; GetProcAdd for Kernel32 - finding Kernel32 API's
; by jhb

; One of the major hurdles for Virii writers who want to extend there selves
; to Win95 virii, is the ability to call the Win95 API. But the usual way to
; call these API is to have them already link and in the import area of the PE
; file. So how do you call the API if you do not have them linked at run time?
; Well VLAD show us we can hard code the API address's but if Win95 changes
; the kernel location ,we have a problem. Next VLAD shows us a way to "patch"
; the import area to get getproccaddress and loadlibrary, this allows us to get
; the address of all the import by name API. Another way is demo'ed in this
; code by assuming one thing the kernel address (0BFF70000h) we can use the
; info in the PE file format of the Kernel32 to locate any API named/ordinal.
; This means we can have access to any API that is Exported... Well a modified
; form of the routine is used in the Puma virus to import all the need API.
; The only problem is the hardcoded Kernel32 address. Well after I wrote this
; code I found that if the program imported any kernel32 routine then the
; address was located in the entry of the Kernel32 in the import area.
; Here is a diagram that hopefully illustrates what I am poorly explaining
; an entry in the import table is like so:
;
; offset b4 runtime runtime
; 0 rva Pnter to first API imported same
;
; 4 000000 timedate of DLL
;
; 8 000000 load address of
; the dll
;
; C rva pnter to dll name same
;
; 10 rva Pnter to first API imported address to jmp
; tble to API
;
; Well to some this is still nonsense, read the PE format docs and it mite
; make more sense ;), The important thing is that the Dll address is there
; and can be used. Problem here if the file does not have a Kernel API,
; doubtful since to even end the file you use ExitProcess. Second problem
; if the file is "Binded" this means the file has the import address already
; loaded into it, Basically this can be checked b4 runtime offset 4 already
; have a date and time offset 8 has FFFFFFF in it, but change the date time
; field and then all is ok, the file is no longer "binded". This way would
; just setup a routine to get the kernal address and then run the regular
; routine here to get the Address of whatever kernel we need.
; Anyway this routine is just a simple example I use to get the address of
; routines I want to test ideas on. Getting the CallVxd0 or ordinal 1
; of the Kernel this gives us access to VXD routines like Vwin32_int21Dispatch
; so with one routine you could infect the a file using int 21 calls. Well
; this should work in theory. Well I hope this routine helps others understand
; the writing of Virii in Win95.
;
; Yes I know that if the ordinal is the last routine found there is garbage
; in the title of the box but oh well you fix it it demos the idea ok
; jhb 1/97

; The main idea is to find the Kernel32 loaded address which is the
; number we will need to add to all the rva to get the actual location in
; memory now located the import data area by using the info in the data
; directory the import data is located at the 78h bytes into the PE header
; now we take this rva add the kernel and we have the import segment.
; now we get the pointers to the 3 arrays nameindex, functionindex,
; AddressofFunction we also need the ordinal base but thats easy also
; Each index is a pointer to the next bit of info to find the Address of the
; function. First take the Name and find which string it matches to now use
; this number as an index into the ordinals now use the ordinal as an index
; into the Array of Funcutions address then ya got it. Well I doubt that made
; sense I hope but doubt my comments in the code help
;
;
; To compile:
; tasm32 /ml /m3 getadd,,;
; tlink32 /Tpe /aa /c getadd,getadd,, import32.lib
;
