A deep dive into crafting ultra-compact Windows shellcode that walks the PEB, resolves APIs via export hashing, and runs fully self-contained without imports — showing how C can build stealthy, position-independent payloads.
EarlyBird APC Injection: A Deep Technical Analysis
The EarlyBird APC technique creates a trusted process in a suspended state, allocates memory for shellcode, and writes the payload. It then queues the shellcode as an Asynchronous Procedure Call (APC) to the suspended thread. Resuming the thread forces immediate, stealthy execution of the malicious code.
Bypassing Administrator Protection by Abusing UI Access
Windows “Administrator Protection” introduces a stronger admin model, but researchers found multiple privilege-escalation bypasses caused by legacy UAC behavior and UIAccess mechanisms. The issues allowed silent elevation in some cases and were later patched.
PPLControlShells — Protected Process / PPL Control shells Tool
PPLControlShells (the ppexec console tool) is a native Windows PP/PPL experimentation and control utility (x64)designed to help researchers understand, test, and demonstrate how Protected Process (PP) and Protected Process Light (PPL) behave on modern Windows (10/11 + compatible Server builds).
Process Injection via Component Object Model (COM) IRundown::DoCallback() for run cmd.exe from lsass.exe or other pids
A PoC/demo demonstrating code injection via COM (using the IRundown::DoCallback() mechanism) to execute a payload in the context of a selected process, including lsass.exe (or any other PID).
Using EDR-Redir To Break EDR Via Bind Link and Cloud Filter
the technique of exploiting the Bind Filter driver (bindflt.sys) to redirect folders containing the executable files of EDRs to a location that I completely control.
Securely Embedding WASM Plugins in Your Project
libraries for packaging, verifying, decrypting, and executing WebAssembly plugins packaged in a custom container format .mylib (version 2).
