Set of tools for hiding backdoors creating/injecting payload into images.
The following image types are currently supported: BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, WebP.
Useful references for better understanding of pixload
and its use-cases:
If you want to encode a payload in such a way that the resulting binary blob is both valid x86 shellcode and a valid image file, I recommend you to look here and here.
The following Perl modules are required:
-
GD
-
Image::ExifTool
-
String::CRC32
On Debian-based
systems install these packages:
sudo apt install libgd-perl libimage-exiftool-perl libstring-crc32-perl
On OSX
please refer to this workaround
(thnx 2 @iosdec).
docker build -t pixload .
docker run -v "$(pwd):/pixload" -it --rm pixload
BMP Payload Creator/Injector.
Create a minimal BMP Polyglot Image with custom/default payload, or inject payload into existing image.
./bmp.pl [-payload 'STRING'] -output payload.bmp
If the output file exists, then the payload will be injected into the
existing file. Else the new one will be created.
./bmp.pl -output payload.bmp

JPG Payload Creator/Injector.
Create a minimal JPG Image with custom/default payload, or inject payload into existing image.
There are two ways for injecting:
-
inject into COMMENT section
-
inject into DQT table
./jpg.pl -place COM|DQT [-payload 'STRING'] -output payload.jpg
-place COM:
The payload will be injected as a 'COMMENT'.
If the output file exists, then the payload will be injected into the
existing file. Else the new one will be created.
-place DQT:
The payload will be injected into 'DQT table'.
LIMITATION:
1. payload size must not exceed 64 bytes.
2. no injection support, only new file generation.
This is necessary in case the server application processes images and
removes comments, application-specific data, etc.
The data in DQT table must remain intact.
! If the output file exists, then it will be rewritten. !
- DQT
./jpg.pl -place DQT -output payload.jpg

WebP Payload Creator/Injector.
Create a WebP Polyglot Image with custom/default payload, or inject payload into existing image.
./webp.pl [-payload 'STRING'] -output payload.webp
Currently, there is no possibility to inject the payload into an existing
webp image. Only the new (minimal) webp image will be created and your
payload will be injected into.
If the -output argument file exists, the payload will be injected into
the existing image, but this image will be corrupted.
