 Posted: Sat May 06, 2017 4:51 am Post subject: Debug aa random crash |
 |
|
Hi everybody,
I'm making trainer for C&C Tiberian Sun. After some successful scripts i got stuck at Invincibility script.
I found the relevant opcode, made an AOB injection and put my own code which differentiates between my units and ai and make zero damage to mine. Thing is that Invincibility script randomly crashes the game. Sometimes it could take an hour and sometimes few minutes, and im unable to find the cause yet. And here is where i need your help guys ...
My hunch is that somewhere in my code i stumble upon value that is incomparable or not compatible when i move it to another register and thus only when i hit those occasions the game crashes. Of course its a guess. How can i found what causes the crash ? The game crashes with an error and then quits to desktop. I cant find crash logs anywhere. This is the code :
| Code: |
{ Game : game.exe
}
[ENABLE]
aobscanmodule(INJECT,game.exe,8B 45 00 8B CA 2B) // should be unique
alloc(newmem,$1000)
label(code)
label(return)
//label(original)
label(player)
newmem:
code:
push eax
push ebx
mov ebx,["game.exe"+003E2284]+0
cmp ebx,[esi+ec]
pop eax
pop ebx
je player
push eax
mov eax,[esi+ec]
mov eax,[eax+34]
cmp eax,00000101
pop eax
je player
mov eax,[ebp+00]
mov ecx,edx
jmp return
player:
mov [ebp+00],0
mov eax,[ebp+00]
mov ecx,edx
jmp return
// jmp original
//original:
// mov eax,[ebp+00]
// mov ecx,edx
// jmp return
INJECT:
jmp newmem
return:
registersymbol(INJECT)
[DISABLE]
INJECT:
db 8B 45 00 8B CA
unregistersymbol(INJECT)
dealloc(newmem)
{
// ORIGINAL CODE - INJECTION POINT: "game.exe"+1860DF
"game.exe"+1860BE: EB 03 - jmp game.exe+1860C3
"game.exe"+1860C0: 89 55 00 - mov [ebp+00],edx
"game.exe"+1860C3: DB 44 24 38 - fild dword ptr [esp+38]
"game.exe"+1860C7: A1 88 C4 74 00 - mov eax,[game.exe+34C488]
"game.exe"+1860CC: DC 88 B0 0E 00 00 - fmul qword ptr [eax+00000EB0]
"game.exe"+1860D2: DB 44 24 14 - fild dword ptr [esp+14]
"game.exe"+1860D6: D8 D9 - fcomp st(0),st(1)
"game.exe"+1860D8: DF E0 - fnstsw ax

"game.exe"+1860DD: 75 24 - jne game.exe+186103
// ---------- INJECTING HERE ----------
"game.exe"+1860DF: 8B 45 00 - mov eax,[ebp+00]
"game.exe"+1860E2: 8B CA - mov ecx,edx
// ---------- DONE INJECTING ----------

"game.exe"+1860E6: 89 4C 24 38 - mov [esp+38],ecx

"game.exe"+1860EE: D8 D9 - fcomp st(0),st(1)
"game.exe"+1860F0: DF E0 - fnstsw ax
"game.exe"+1860F2: F6 C4 01 - test ah,01
"game.exe"+1860F5: DD D8 - fstp st(0)
"game.exe"+1860F7: 74 0C - je game.exe+186105
"game.exe"+1860F9: C7 44 24 10 03 00 00 00 - mov [esp+10],00000003
"game.exe"+186101: EB 02 - jmp game.exe+186105
}

Not sure what you're doing with [esi+EC], but did notice this:
| Code: | push eax
push ebx
//code
pop eax
pop ebx |
Should be:
| Code: | push eax
push ebx
//code
pop ebx
pop eax |

Hi ++METHOS,
Good catch, missed that one.
Eventually it seems that i got it sorted. Apparently the problem was at :
| Code: |
mov eax,[esi+ec]
mov eax,[eax+34]
|
While playing with break points i managed to find that sometimes the 1st line was zero and eax was zero too and in turn it crashed at second line.
None the less thank you very much for helping !!
p.s. - On the side note, im still curious how one actually can debug those random crashes except of using break points and playing with them (which is very time consuming and no result is guaranteed) ? What steps you take in this situation ?

| Again, not sure what you're doing with [esi+EC], but there are many ways to validate data before moving it around in an effort to mitigate crashing the target process.
