vagd 0.2.0

pwntools with vagrant integration

VAGD

VirtuAlization GDb integrations in pwntools

Installation

pip install vagd pwntools

or

pip install .
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

use python -m vagd to generate a template

# run as process in VM
./exploit.py
# run as gdb server in VM requires tmux
./exploit.py GDB
# run on remote IP:PORT
./exploit.py REMOTE

I recommend using pwndbg.

Files

All created files ares stored in the local ./.vagd/ directory. Additional large files (e.g. cloudimages) are stored in the home directory ~/.vagd/ or handled by tools themselfs (e.g. Vagrant, Docker).

	X	api	bool	if a gdb python api interface should be created, is set as attribute gdb in return object
	X	sysroot	str	the sysroot to use for gdb. Not applicable if fast is set in Vagd constructor
	X	gdb_args	list[str]	additonal gdb command line arguments to add to gdb
		**kwargs	Any	allows the usage of other pwntool arguments

required	name	type	description
	argv	list[str]	command line arguments for binary
	**kwargs	Any	allows the usage of other pwntool arguments

Return: pwn.process

vagd.pwngd.Pwngd.start

uses pwn.args to swap between Vagd.process, Vagd.pwn_debug and Vagd.debug if experimental is enabled (in constructor or via ex=True)

Parameters:

required	experimental	name	type	description
		argv	list[str]	command line arguments for binary

		**kwargs	Any	allows the usage of other pwntool arguments

Return: pwn.process

vagd.wrapper.GDB

receives target: pwn.process and returns gdb python api with type hinting from types-gdb or a wrapper.Empty object, that returns None for every methode.

required	name	type	description
x	target	pwn.process	a pwn.process object. If tehe gdb attribute is set a gdb python api is returned, else wrapper.Empty

Boxes

the following boxes were tested and work, box constants are inside vagd.box

• Vagrant

  • UBUNTU_JAMMY64 = 'ubuntu/jammy64'
  • UBUNTU_FOCAL64 = 'ubuntu/focal64'
  • UBUNTU_BIONIC64 = 'ubuntu/bionic64'
  • UBUNTU_XENIAL64 = 'ubuntu/xenial64'

• QEMU (cached in ~/.vagd/qemu-imgs)

  • CLOUDIMAGE_JAMMY
  • CLOUDIMAGE_FOCAL
  • CLOUDIMAGE_BIONIC
  • CLOUDIMAGE_XENIAL

currently only distributions that use apt are supported

Future plans

pre configured Vagrant boxes / QEMU Images

created pre configured Vagrant boxes with preinstalled lib debug symbols and gdbserver to lower init runtime.
