The packet forensics mode

packet mode follow stream SPKTMD_PKTNO SPKTMD_PCNTC SPKTMD_PCNTH SPKTMD_PCNTH_PREF SPKTMD_PCNTH_SEP

Introduction

This tutorial gives you an introduction to the packet mode of T2. It was designed to enable efficient post-processing and as a means of drill down from the flows to the very packet. It uses the same format as the flow files and therefore can be processed by tawk or any other tool of your choice. Each plugin can contribute to the packet mode, same as with flows. Flows and packets are linked by the unique flow index.

Getting started

Create folders for your data and results

If you have not created a separate data and results directory yet, please do it now. This will greatly facilitate your workflow:

mkdir ~/data ~/results

Reset tranalyzer2 and the plugins configuration

If you have followed the other tutorials, you may have modified some of the core and plugins configuration. To ensure your results match those in this tutorial, make sure to reset everything:

t2conf -a --reset

You can also clean all build files:

t2build -a -c

Empty the plugin folder

To ensure we are not left with some unneeded plugins or plugins which were built using different core configuration, it is safer to empty the plugins folder:

t2build -e -y

Are you sure you want to empty the plugin folder '/home/user/.tranalyzer/plugins' (y/N)? yes
Plugin folder emptied

Download the PCAP files

The PCAP files used in this tutorial can be downloaded here:

Please save them in your ~/data folder:

wget --no-check-certificate -P ~/data https://tranalyzer.com/download/data/{annoloc2,faf-exercise}.pcap

Build tranalyzer2 and the required plugins

For this tutorial, we will need to build the core (tranalyzer2) and the following plugins:

As you may have modified some of the automatically generated files, it is safer to use the -r and -f options.

t2build -r -f tranalyzer2 basicFlow basicStats ftpDecode tcpStates txtSink

...

BUILDING SUCCESSFUL

Now you are all set for your first packet mode experience.

Activation of packet mode

The packet mode is activated by adding the -s option to the t2 command line. Now, each packet produces a separate line in the packet file.

t2 -s -r ~/data/faf-exercise.pcap -w ~/results

[INF] IPv4 flows

Nice, we observe total flow symmetry (flow asymmetry = 0), so no lonely flows, all IPv4, and we have FTP packets, which means readable content. Look at the biggest talker, maybe it’s the FTP data flow? Let’s find out.

ls ~/results

faf-exercise_flows.txt  faf-exercise_headers.txt  faf-exercise_packets.txt

An additional packets file has been created. Let’s have a look at it!

The pktNo (packet number) and time enable a synchronization between T2 packet mode and Wireshark. Hence, making the cooperation between both tools easier.

Note the pktIAT, pktTrip and flowDuration columns: they reference times separated by flow and direction. The first denotes the packet Inter-Arrival Time (IAT), the next the trip time between A and B packet of a specific flow and the latter the elapsed time since flow A or B started. These times intervals are very useful for signal processing, traffic mining research and in detail troubleshooting. The first bit in flowStat marks the direction of the flow, so you can follow the timing information between different packets and flows

Packet flow tracking

The packet mode provides all features that the flow files contains. Both entries are linked by the flowInd, so you can track each packet back to the flow and vice versa. Hence, extraction of features such as l7Content on a flow basis is a one liner with tawk. Let’s say the flow at index 3 is especially interesting to you:

tawk 'flow(3)' ~/results/faf-exercise_packets.txt | head | tcol

%pktNo  flowInd  flowStat            time                  pktIAT       pktTrip      flowDuration  numHdrs  hdrDesc       vlanID  srcMac             dstMac             ethType  srcIP           srcIPCC  srcIPOrg                     srcPort  dstIP           dstIPCC  dstIPOrg                     dstPort  l4Proto  pktLen  udpLen  snapL4Len  snapL7Len  l7Len  tcpStatesAFlags  ftpStat  l7Content

Absolute/relative seq/ack numbers

If the tcpFlags plugin is added, sequence/acknowledgment numbers, window size and certain options are displayed in packet mode. The default of absolute seq/ack numbers can be changed to relative which is helpful when analyzing the evolution of such numbers. In order to change to relative representation move to the tcpFlags directory, open tcpFlags.h and set the constant to relative.

tcpFlags

vi src/tcpFlags.h

...
/* ========================================================================== */
/* ------------------------ USER CONFIGURATION FLAGS ------------------------ */
/* ========================================================================== */

...
#define SEQ_ACK_NUM      1 // 1: SEQ/ACK number feature analysis
...

// The following options require SEQ_ACK_NUM = 1

#define SPKTMD_SEQACKREL 0 // SEQ/ACK numbers representation (-s option):
                           //   0: absolute,
                           //   1: relative

#define SPKTMD_SEQACKHEX 0 // SEQ/ACK numbers representation (-s option):
                           //   0: uint32_t
                           //   1: hex32

...

Note that SPKTMD_SEQACKHEX=0 means that seq/ack numbers are represented as integer. The other option is hex, whatever is suited best for your post-processing. We stick here with the default.

Now recompile the tcpFlags plugin and rerun t2:

t2conf tcpFlags -D SPKTMD_SEQACKREL=1 && t2build tcpFlags

t2 -r ~/data/faf-exercise.pcap -w ~/results/ -s

Extract flow 35 again from ~/results/faf-exercise_packets.txt and look for the seq and ack columns. They are now all relative to the beginning of the flow.

By invoking the same tawk query as before, we find from portClassifier a human readable output of the port based assignment of the embedded protocol; Here FTP.

macRecorder tells us that there is only one interface pair involved as macPairs is 1. If load balancing is involved or an interface card is broken, there can be more macPairs per flow. Moreover, the manufacturer is decoded from the first three octets of the MAC address.

icmpDecode output will be discussed below.

tcpFlags provides all aggregated information of IP and Layer 4. See the IP/TCP troubleshooting tutorial.

The packet mode provides now more info per packet. Now, the evolution of the anomaly bits, packet lengths, the seq/ack numbers, checksums and window size can be extracted on a packet per packet basis and directly fed into sequence analysis algorithms.

Changing L7 output format to hex

The configuration of the packet mode currently resides at compile-time in a header file: main.h. This will change in future and bring more flexibility to the packet mode. You can either switch on/off the packet number or the output type of layer 7 content. Both may be switched on simultaneously, in which case the human readable output is appended after the hexadecimal output. The prepended 0x facilitates the post-processing with command line scripts. Nevertheless, it may be simpler for the human eye to remove these characters, then set SPKTMD_PCNTH_PREF to "". Also the separator can be changed, default is " ". The start of the printout can be chosen with SPKTMD_PCNTL, default is the layer 7 header.

Now switch from human readable to hexadecimal values using t2conf, recompile the core and rerun t2:

t2conf tranalyzer2 -D SPKTMD_PCNTC=0 -D SPKTMD_PCNTH=1 && t2build tranalyzer2

t2 -r ~/data/faf-exercise.pcap -w ~/results -s

If we select our FTP flow again by the flowInd, we now find the L7 output in hex. The format enables you to directly read the L7 binary content with tawk without recoding from text.

Bit ops on payload

In forensics and protocol reversing, certain bit operations such as bit reversal, nibble flip or shift operations come in handy. Hence, the core of T2 supports all of these ops in packet mode, so that the user is not required to write additional post processing scripts.

tranalyzer2

vi src/main.h

...
// Packet mode (-s option)
#define SPKTMD_PKTNO    1 // Whether or not to print the packet number
#define SPKTMD_PCNTC    1 // Whether or not to print L7 content as characters
#define SPKTMD_PCNTH    0 // Whether or not to print L7 content as hex
#define SPKTMD_PCNTL    4 // 0: Print the full payload of the packet
                          // 1: Print payload from L2
                          // 2: Print payload from L3
                          // 3: Print payload from L4
                          // 4: Print payload from L7

#define SPKTMD_BOPS  0x00 // Operations on content, selected by SPKTMD_PCNTL
                          //    0x00: MSB, no bit inverse, no shift
                          //    0x01: LSB, Bit inverse
                          //    0x02: Nibble SWAP
                          //    0x10: Shift right
                          //    0x20: if 0x10: shift from last byte into extra trailing byte

#define SPKTMD_BSHFT_POS 5 // Bitshift byte pos start
#define SPKTMD_BSHFT     2 // Bitshift
...

SPKTMD_BOPS controls all bit ops on the payload as selected by SPKTMD_PCNTL, so currently on L7 with starting byte position SPKTMD_BSHFT_POS=5. By default no op is selected. The first bit inverts all bits of every byte, the second swaps the nibbles. The 5th shifts all content to the right and the 6th adds a trailing byte where the bit of the last byte will be shifted to. Any of the bits can be selected independently. The sequence of ops is defined as follows if all ops are selected: (0x13)

  1. shift
  2. bit inverse
  3. nibble swap

As homework, try all modes independently. Switch shift from the 10th byte on and look at the hex content, whether you see what is expected. Then try bit inverse, so you can expect bit7->bit0, bit6->bit1, … Nibble swap, should be clear. if you have questions, write the Anteater an email, he’ll help.

Now reset to default output again for the next chapter:

t2conf tranalyzer2 --reset && t2build tranalyzer2

Selecting flows and packets

Maybe you want to look for a certain anomaly or you are interested in all ICMP messages. As our present PCAP does not contain ICMP, download annoloc2.pcap and run t2 on it:

t2 -s -r ~/data/annoloc2.pcap -w ~/results

Unfortunately there is no content in the pcap, otherwise you could see the content of the packet listing the ICMP packets going back to the sender.

If you looked closely at flowStat in the end report or the snap length warning:


[WRN] snapL2Length: 54 - snapL3Length: 40 - IP length in header: 1500

From the L3 header 40 bytes are left.

Decode the flowStat column:

tawk -V flowStat=0x0400000200004000


The flowStat column with value 0x0400000200004000 is to be interpreted as follows:

   bit | flowStat              | Description
   =============================================================================
    14 | 0x0000 0000 0000 4000 | IPv4 flow
    33 | 0x0000 0002 0000 0000 | Acquired packet length < packet length in L3 header
    58 | 0x0400 0000 0000 0000 | IPv4 packet

So we do not see any L7 content in the packet file, because it got snapped.

Why would somebody do that? Right, anonymization…

Wireshark like follow stream

In this section, we will analyze faf-exercise.pcap again. We will see how we can use tawk follow_stream() function to reconstruct the payload of a given flow (akin to Wireshark Follow TCP Stream and Follow UDP Stream functionality).

Let’s see how it can be used:

t2 -s -r ~/data/faf-exercise.pcap -w ~/results

tawk -d follow_stream

follow_stream(f, of, d, pf, r, nc):

  Return the payload of flow with index 'f'.

  Parameters:
    - f: flow index to follow.
    - [of]: output format [default: 0]:
            0: Payload only,
            1: Prefix each payload with packet/flow info,
            2: JSON,
            3: Reconstruct (pipe the output to 'xxd -p -r' to reproduce the binary file).
    - [d]: direction to follow ("A" or "B") [default: "" (A and B)]
    - [pf]: payload format [default: 0]:
            0: ASCII,
            1: Hexdump,
            2: Raw/Binary,
            3: Base64.
    - [r]: do not analyze TCP sequence numbers (no TCP reassembly and reordering) [default: 0]
    - [nc]: do not output colors [default: 0]

  Dependencies:
    - basicFlow
    - basicStats
    - tcpFlags

  Examples:
    # follow stream 1 with payload as ASCII.
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(1)' file.txt

    # follow stream 2 with packet/flow info and payload as ASCII.
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(2, 1)' file.txt

    # follow stream 3 with packet/flow info as JSON and payload as ASCII.
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(3, 2)' file.txt

    # follow stream 4, direction B only, without packet/flow info and
    # reconstruct payload (original raw data) as binary into 'out.data'.
    $ tawk 'tawk 'follow_stream(4, 3, "B")' file.txt | xxd -p -r > out.data

    # follow stream 5, direction A only, without packet/flow info and payload as hexdump
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(5, 0, "A", 1)' file.txt

    # follow stream 6, both directions as JSON and payload as base64.
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(6, 2, "", 3)' file.txt

    # follow stream 7, both directions with packet/flow info and payload as binary.
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(7, 1, "AB", 2)' file.txt

    # follow stream 8 with payload as ASCII, without packet/flow info, with TCP
    # sequence number analysis and without colors, and redirect output to 'out.txt'.
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(8, 0, "", 0, 0, 1)' file.txt > out.txt

    # follow stream 9 with payload as hexdump, with packet/flow info,
    # but without TCP sequence numbers analysis and colors.
    $ tawk 'follow_stream(9, 1, "", 1, 1, 1)' file.txt

Let’s follow stream number 1:

1 client packets, 4 server packets, 1 turns.

If you want the output as hex?! Easy, let’s configure the core to output the packet content as hex (SPKTMD_PCNTH=1). Note that to improve the execution time, we could also switch the ASCII output off (SPKTMD_PCNTC=0).

t2conf tranalyzer2 -D SPKTMD_PCNTH=1 && t2build tranalyzer2

t2 -r ~/data/faf-exercise.pcap -w ~/results/ -s

Let’s analyze flow 35 for a change and discard the packet info:

Would it not be nice if you could recreate the binary data that was transferred with FTP? Well, actually you can! And it is dead easy with tawk follow_stream() function! Let’s do it!

First, we need to find the flow where the data R79733.EXE was transferred… Remember about FTP passive mode and the ftpCDFindex column?

tawk 'flow(35) { print $ftpCDFindex }' ~/results/faf-exercise_flows.txt

36
36
tawk 'flow(36) && bitsanyset($flowStat, 0x1) { print $numBytesSnt, $tcpFStat, $tcpAnomaly }' ~/results/faf-exercise_flows.txt

numBytesSnt	tcpFStat	tcpAnomaly
4268858	        0x0c51	        0x02c4

Ok, so the data was transferred in flow 36, direction B!

But wait… there seems to be a problem… The number of bytes for flow 36 is 4268858, while the FTP SIZE command reported a size of 4255056 bytes… Let’s look at the tcpFStat and tcpAnomaly columns for this flow to understand the issue:

tawk -V tcpFStat=0x0c51 -V tcpAnomaly=0x02c4

The tcpFStat column with value 0x0c51 is to be interpreted as follows:

   bit | tcpFStat | Description
   =============================================================================
     0 | 0x0001   | Packet good for inter-distance assessment
     4 | 0x0010   | Window state-machine initialized
     6 | 0x0040   | Win 0 probe
    10 | 0x0400   | Window full
    11 | 0x0800   | Window state-machine count up(1)/down(0)


The tcpAnomaly column with value 0x02c4 is to be interpreted as follows:

   bit | tcpAnomaly | Description
   =============================================================================
     2 | 0x0004     | SEQ Fast retransmission
     6 | 0x0040     | Sequence number out-of-order
     7 | 0x0080     | Sequence mess, rather spurious Retransmission
     9 | 0x0200     | Previous packet not captured

So, it looks like we have duplicate ACK and retransmission packets and some mess with the sequence numbers. What can we do about it? We could extract the flow and sort the packets by sequence numbers… Sounds complicated… Luckily, there is actually nothing to worry about, as the follow_stream() function automatically takes care of all the nitty-gritty details! Time to extract the data!

As expected, the size of the file matches that reported in the FTP control channel! A Dell graphics control firmware. Is it, or is it Marware? If you enter the MD5 into VirusTotal, you will see.

Conclusion

That is just a very brief demo of what you can do with T2 packet mode! And yes, ftpDecode is data carving capable if FTP_SAVE is enabled (refer to the FTP tutorial for more details!). So extracting R79733.EXE would be much faster in that mode. But for non data carving capable plugins, or if you want to be compatible with Wireshark output, tawk follow_stream function is definitely an option.

Don’t forget to reset t2 configuration for the next tutorials:

t2conf --reset -a && t2build -R

Have fun!
