Event description

Reach the Nirvana

Level of Instruction: Advanced

Instructed by: Yoann "OtterHacker" DEQUEKER

Abstract:

The Nirvana Debug is a Windows internal features existing since Windows 7. This workshop idea is to see how this feature can be weaponized in order to either:

- Hijack execution flow

- Perform process injection

- Perform sleep obfuscation for C2 beacon

During this workshop, you will learn the main principle of Nirvana Debugging, and try to weaponize it. Some debugging, reverse and coding will be needed in order to create a new malware that will evade classic EDR solutions.

WHILE THIS IS AN INTRODUCTION TO NIRVANA HOOKING, THIS WORKSHOP IS STILL A HIGHLY TECHNICAL WORKSHOP
