Does anyone have some text explaining how metasploit encodes the exploits for the below list:
The best references are the source code and comments.
Msf::Encoder::Countdown
A tiny encoder that will use a decrementing byte as the key - doesn't work well for large payloads and is more of a cool hack than anything else.
Msf::Encoder::PexAlphaNum
An encoder based on Skylined's original work. To make this payload 100% alphanumeric, you must set all invalid characters in the 'BadChar' list of your payload -AND- set GETPCTYPE=win32 for it to use the alpha-only GETPC stub. The various signature-based IDS/IPS's look for the static ASCII decoder strings used by this encoder.
Msf::Encoder::PexFnstenvMov
Standard XOR dword decoder, uses the Fnstenv opcode to obtain the value of EIP and decode the payload (a techniqued originally discovered by Sinan Eren).
Msf::Encoder::JmpCallAdditive
Standard XOR dword decoder, uses a forward-jump and then a call-back to obtain the value of EIP and decode the payload. Since this is an additive encoder, the dword value is constantly added to the previous pass after each loop, making it slightly more annoying to decode.
Msf::Encoder::ShikataGaNai
Spoonm's psuedo-polymorphic encoder. More random then CLET, but can still use some improvements when it comes to byte frequency analysis (should be improved in the msf3 tree sometime soon).
Msf::Encoder::Alpha2
An encoder based on Skylined's alpha2 work. To make this payload 100% alphanumeric, you must set all invalid characters in the 'BadChar' list of your payload -AND- set GETPCTYPE=seh for it to use the alpha-only GETPC stub. The Metasploit Framework v3.0 Alpha Release 3 archive is online btw: - http://metasploit.com/projects/Framework/msf3/ Still buggy, only runs on Linux/BSD/Mac OS X, but we could use some help testing before we release alpha-r4. -HD ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This List Sponsored by: Cenzic Concerned about Web Application Security?
