Description
This tool assists in automating the tasks involved in debugging the Windows kernel. The use of a cross-platform scripting language means they can work from UNIX or Linux operating systems, thus not having to be tied to Windows tools. Stewart developed the tool in order to make researchers’ jobs easier while working with the Windows kernel, giving the researcher the ability to debug the Windows kernel code, read and write virtual and physical memory addresses and parse undocumented structures in an easier way. One possible job that can be made easier with this tool is automating the process of pulling userland-injected code out of kernel-level malware, With this tool, a null modem cable, and some Perl and Windows kernel knowledge, they could script it in just a few hours, whereas if they were using traditional kernel debugging tools under Windows, automating the process could take much longer.
