Now that we have the code, here is my "Makefile":
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | obj-m += processInfo.o all: make --directory=/lib/modules/$(shell uname --kernel-release)/build/ M=$(PWD) modules clean: make --directory=/lib/modules/$(shell uname --kernel-release)/build/ M=$(PWD) clean |
Let's execute "make all". Honestly, as you can see below, there are a number of warnings. However, all the necessary output file were created and I choose not to spend more time figuring out the warnings as I ran out of time learning this. I had a SANS SEC504 class to teach in a few days. Here is what I got.

Let's now remove the clutter from my "dmesg" using "dmesg --clear".
1 | kali@securitynik:~/rootkits/processInfo$ sudo dmesg --clear |
Let's now take a process to learn about. Specifically, let's look at the "qterminal" process.
Here is what is returned when we execute "ps -eLf | grep qterm"

Using PID "1402", let's insert this module into the kernel.
1 | kali@securitynik:~/rootkits/processInfo$ sudo insmod processInfo.ko pid_to_lookup=1402
|
We can confirm the module installed successfully, by using "lsmod".
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 | kali@securitynik:~/rootkits/processInfo$ lsmod | more Module Size Used by processInfo 16384 0 fuse 139264 3 vboxvideo 45056 0 rfkill 28672 2 vboxsf 94208 1 |
Now that we have all the information above, let's see what dmesg reports for the module we inserted.

That's it for this post. My code is in no way perfect. Especially as can be seen from the compilation. However, I learned a lot more than I knew before about Linux processes.
