE_DIR] or [online][ONLINE_SAMPLE].
|
|
|
|
Parts of PythonForWindows are used in the [LKD project][LKD_GITHUB].
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
### Processes / Threads
|
|
|
|
PythonForWindows offers objects around processes and allows you to:
|
|
|
|
- Retrieve basic process informations (pid, name, ppid, bitness, ...)
|
|
- Perform basic interprocess operation (allocation, create thread, read/write memory)
|
|
- Explore the PEB (Process Environment Block)
|
|
- Execute `native` and `Python` code in the context of a process.
|
|
|
|
I try my best to make those features available for every cross-bitness processes (`32 <-> 64` in both ways).
|
|
This involves relying on non-documented `Windows` functions/behaviours and also injecting code in the 64bits world of a `Syswow64` process.
|
|
All those operations are also available for the `current_process`.
|
|
|
|
You can also make some operation on threads (suspend/resume/wait/get(or set) context/ kill)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### IAT Hook
|
|
|
|
This codebase is born from my need to have IAT hooks implemented in Python.
|
|
So the features is present (See [online documentation][ONLINE_IATHOOK] about IAT hooks).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Winproxy
|
|
|
|
A wrapper around some Windows functions. Arguments name and order are the same,
|
|
but some have default values and the functions raise exception on call error (I don't like 'if' around all my call).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Native execution
|
|
|
|
To make the barrier between `native` and `Python` code,
|
|
PythonForWindows allows you to create native function callable from Python (thanks `ctypes`) and also embed
|
|
a simple x86/x64 assembler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Other stuff
|
|
|
|
Some code are just explorations and need improvements like:
|
|
|
|
- Wintrust
|
|
- WMI
|
|
- Exception
|
|
- COM
