Hacker defender 0.33

Hacker defender v0.3.3
======================

Hacker defender is rootkit for Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
Main code was written in Delphi 6. Functions for new thread are written 
in assembler. 

program uses adapted LDE32
LDE32, Length-Disassembler Engine, 32-bit, (x) 1999-2000 Z0MBiE
special edition for REVERT tool
version 1.05

program uses Superfast/Supertiny Compression/Encryption library
Superfast/Supertiny Compression/Encryption library.
(c) 1998 by Jacky Qwerty/29A.


Usage
-----

>hxdef033.exe [inifile]
default hxdef033.ini is used if run without specifying the inifile 


Idea
----

	The Main idea of this program was to use some API functions e.g. 
WriteProcessMemory and CreateRemoteThread to create a new thread in all 
running processes. New thread will rewrite some functions in system modules 
(mostly kernel32.dll) and inject fake code which will check API results and 
change this result in specific cases.
	Program must be absolutely hidden for all others. Now the user is able
to hide files, process, system services, registry keys. Program installs hidden
backdoors and register as hidden system service.


Licence
-------

	Till version 1.0.0 it is freeware. It can be spread but not changed
and all copies must includes all files (including original readme files).
Only exception is when target person (and computer owner) wouldn't know about 
the copy. 
	This project will be open source in version 1.0.0.

Hooked API
----------

List of API functions which are changed:

Kernel32.FindFirstFileExW
Kernel32.FindNextFileW
Kernel32.CreateProcessW
Kernel32.CreateProcessInternalW
Ntdll.NtQuerySystemInformation (class 5)
WS2_32.recv
WS2_32.WSARecv
WSOCK32.recv
Kernel32.ReadFile
Advapi32.EnumServicesStatusW
Advapi32.EnumServicesStatusA
Advapi32.RegEnumKeyW
Advapi32.RegEnumKeyA
Advapi32.RegEnumKeyExW
Advapi32.RegEnumKeyExA


Inifile
-------

	Again, there are more settings in this version. Inifile must contain 
four parts: [Hidden Table], [Root Processes], [Hidden Services] and [Hidden 
RegKeys].
	Hidden Table is a list of files and directories which should be hidden.
There is no chance to find those files and directories. Programs in this list 
will be hidden in tasklist.
	Root Processes is a list of programs which will be immune against 
infection. You can see hidden files, directories and programs only with these 
root programs. So, root processes are for rootkit admins.
	Hidden Services is a list of service names which will be hidden 
in the database of installed services. Service name for the main rootkit 
program is HackerDefender033.
	Hidden RegKeys is a list of registry keys which will be hidden. Rootkit
has two keys in registry: HackerDefender033 and LEGACY_HACKERDEFENDER033.


Backdoor
--------

	Rootkit hooks some API functions connected with receiving packets 
from the net. If incoming data equals to 256 bits long key the copy of a shell
named "~ �@�.exe" is created in a temp, its instance is created and next 
incoming data are redirected to this shell.
	Because rootkit hooks all process in the system all TCP ports on all
servers will be backdoors. This backdoor will work only on servers where 
incoming buffer is larger or equal to 256 bits. But this feature is on almost 
all standard servers like Apache, IIS, Oracle. So, backdoor is created and it 
is hidden because its packets go through common servers on the system. So, you 
are not able to find it with classic portscanner and this backdoor can easily 
go through firewall. Exception in this are classic proxies which are protocol 
oriented for e.g. FTP or HTTP.
	During tests on IIS services was found that HTTP server does not log 
any of this connection, FTP and SMTP servers log only disconnection at the end.
	You have to use special client if want to connect to the backdoor. 
Program bdcli033.exe is used for this.

usage: bdcli033.exe host port

	Client for version 0.3.3 is not compatible with servers in older 
version than 0.3.0.

Known Bugs
----------

        One bug is known at the moment. 

1)	Processes, which are debugged at the moment, can't be infect, because 
their debugger has exclusive rights for them. The infection will lose if the 
process is debugged during infection. So, it will not be changed and see 
everything. I think this is not a serious bug, because there is only small 
chance to apply this. I need help with solving this problem. It is not serious, 
but i have no idea how to fix it.
