Simple ETW unhook PoC. Overwrites NtTraceEvent opcode to disable ETW at Nt-function level.

Disclaimer

Don't be evil with this. I created this tool to learn. I'm not responsible if the Feds knock on your door.

What this does

  • Obtains NTDLL.dll base address via walking PEB.
  • Obtains all Nt* function SSN's by grabbing all Zw* functions and sorting by address in ascending order.
  • Obtains address of unhooked syscall; ret opcode sequence for indirect syscalling.
  • Performs unhooking via indirectly syscalling NtProtectVirtualMemory and NtWriteVirtualMemory.
  • Unhooks/patches ETW by overwriting NtTraceEvent opcodes with ret.

Negatives(?)

  • Moneta (and probably other stuff) catches this (alerts on Modified Code in NTDLL).
  • That's all it does. (I lied. This can be modified to use any code to repatch any Nt* function.)
