Go Defender

GoDefender

This Go package provides functionality to detect and defend against various forms of debugging tools and virtualization environments. By the way, for quick setup, run install.bat.

Anti-Virtualization

• Triage Detection: Detects if the system is running in a triage or analysis environment.
• Monitor Metrics: Monitors system metrics to identify abnormal behavior indicative of virtualization.
• VirtualBox Detection: Detects the presence of Oracle VirtualBox.
• VMware Detection: Detects the presence of VMware virtualization software.
• KVM Check: Checks for Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) hypervisor.
• Username Check: Verifies if the current user is a default virtualization user.
• Recent User Activity: Checks user activity; if there are fewer than 20 files, it exits.
• USB Mount: Checks if a USB was ever plugged into the computer before.

Anti-Debug

This module includes functions to detect and prevent debugging and analysis of the running process.

• IsDebuggerPresent: Checks if a debugger is currently attached to the process.
• Remote Debugger: Detects if a remote debugger is connected to the process.
• PC Uptime: Monitors system uptime to detect debugging attempts based on system restarts.
• Check Blacklisted Windows Names: Verifies if the process name matches any blacklisted names commonly used by debuggers.
• Running Processes: Retrieves a list of running processes and identifies potential malicious ones.
• Parent Anti-Debug: Detects if the parent process is attempting to debug the current process.
• Kill Bad Processes: Terminates known malicious processes detected on the system.
• Detects Usermode AntiAntiDebuggers: Detects user-mode anti-anti-debuggers like ScyllaHide (BASIC).
• Internet Connection Check: Checks if an internet connection is present.

Process

This module focuses on critical processes that should be monitored or protected.

• Critical Process: Implements functionality to manage critical processes essential for system operation.
• SeDebugPrivilege: Grants better permissions.

Quick Nutshell

• Detects most anti-anti-debugging hooking methods on common anti-debugging functions by checking for bad instructions on function addresses (most effective on x64). It also detects user-mode anti-anti-debuggers like ScyllaHide and can detect some sandboxes that use hooking to monitor application behavior/activity (like Tria.ge).

Credits

• https://github.com/AdvDebug: Inspired me to start making this package. Without him, it wouldn't be here. Check out his GitHub.
• https://github.com/MmCopyMemory: Provided ideas and much more. Check out his GitHub.
• I made this because I noticed someone was trying to crack or analyze my other Go programs. Previously, I had many lines of anti-debugging code (I coded lazily and put everything into one), so I wanted to create something quick and reliable that would make a reverse engineer's life harder. Thus, I made GoDefender.

TODO (V1.0.6 Plans):

• Check Disk / RAM (If disk size is less than 100GB, exit; and if RAM size is less than 6GB, exit).
• Flags and artifacts.
• Execution time is lame, but I guess it can be added as well.
• Hiding threads through (NtSetInformationThread).
• Theres probably more, but i cant think of any right now.
