VAGD

VirtuAlization GDb integrations in pwntools

Installation

pip install vagd

or from repo with

git clone https://github.com/gfelber/vagd
pip install ./vagd/

Usage

• vagd template [OPTIONS] [BINARY] [IP] [PORT] to generate a template, list OPTIONS with help -h

• vagd info BINARY to print info about binary

# 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).

CLi

alias vagd="python -m vagd" # or install with pip / pipx
# help message
vagd -h
# analyses the binary, prints checksec and .comment (often includes Distro and Compiler info)
vagd info BINARY
# creates template, for more info use: vagd template -h
vagd template [OPTIONS] [BINARY] [IP] [PORT]
# ssh to current vagd instance, for more info use: vagd ssh -h
vagd ssh [OPTIONS]
# scp file to/from vagd instance, for more info use: vagd scp -h
# e.g. vagd scp ./test_file vagd:./ # vagd:./ is default target
vagd scp [OPTIONS] SOURCE [TARGET]
# stop and remove current vagd instance, for more info use: vagd clean -h
vagd clean [OPTIONS]

Documentation

Boxes

A listed of known working Boxes can be found in the Documentation. Other images might also work but currently only distributions that use apt and alpine for Docker are supported. This limitation may be circumvented by creating a target yourself (with the dependencies gdbserver, python, openssh) and creating a ssh connection via Shgd.

Future plans

pre configured Vagrant boxes / QEMU Images / Docker Image

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

Better Docker integration

created a Docker integration that allows loading existing Dockerfiles (maybe docker-compose), also add a feature that additionally virtualizes (Vagrant/Qemu) them to change the used kernel.
