# API Reference — Hunting for Persistence Mechanisms in Windows
|
|
|
|
## Libraries Used
|
|
- **subprocess**: Execute `reg query`, `schtasks`, `wmic` commands to enumerate persistence
|
|
- **csv**: Parse schtasks CSV output for scheduled task analysis
|
|
- **re**: Pattern matching for suspicious command-line indicators
|
|
|
|
## CLI Interface
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
python agent.py registry # Enumerate registry Run keys
|
|
python agent.py tasks # Enumerate scheduled tasks
|
|
python agent.py services # Enumerate suspicious services
|
|
python agent.py all # Run all persistence hunts
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Core Functions
|
|
|
|
### `enumerate_registry_persistence()`
|
|
Queries 11 common registry persistence locations using `reg query` and flags entries matching suspicious indicators.
|
|
|
|
**Returns:** dict with `total_entries`, `suspicious_entries`, and `findings` list (each with `key`, `name`, `type`, `value`, `suspicious`).
|
|
|
|
### `enumerate_scheduled_tasks()`
|
|
Runs `schtasks /query /fo CSV /v` and flags tasks with suspicious actions or non-Microsoft authors.
|
|
|
|
**Returns:** dict with `total_tasks`, `suspicious_tasks`, and `findings` list.
|
|
|
|
### `enumerate_services()`
|
|
Uses `wmic service get` to list services and flags those running from unusual filesystem paths.
|
|
|
|
**Returns:** dict with `total_services`, `suspicious_services`, and filtered `findings`.
|
|
|
|
### `parse_reg_output(output, parent_key)`
|
|
Parses `reg query` text output into structured entries with key, name, type, value fields.
|
|
|
|
## Registry Keys Checked
|
|
| Key Path | Persistence Type |
|
|
|----------|-----------------|
|
|
| `HKLM\...\CurrentVersion\Run` | Auto-start programs |
|
|
| `HKLM\...\Winlogon` | Logon scripts, shell replacement |
|
|
| `HKLM\...\Active Setup` | Per-user component execution |
|
|
| `HKLM\...\Services` | Service binary paths |
|
|
| `HKLM\...\Image File Execution Options` | Debugger hijacking |
|
|
|
|
## Suspicious Indicators
|
|
Patterns flagging entries: `\\temp\\`, `powershell.*-enc`, `mshta.exe`, `rundll32.exe`, `base64`, `downloadstring`, `\\users\\public\\`
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
No external packages required — uses only Python standard library and Windows built-in commands.
