File Name: PassPassLive
File Submitter: joakim
File Submitted: 20 Jan 2014
File Category: Security

This is a live version of PassPass: http://reboot.pro/to...s-the-password/

It attaches to lsass.exe and locates module msv1_0.dll and patches it in memory in order to bypass local password validation. No need for a reboot. Just execute it, and any password will be accepted after that for local logins. Domain logins not supported. No binaries on-disk are patched.

Tested on 6.1.7601.17514 and 6.3.9600.16384 both x86 and x64. That means latest version of both archs for Windows 7 / Server 2008 R2 and Windows 8 / Server 2012 R2.

Just for the fun of it :)

Sorry, I don't understand how to use the exe files? Are these Windows executables? How do you boot to Windows and use them to bypass the login pwd?

 

Is this for a logged-in systems only? Does it need Admin rights to run?

Same request as that of Steve's, a bit more guidance expected.

Ok guys.

 

Yes it's a Windows executable. As I said, it patches memory of lsass.exe -> msv1_0.dll. So obviously Windows has to be booted. When you want to launch it, is up to you. However it's not a boot or native application, so it depends on the win32 subsystem, and thus has a few restrictions on aexectly when it can be launched. As it brutally modifies the memory of a system process, you need to assign debug privileges to your process, and abviously thus also need to be launched by someone with admin privileges.

 

Useful?

 

Like I said:


Just for the fun of it :)

Does launching by Admin assign debug privilege, too?

Will be interesting to see how Antivirus softwares react :)

 

The createremotethread and writeprocesmemory api's (or their counterpart in the NT family) are seen as suspicious nowadays.

But I could be wrong and you could be using other api's (did not have a look at the exe yet).

In order to get yourself (in this case PassPassLive.exe) enough rights to tamper with a process running under the context of "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM", you will need some super privileges. Kind of like what a debugger would need. In fact, the privilege is named SeDebugPrivilege: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/131065

 

In order to obtain such a privilege for your process, you will to be local adminstrator. If that was not the case, the security model of Windows would not make much sense..

 

The important api's used are:

RtlAdjustPrivilege
EnumProcessModulesEx
OpenProcess
VirtualQueryEx
ReadProcessMemory
VirtualProtectEx
WriteProcessMemory

 

Not really surprising that AV is complaining though, considering what it does.. :)

I guess I really don't understand what the purpose of such a program can be, then. The only reason I could see this being of any value is if you (as an administrator on your own computer) wish to log into a limited user's account without changing their password. Yet I don't even understand the reason for this program in that case either. Usually, if you are the administrator, you know the other users' passwords because you have created them.

Please explain if there is a real-world use for this app that I haven't mentioned.

Do you? Really? Can't people change their own password, regardless of how limited their rights may be, anymore? :ph34r:

OTOH, joakim said very clearly it was created just for the lulz, so why are you asking him its real-world usefulness?  :dubbio:

He he, "just for the fun of it" does not mean you absolutely need it in your toolkit. Not even a PoC as memory patching has been known since a really long time ago. As said it is up to the user to figure out when and how to execute it.

Trying to use PassPassLive on Windows Vista SP2 32-bit.
 
msv1_0.dll version: 6.0.6002.18111
MD5 Hash:  4ABCE74D012971305249E45E095E9EA6
 
Getting the following output:
 

ProductVersion of C:\WINDOWS\system32\msv1_0.dll: 6.0.6002.18111
Error: Version not supported yet
Currently only supports: 6.1.7601.17514 and 6.3.9600.16384

 
Will support for this version be added?
