pwnlib.memleak — Helper class for leaking memory

class pwnlib.memleak.MemLeak(f, search_range=20, reraise=True, relative=False)

MemLeak is a caching and heuristic tool for exploiting memory leaks.

It can be used as a decorator, around functions of the form:

def some_leaker(addr):

… return data_as_string_or_None

It will cache leaked memory (which requires either non-randomized static data or a continouous session). If required, dynamic or known data can be set with the set-functions, but this is usually not required. If a byte cannot be recovered, it will try to leak nearby bytes in the hope that the byte is recovered as a side-effect.

参数:

• f (function) – The leaker function.
• search_range (int) – How many bytes to search backwards in case an address does not work.
• reraise (bool) – Whether to reraise call pwnlib.log.warning() in case the leaker function throws an exception.

Example

>>> import pwnlib
>>> binsh = pwnlib.util.misc.read('/bin/sh')
>>> @pwnlib.memleak.MemLeak
... def leaker(addr):
...     print "leaking 0x%x" % addr
...     return binsh[addr:addr+4]
>>> leaker.s(0)[:4]
leaking 0x0
leaking 0x4
'\x7fELF'
>>> leaker[:4]
'\x7fELF'
>>> hex(leaker.d(0))
'0x464c457f'
>>> hex(leaker.clearb(1))
'0x45'
>>> hex(leaker.d(0))
leaking 0x1
'0x464c457f'
>>> @pwnlib.memleak.MemLeak
... def leaker_nonulls(addr):
...     print "leaking 0x%x" % addr
...     if addr & 0xff == 0:
...         return None
...     return binsh[addr:addr+4]
>>> leaker_nonulls.d(0) == None
leaking 0x0
True
>>> leaker_nonulls[0x100:0x104] == binsh[0x100:0x104]
leaking 0x100
leaking 0xff
leaking 0x103
True

>>> memory = {-4+i: c for i,c in enumerate('wxyzABCDE')}
>>> def relative_leak(index):
...     return memory.get(index, None)
>>> leak = pwnlib.memleak.MemLeak(relative_leak, relative = True)
>>> leak[-1:2]
'zAB'

static NoNewlines(function)

Wrapper for leak functions such that addresses which contain newline bytes are not leaked.

This is useful if the address which is used for the leak is provided by e.g. fgets().

static NoNulls(function)

Wrapper for leak functions such that addresses which contain NULL bytes are not leaked.

This is useful if the address which is used for the leak is read in via a string-reading function like scanf("%s") or smilar.

static NoWhitespace(function)

Wrapper for leak functions such that addresses which contain whitespace bytes are not leaked.

This is useful if the address which is used for the leak is read in via e.g. scanf().

static String(function)

Wrapper for leak functions which leak strings, such that a NULL terminator is automaticall added.

This is useful if the data leaked is printed out as a NULL-terminated string, via e.g. printf().
