mscofield

Recommended Posts

hello friends , i want to compile the deroko example non-intrusive loader create in tasm32 for execryptor target, but ever that i compile show me the same message

this is a log

and not resolve the call to VirtualAllocEx the exe is create but the call to VirtualAllocEx not resolved.

i try with other asm more easy and the exe is create fine until not use Call VirtualAllocEx.

In all asm that i use CAll VirtualAllocEx the obj is create fine, but tlink showme the same error,

Error: Unresolved external 'VirtualAllocEx' referenced from module ......

any idea to fix this..

regards and sorry for my bad english ;).

well there is always problem with someone else code, so thing 1st to do is change paths in bat file

cant resolve or link due it doesnt see import32.lib, there are all api's tasm 5.3 can handle.

Link to comment

@human, first to all thanks for your answer.

the path to import32.lib is fine. ..\importlib\import32.lib, iam using tasm 5.3.

The filename is loader_m.asm

my bat file is this:

make_loader.bat

-------------------

..\tasm32\tasm32 /ml /z /m9 /q loader_m

..\tasm32\tlink32 -x /Tpe /aa /c loader_m,,,..\importlib\import32.lib

..\tasm32\pewrite loader_m.exe

@echo off

del loader_m.obj

----------------------

and my importlib is selected ok, the path is ..\importlib\import32.lib, The problem is that the unique api of kernel32 cant not resolve the compiler is this., the program use VirtualProtect,LoadLibrary and others and work fine except VirtualAllocEx.

BR

sorry for my english

What can be the problem?

sigh.. its because tasm is OLD and DEAD and the import lib you're using doesn't

know the Ex functions (because they came later.. with hmm win2k?)...

so either move to masm (probably a good idea) or use getprocaddress to get the

'unknown' api's....

sigh again.. yours might, his doesnt seem to..

so go ahead, be all high and mighty.. i really don't give a ****...

use out of date tools ,what do you really expect?..

There is updated TASM, try using that.

extern VirtualAllocEx:PROC

tasm32 /ml

tlink32 -x -c -aa FOR no console mode

or

tlink32 -x -c -ap

and dont forget your tasm.cfg file with -IC:\tasm\include

if your going old school

LPVOID WINAPI VirtualAllocEx(

__in HANDLE hProcess,

__in_opt LPVOID lpAddress,

__in SIZE_T dwSize,

__in DWORD flAllocationType,

__in DWORD flProtect

);

push flprotect

push flAlloc

push dwsize

push lpAdd

push hprocess

call VirtualAllocEx

or add a

Locals

jumps

.Model Flat ,StdCall

and use 1 liner

call VirtualAllocEx,hprocess,lpadd,dwsize,flAlloc,flprot

if im wrong someone can correct it....

damn, even i was wrong about VirtualAlloc... i cant link it with tlink32 either.. lemme see if i cant call it directly thru kernel32.dll, i need a break from browser hijacking anyways...

post the source code you are trying to compile mscofield...

u can use the old trick from CodeBreakers in such a way that i did with Tasm32 WSASTARTUP over at VX Heavens or use GetProcAddress

we need to see your source....

but yu load VirtualAllocEx directly thru the Kernel32 with this....


;tams32 /ml getproc
;tlink32 -x -c -aa getproc,,,import32
;thnx to DiA[rRlf].386P
Locals
jumps
.Model Flat ,StdCallinclude windows.inc
extrn LoadLibraryA:PROC
extrn GetProcAddress:PROC
extrn ExitProcess:PROC
.data
szDLL db 'C:\Windows\System32\Kernel32.dll',0
szAPI db 'VirtualAllocEx',0
.code
start:push offset szDLL
call LoadLibraryA push offset szAPI
push eax
call GetProcAddress push ?? //Whatever your variables are
push ??
push ??
push ??
push ??
call eax //EAX=VirtualAllocEx call ExitProcessend start

Just wondering, why can't you use the .lib files which come with BC++ Builder (as does TASM), they'd have to be more current than the files floating around atm would't they? I'm asking this in ignorance after reading an article somewhere, i don't use TASM myself or BC++ for that matter, i'm a MSVC and MASM guy. :D

HR,

TASM32 does not support VirtualAllocEx. You need to use GetModuleHandle("kernel32") and GetProcAddress("VirtualAllocEx") to use it.

Or pick a different assembler, like MASM32.
