Based on APIHijack – A Library for Easy DLL Function Hooking, by Wade Brainerd. Wade Brainerd gave us an excellent sample to hook DLL function calls. Yet there’s still some aspects the sample didn’t cover. If the DLL is loaded by calling LoadLibrary or the DLL isn’t used by the hooked module directly, the sample doesn’t work. So I made these changes:


//apihijack.h

//the maximum dll number can be hooked
const int MAX_DLL_NUMBER = 100;

struct SDLLHook
{
// DLL name array, terminated with a NULL field;
char* Name[MAX_DLL_NUMBER];

// Set true to call the default for all non-hooked
// functions before they are executed.

bool UseDefault;
void* DefaultFn;

// Function hook array. Terminated with a NULL Name field.
SFunctionHook Functions[];
};

// Hook functions one or more DLLs.
bool HookAPICalls( SDLLHook* Hook,
HMODULE hModule = GetModuleHandle(0));

//apihijack.cpp
#include

std::set setModules;

bool HookAPICalls( SDLLHook* Hook, HMODULE hModule )
{
char *fName = new char[100];
GetModuleFileName(hModule, fName, 100);
if (setModules.find(fName)!=setModules.end())
return true;
else
setModules.insert(fName);
OutputDebugString(“filename=”);
OutputDebugString(fName);
OutputDebugString(“\n”);
delete[] fName;
….
while ( pImportDesc->FirstThunk )
{
PSTR pszImportModuleName =
MakePtr( PSTR, hModule, pImportDesc->Name);

for (int iNameIndex=0;
iNameIndex<MAX_DLL_NUMBER;
iNameIndex++)
{
char *dllName = Hook->Name[iNameIndex];
if (!dllName)
break;
if ( lstrcmpi( pszImportModuleName, dllName ) == 0 )
{
OutputDebugString( “Found ” );
OutputDebugString( dllName );
OutputDebugString( “…\n” );

RedirectIAT( Hook, pImportDesc, (PVOID)hModule );
break;
}
}
HookAPICalls(Hook, GetModuleHandle(pszImportModuleName));

pImportDesc++; // Advance to next import descriptor
}

return true;
}

//dllmain.cpp
SDLLHook TextHook =

{
“GDI32.DLL”,
“KERNEL32.DLL”,

},
false,
NULL, // Default hook disabled, NULL function pointer.
{

{ “LoadLibraryA”, MyLoadLibraryA },
