x86 (32-bit)

Compiling ASM in x86

$ nasm -f elf32 -o <file>.o <file>.asm
$ ld -o <file> <file>.o

# If you want to use libc instead of syscalls, use GCC
$ gcc -o <file> <file>.o

Finding Syscalls

$ cat /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/asm/unistd_32.h

GDB

Finding Entry Points

(gdb) shell readelf -h <file>

Debugging Commands

(gdb) info proc mappings        ; Show memory space
(gdb) info functions            ; Show available functions
(gdb) info variables            ; Show available variables
(gdb) prints $eflags            ; Prints the current Eflags
(gdb) break *&code              ; Breat at the beginning of the shellcode

Hooking

(gdb) define hook-stop          ; Setting the hooks
> print/x $eax                  ; Prints the current EAX register in hex
> print/x $ebx                  ; Prints the current EBX register in hex
> print/x $ecx                  ; Prints the current ECX register in hex
> print/x $edx                  ; Prints the current EDX register in hex
> x/8xb &data                   ; Examine next 8 hex values at data location byte-by-byte
> x/8cb &data                   ; Examine next 8 character values at data location byte-by-byte
> disassemble $eip,+5           ; Disassemble next 5 values from the current EIP register
> end

* Display (Show the following outpus w/o hooking)
