Breakpoints 200

Before I got distracted with cred roaming and new netlogon goodness… we were talking about breakpoints.

We discussed basic commands and then saw some uses for the command string parameter.

[ ~ Thread] bp[ID] [Options] [Address [Passes]] [ " CommandString" ]

Some other things you can do is get creative with enabling and disabling of breakpoints.

Say you want to set a BP on a very common call like – advapi32!CommonCall but you don’t want to hit all of the instances.

You can set a BP on the caller mycode!caller and then use this BP to enable the next one for advapi32!CommonCall

 

Lets say that your ‘common call’ is USER32!DialogBox2.

Set your breakpoints.

0:000> bp USER32!DialogBox2

0:000> bp USER32!DialogBoxParamW

Note that the 2 are enabled and have an identification of 0 and 1

 1 e 768b129f 0001 (0001) 0:**** USER32!DialogBoxParamW

Now – we don’t want to hit BP0 all the time – lets say that its called from 20 other places, so go ahead and disable it.

 1 e 768b129f 0001 (0001) 0:**** USER32!DialogBoxParamW

Now we set up the BP1 to enable the BP0 when it hits, and then ‘go’

0:000> bp 768b129f "be 0;g"

breakpoint 1 redefined

0:000> bl

 1 e 768b129f 0001 (0001) 0:**** USER32!DialogBoxParamW "be 0;g"

Note that the BP0 is disabled… Now go and see what happens

0:000> g

 1 e 768b129f 0001 (0001) 0:**** USER32!DialogBoxParamW "be 0;g"

When we hit BP1, it enables the BP0 and then goes… we then breakin on BP0 in a more specific manner.
