In computer programming, DLL injection is a technique used to run code within the address space of another process by forcing it to load a dynamic-link library.^[1] DLL injection is often used by third-party developers to influence the behavior of a program in a way its authors did not anticipate or intend.^[1][2][3] For example, the injected code could trap system function calls,^[4][5] or read the contents of password textboxes, which cannot be done the usual way.^[6]

[edit] Approaches on Microsoft Windows

There are at least four ways to force a program to load a DLL on Microsoft Windows:

• DLLs listed under the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\AppInit_DLLs will be loaded into every process that links to User32.dll as that DLL attaches itself to the process.^[5][7][8][9]
• Process manipulation functions such as CreateRemoteThread can be used to inject a DLL into a program after it has started.^{[5][6][10][11][12][13]}
  1. Get a handle to the target process. This can be done by spawning the process^[14][15] or by keying off something created by that process that is known to exist – for instance, a window with a predictable title,^[16] or by obtaining a list of running processes^[17] and scanning for the target executable's filename.^[18]
  2. Allocate some memory in the target process,^[19] and the name of the DLL to be injected is written to it.^[10][20]

     This step can be skipped if a suitable DLL name is already available in the target process. For example, if a process links to ‘User32.dll’, ‘GDI32.dll’, ‘Kernel32.dll’ or any other library whose name ends in ‘32.dll’, it would be possible to load a library named ‘32.dll’. This technique has in the past been demonstrated to be effective against a method of guarding processes against DLL injection.^[21]

  3. Create a new thread in the target process^[22] with the thread's start address set to be the address of LoadLibrary and the argument set to the address of the string just uploaded into the target.^[10][23]

     Instead of writing the name of a DLL-to-load to the target and starting the new thread at LoadLibrary, one can write the code-to-be-executed to the target and start the thread at that code.^[6]

  4. The operating system will now call DllMain in the injected DLL.^[10][24]

  Note that without precautions, this approach can be detected by the target process due to the DLL_THREAD_ATTACH notifications sent to every loaded module as a thread starts.^[24]

• Windows hooking calls such as SetWindowsHookEx.^{[2][5][6][25][26][27]}
• Use the debugging functions to pause all threads, and then hijack an existing thread in the application to execute injected code, that in turn could load a DLL.^[4][28][29]

[edit] Approaches on Unix-like systems

On Unix-like operating systems with the dynamic linker based on ld.so (on BSD) and ld-linux.so (on Linux), arbitrary libraries can be linked to a new process by giving the library's pathname in the LD PRELOAD environment variable, that can be set globally or individually for a single process.^[30]

For example, in bash, this command launches the command "prog-help" with the shared library from file "test.so" linked into it at the launchtime:

LD_PRELOAD="./test.so" prog—help

Such a library can be created with GCC by compiling the source file containing the new globals to be linked, with the -fpic or -fPIC option,^[31] and linking with the -shared option.^[32] The library has access to external symbols declared in the program like any other library.
