PE Export Resolver
This tool is a cyber security library to resolve function pointers to loaded modules in memory, such as functions provided by Windows DLL's (or any other DLL with exported functions). May only be used where you have legal permission from the system owner to use this.
Available at crates.io.
Usage
- Install via:
cargo add export-resolver
or addexport-resolver = "1.0.2"
to yourCargo.toml
. - The library is instantiated with
::new()
. - When you wish to use a pointer to the required function in your code, you can simply use
.add
to resolve that function at runtime, it will then append the function virtual address to a vector of your resolved exports (all added with the.add
function) - To then get the function pointer, you can use the
get_function_address
function, which will return an Result of ausize
, where theusize
is the memory address. - Valid only for x64.
Example
fn main() {
// Create a new instance of the ExportList
let mut exports = ExportList::new();
// Add the desired functions to the ExportList structure, this will resolve and save the virtual addresses
// These calls may cause an Error if the function cannot be found; .add returns Result<(), ExportError>
let _ = exports.add("ntdll.dll", "NtOpenProcess");
let _ = exports.add("ntdll.dll", "NtQuerySystemTime");
// Attempt to get the virtual address; returns returns Result<(), ExportError> - an error will be returned where
// the input function name cannot be found in the vector of resolved functions (i.e. if the above step failed)
// or you have a typo.
let _nt = match exports.get_function_address("NtOpenProcess") {
Ok(v) => println!("NT: {:x}", v),
Err(e) => println!("Eeee {}", e),
};
}
