Dell DBUtilDrv2.sys Memory Protection Modifier

Created
12/22/2021

Description

The Dell DBUtilDrv2.sys drivers version 2.5 and 2.7 have a write-what-where condition that allows an attacker to read and write arbitrary kernel-mode memory. This module installs the provided driver, enables or disables LSA protection on the provided PID, and then removes the driver. This would allow, for example, dumping LSASS memory even when secureboot is enabled or preventing antivirus from accessing the memory of a chosen PID. The affected drivers are not distributed with Metasploit. You will truly need to Bring Your Own (Dell) Driver.

Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
