Module Overloading

A PoC based on the ideas of thewover (twitter @TheRealWover): https://twitter.com/TheRealWover/status/1193284444687392768?s=20 + my own experiments

Using: libpeconv.

Characteristics:

• Payload mapped as MEM_IMAGE, impersonating a legitimate DLL (image linked to a file on the disk)
• Sections mapped with original access rights (no RWX)
• Not connected* to the list of modules (invisible for Module32First/Module32Next)
  • may be connected if the 'classic DLL hollowing' was selected
• Only self-injection supported

Demo:

Clone:

Use recursive clone to get the repo together with all the submodules:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/hasherezade/module_overloading.git
