~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This paper is about LKMs (Loadable Kernel Modules) in FreeBSD Operating System.
It presents an interesting (at least to me) method of intercepting LKM's code
flow by hijacking event handler. I havent found any paper about this technique so
I decided to write one. This paper is rather easy however you should be familiar
with the following concepts to fully understand the content:
* basic operating systems concepts
* x86 assembly and C languages
* know what /dev/kmem is, and how it can be (ab)used
* have some knowledge about FreeBSD's LKMs
****] 0x02 FreeBSD's LKMs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Loadable Kernel Module (LKM) is not a new concept among Operating Systems.
Generally speaking it is a piece of code, that can be loaded into kernel memory to
extend functionality, implement new features within existing kernel code or
provide some kind of services (device drivers etc).
As its name suggests, LKM can be loaded any time there is a need and it is
the easiest way to place a code into kernel-space.
LKM's code executes on ring0 level, therefore it has a total control over entire
operating system. It can change important data structures or do other ugly (?) things.
****] 0x03 Basic FreeBSD's LKM
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This paper is not a book about writing LKMs under FreeBSD operating system, therefore
I will quickly present only essential information. The simplest FreeBSD's kernel module
consists of 3 parts:
* event handler
* moduledata structure
* DECLARE_MODULE() macro
event handler defines actions to be performed in response to a particular events
like LKM being loaded or unloaded.
moduledata structure (declared in <sys/module.h>) stores some information about LKM:
its name and pointer to event handler function.
DECLARE_MODULE() macro is used to link and register a LKM within the kernel.
Armed with this knowledge we can write a simple LKM that will be used to present
techniques described in this paper (lkm_sample.c).

Ok, it works perfectly, now lets see how event handler looks like.
****] 0x04 Inside event handler
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, this dump looks really simple, and the assembly code implements standard
switch()/case construction.
****] 0x05 Near Call jumps
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Before we start playing around with LKM's event handler, you should understand how
near call's are translated into machine code. This is really simple but important
so do not ignore this small section. Consider the following code:
206: e8 f5 00 00 00 call 300
20B: b8 2f 14 00 00 mov $0x142f, %eax
When the IP (Instruction pointer) gets to line 206 it will jump to code at 300.
CALL intruction is represented by 0xE8, however 0xf5000000 is not 0x300. Weird?
Well, this kind of call is named "near call" and the value after CALL's opcode is
A DISTANCE from location we jump to, to a place we return after call is finished:
0x300 - 0x20B = 0xF5.
****] 0x06 Basic 1-byte patch
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you look carefully at lkm_sample.c's code, you will see a function named printOwned().
It is never called within the entire LKM, so lets force LKM to call it :).
Think with me, our LKM implements two events - MOD_LOAD and MOD_UNLOAD. MOD_LOAD is called
when the LKM is being loaded into kernel memory so it is not a good attack vector
(we want to hijack LKM while it is running). But what about MOD_UNLOAD? And what and where
to patch?
During my research I patched the line 458 and it works perfectly.
The algorithm is the following:
1. Locate code from "line 458" wihin kernel memory
2. Patch 0xb3 to 0xc3 (0x420 - 0x45d)
3. Run the code by unloading the module
The code implementing this method is located at the end of paper (basic_hijack.c).

root@alhambra#
****] 0x07 Advanced technique
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The previous example is not very effective because we are limited to code inside LKM.
So what about executing our own independent code?
==] 0x07.a Kernel memory allocation
**************************************
Generally the method for allocating kernel memory from user-land was developed
by Salvio Cesare and can be described as the following:
1. Find an address of a syscall
2. Write a function allocating kernel memory
3. Save sizeof(our_function) bytes of a chosen syscall
4. Overwrite a syscall with our function
5. Call that syscall (in fact, our function will be called)
6. Restore a syscall
Code for allocating kernel memory is at the end of paper (allocuser.c) - it hookes
mkdir syscall and yes, it was not written by me :).
==] 0x07.b Putting it all together
**************************************
So lets sum things up. To execute our code we need to do the following:
1. Allocate some kernel memory (allocuser.c code)
2. Place our code into allocated memory area
3. Overwrite line 458 with a jump to out code
4. Prevent kernel from crashing ;p
Advanced_hijack.c implements this technique and forces LKM to print a nice string.
At this stage, you are limited only to your imagination, you can execute every
code :)

In this paper, a nice and interesting technique for intercepting LKM's flow was
