Extracts and decrypts inner payloads from Donut obfuscator samples by detecting loader shellcode signatures, parsing the DONUT_INSTANCE structure, and dumping DONUT_MODULE data.
A configuration and module extractor for the donut binary obfuscator
donut-decryptor checks file(s) for known signatures of the donut obfuscator's loader shellcode. If located, it will parse the shellcode to locate, decrypt, and extract the DONUT_INSTANCE structure embedded in the binary, and report pertinent configuration data. If a DONUT_MODULE is present in the binary it is decrypted and dumped to disk.
You can install donut-decryptor for usage by navigating to the root directory of the project and using pip:
cd /path/to/donut-decryptor
python -m pip install .
Following installation, a command-line script is available. For usage instructions use:
donut-decryptor --help
This project uses Hatch for project management, Ruff for linting and formatting, and mypy for type checking.
Install Hatch:
pip install hatch
hatch run test
hatch run test-cov # with coverage
hatch run lint:style # check style
hatch run lint:fmt # format code and fix issues
hatch run lint:typing # run mypy type checking
hatch run lint:all # run all checks
The files present in the samples directory are 7z files password protected using the password infected, all of which contain donuts which can be decoded using this script.
