We have a research tool that allows you to capture and modify system calls on Solaris, FreeBSD, Linux, and NT/Win2000. It's called Generic Software Wrappers. Source code is available free at: ftp://ftp.tislabs.com/pub/wrappers Basically, our tool adds a loadable kernel module into the system (except on Windows, where it's at the DLL level), and provides a language that you use to specify which system calls you'd like intercepted, and what you'd like done with them.

-----Original Message----- From: Green Charles Contr AFRL/IFGB [mailto:Charles.Green () RL AF MIL] Sent: Thursday, June 22, 2000 9:23 AM To: VULN-DEV () SECURITYFOCUS COM Subject: Capturing System Calls On UNIX Systems, (FreeBSD, Linux, Solaris) is there a way to capture/modify system calls calls from an application with out modifying the kernel (or using kernel modules) - preferably in userspace? The reason I ask is that a group of us are being asked to evaluate a piece of software for my company but they've put some heavy restrictions on how we do it. One of the restriction is that we're not allowed to modify the kernel.
