DetoursNT is a simple project with one goal - make Detours dependent only on NTDLL.DLL without any modifications of
the original code.
- Because this way you can hook native processes.
- Because this way you can load your hooking library right after load of
NTDLL.DLL- This can be achieved in many ways - for example using Windows Driver via so-called APC injection. You can look at my project injdrv to get an idea about how is this done.
This repository has attached original git repository of Detours from Microsoft as a submodule. Therefore, the original code hasn't been touched in any way.
NTDLL-only dependency been achieved by creating a C header file DetoursNT.h which has
been force-included (/FI switch of MSVC) into every compilation unit of Detours. This header
mocks functions of KERNEL32.DLL to custom implementation defined in DetoursNT.cpp.
I'd like to thank authors of following projects:
- ReactOS - used for implementation of
KERNEL32.DLLfunctions - ProcessHacker - used for prototypes of
NTDLL.DLLfunctions
Because original Detours source code is attached as a git submodule, you must not forget to fetch it:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/wbenny/DetoursNT
After that, compile DetoursNT using Visual Studio 2017. Solution file is included. No other dependencies are required.
After you hit F7 in Visual Studio and have everything compiled, you can check that SampleHookDLL.dll
indeed depends only on NTDLL.DLL:
This hooking DLL only hooks NtTestAlert function for demonstrative purposes. In this repository there is also
Sample project. It's only purpose is to call LoadLibrary(TEXT("SampleHookDLL.dll")), NtTestAlert() and
FreeLibrary() to show you that the hook is working.
- This implementation intentionally crashes on SEH exceptions which occur inside of Detours. This is because SEH handlers are usually located in CRT (which is ommited here).
- Supported architectures are: x86, x64, ARM (32-bit) and ARM64.
