This repository contains a Python script for DLL injection into a target process on the Windows operating system. DLL injection is a technique used to insert code into the address space of a running process, allowing the injected code to run within the context of that process.
-
Target Process: The process into which the DLL will be injected. In this example, the target process is set to 'notepad.exe'. You can customize it to your specific use case.
-
DLL to Inject: The name of the DLL file to be injected. In this example, it's 'injected_dll.dll'. Make sure the DLL you want to inject is present and matches the specified name.
-
Hook Function: The function to be hooked in the target process. It is defined as 'HookFunction' in the script.
-
Hook Address: The address of the function to be hooked in the target process. Modify the 'hook_address' variable with the appropriate address.
The script includes robust error handling to catch potential failures during process opening, DLL loading, or thread creation. If any step encounters an issue, the script will raise an exception and provide a meaningful error message.
To use the script:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/mar0ls/py_dll_injector.git - Modify the script variables (
target_process,dll_name,hook_function,hook_address) according to your requirements. - Run the script:
python py_dll_injector.py
- Ensure you have the necessary permissions before attempting DLL injection.
- Understand the legal and ethical implications of modifying the behavior of other processes.
