MalwareLab_VM-Setup - Setup scripts for my Malware Analysis VMs

项目说明

DissectingMalwa.re Lab VMs

This repository contains my download/setup script for the Windows machines I use for Malware Analysis and Software Reverse Engineering. If you are looking for a Linux VM you should check out Remnux or Tsurugi.

Features

* The purpose of the script is to download tools, not install them. This leaves the choice of what and where to install it to the user.
* No BoxStarter/Chocolatey trouble!
* Separate Static Code Analysis and Dynamic Analysis VMs. YMMV but this is the approach I prefer!
* Option to skip tools that are not licensed for professional use
* Apply system modifications like: disable ASLR, fix Explorer file/folder views
* Download hyper scripts that match your setup
* Preload debugging symbols for offline use (more on this in the Installation section below)

The tool lists will be updated on a monthly basis!

Requirements

* A host machine capable of running both VMs at the same time would be optimal
* 4-8GB+ of RAM and 64GB+ storage per VM
* A hypervisor of your choice
* Windows ISOs (Win 7 SP1, Win 8.1 or Win 10) and matching license keys

Installation

1. Setup a fresh Windows VM with the Hypervisor you trust or download a modern.ie VM (note that this script is meant to run on x64 VMs). I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate x64 for my VMs, but I also have a secondary debugging Windows 10 Pro to stay up-to-date ;-)

A few tips for fresh Windows 7 Installs:

2. I'd recommend to create a snapshot or export an .ova/.ovf file of the clean VM.

3. Open a Powershell prompt as an Administrator and run to allow for Powershell scripts to be run on the system without interference.

4. Download/clone this repository and run with PowerShell (an elevated prompt is necessary for setting Registry Keys)

Arguments:
* - skip tools that don't allow commercial use in their licensing terms
* - this is a post-installation step, make sure to install the "Build Tools for Studio" first. If you just need the most common symbols let it run for a few minutes (< 5-10min) and cancel with Ctrl+C. Going through all the symbols for files present in System32 will take a long time and fill up your drive.

5. Once the script successfully exited you can close the Powershell window and install the downloaded software. By default the files will be saved to a subdirectory called in the same directory as the script you executed.

6. Open a new command prompt (Run as Administrator!) and try to upgrade pip first . Once that is done you can install the Python tools via

7. Once again take a snapshot/backup of the state of the VM with all the tools installed.

FAQ

Why not FLARE-VM etc.?

As I mentioned below I am not a big fan of the Boxstarter/Chocolatey install mechanism. Furthermore I prefer to download the tools directly from the de if possible and choose the e.g. installation path myself. Lastly I like to separate my Static Code Analysis VM from my Dynamic Analysis VM for a couple of reasons: less clutter, faster snapshot restore times, parallel working, to prevent license key theft and so on...

Ne other scripts might work better for you, so choose whate your boat and (mis)trust your tools!

Here are some great alternatives to my script:
* Fireeye FLARE-VM
* SentinelLabs RevCore Tools

Customization

Again, there might be one or two tools missing or superfluous for your workflow. Should this be the case you can simply add/remove them to/from the files after cloning the repository to your machine. Feel free to contribute useful tools (see below)!

The tool lists are json files with the following structure:

* = Name of the tool
* = Download URL
* = Professional use allowed? Yes -> true, No -> false
* = Requires manual download

Tips & Tricks

This section will be expanded should there be any Issues while installing or running one of the tools.

- BinaryNinja is not officially supported on Windows 7 and will produce a graphics dri when run in VBox/. You can fix this by disabling 3D acceleration. Here is the official Documentation.

Tools and Licensing

In the collapsible section below you can find a list of all tools a to download via the script.

Warning: Please check the Licenses/Terms and Conditions of the tools before you download any of them! It is the responsiblilty of the user to read, accept and comply with the terms set by the respecti.

There are a few commercial tools that do ha/Demo , but I chose not to include them in this download script. I'll install Microsoft Office, Cerbero Suite, Binary Ninja, Pro etc. manually.
