Process Stacking Injection - A Novel Approach to Covert Process Injection

Year: 2025

Type: preprint

Abstract: This paper introduces Process Stacking Injection, a novel process injection technique that fragments shellcode across multiple target processes and executes each fragment independently. By combining shellcode splitting, stack spoofing, and optional hardware breakpoints, the method enhances stealth and evades traditional detection mechanisms. This approach minimizes forensic artifacts and reduces exposure to memory scanning, offering a new perspective on covert code execution.
