Image Payload Creating/Injecting tools

pixload -- Image Payload Creating tools

DESCRIPTION

Set of tools for creating/injecting payload into images.

Useful references for better understanding of pixload and its use-cases:

• Bypassing CSP using polyglot JPEGs

• Hacking group using Polyglot images to hide malvertising attacks

• Encoding Web Shells in PNG IDAT chunks

• An XSS on Facebook via PNGs & Wonky Content Types

• Revisiting XSS payloads in PNG IDAT chunks

If you want to encode a payload in such a way that the resulting binary blob is both valid x86 shellcode and a valid image file, I recommend you to look here and here.

SETUP

The following Perl modules are required:

• GD

• Image::ExifTool

• String::CRC32

On Debian-based systems install these packages:

sudo apt install libgd-perl libimage-exiftool-perl libstring-crc32-perl

On OSX please refer to this workaround (thnx 2 @iosdec).

Docker

docker build -t pixload .
docker run -v "$(pwd):/pixload" -it --rm pixload

TOOLS

bmp.pl

BMP Payload Creator/Injector.

Create a minimal BMP Polyglot Image with custom/default payload, or inject payload into existing image.

Usage

./bmp.pl [-payload 'STRING'] -output payload.bmp

If the output file exists, then the payload will be injected into the
existing file.  Else the new one will be created.

Example

./bmp.pl -output payload.bmp

gif.pl

GIF Payload Creator/Injector.

Create a minimal GIF Polyglot Image with custom/default payload, or inject payload into existing image.

Usage

./gif.pl [-payload 'STRING'] -output payload.gif

If the output file exists, then the payload will be injected into the
existing file.  Else the new one will be generated.

Example

./gif.pl -output payload.gif

jpg.pl

JPG Payload Creator/Injector.

Create a minimal JPG Image with custom/default payload, or inject payload into existing image.

There are two ways for injecting:

• inject into COMMENT section

• inject into DQT table

Usage

./jpg.pl -place COM|DQT [-payload 'STRING'] -output payload.jpg

-place COM:
  The payload will be injected as a 'COMMENT'.

  If the output file exists, then the payload will be injected into the
  existing file.  Else the new one will be created.

-place DQT:
  The payload will be injected into 'DQT table'.

  LIMITATION:
    1. payload size must not exceed 64 bytes.
    2. no injection support, only new file generation.

  This is necessary in case the server application processes images and
  removes comments, application-specific data, etc.

  The data in DQT table must remain intact.

  ! If the output file exists, then it will be rewritten. !

Example

• DQT

./jpg.pl -place DQT -output payload.jpg

png.pl

PNG Payload Creator/Injector.

Create a PNG Image with custom/default payload, or inject payload into existing image.

The payload is injecting into IDAT data chunks.

Usage

./png.pl [-payload 'STRING'] -output payload.png

If the output file exists, then the payload will be injected into the
existing file.  Else the new one will be created.

Example

./png.pl -output payload.png
