Author: @Cerbersec
Interceptor is a kernel driver focused on tampering with EDR/AV solutions in kernel space by patching kernel callbacks and hooking IRPs. Interceptor was made as part of an internship at NVISO Security's Red Team. The associated blogposts can be found here (kernel karnage).
In 2022, Kernel Karnage was presented at SANS Pen Test HackFest, prompting the release of this repository to the public as well as the following demos:
Requirements:
Build steps:
git clone https://github.com/NVISO-ARES/Interceptor.gitThe driver can be installed on machines which have Driver Signature Enforcement (DSE) disabled or are in test signing mode. For a solution to disable DSE see here. Alternative options include signing the driver with a valid code signing certificate.
Note: Machines with Secure Boot or Hypervisor-Protected Code Integrity (HVCI) enabled are not vulnerable
The driver can be created and started from a command prompt or PowerShell (mind the spaces):
sc create Interceptor type= kernel binPath= C:\Path\To\Driver\Interceptor.sys
sc start Interceptor
sc stop Interceptor
sc delete Interceptor
