WinDbgCookbook

This is a repo for small, useful scripts, extensions, and debugger data model "dx" queries.

Feel free to add your own scripts or update any of the scripts here. If you add a new script, just add a line in this readme file giving a summary of your script.

Modules

Find if a module called "dbgeng.dll" has any imports called "RegGetValue".

dx @$curprocess.Modules["dbgeng.dll"].Contents.Imports.SelectMany(x => x.Functions).Where(x => x.ToDisplayString().Contains("RegGetValue"))

Set a breakpoint on every export of "symsrv.dll". (The .Where(x => false) makes the command silent and makes sure everything gets evaluated instead of stopping at 100 breakpoints)

dx @$curprocess.Modules["symsrv"].Contents.Exports.Select(x => Debugger.Utility.Control.ExecuteCommand("bp " + x.CodeAddress.ToDisplayString("x"))).Where(x => false)

Get a table of every import from a module "dbghelp":

dx -g @$curprocess.Modules["dbghelp"].Contents.Imports.SelectMany(m => m.Functions.Select(f => new {Mod = m, Func = f})), 1000

Find any modules that import module "foo.dll":

dx @$curprocess.Modules.Where(m => m.Contents.Imports.Any(x => x.ModuleName.ToLower() == "foo.dll"))

Threads

Find any threads that are currently executing for a module called "mymodule.dll" or "mymodule.exe"

dx @$curprocess.Threads.Where(x => x.Stack.Frames.Any(f => f.ToDisplayString().Contains("mymodule!")))

Environment variables

Find an environment variable by name

dx @$getEnvVar=(var) => @$curprocess.Attributes.Environment.Variables.Where(x => x.ToLower().StartsWith(var.ToLower() + "="))

Example:

0:000> dx @$getEnvVar("tmp")
@$getEnvVar("tmp")                
    [0x0]            : TMP=C:\Users\tmisiak\AppData\Local\Temp

.NET Managed objects with "dx"

You can "cast" a managed object pointer to "System.Object" and dx will give you the full object information.

dx (System_Private_CoreLib!System.Object *)0x1234

stackCollector.js

This script adds a function that can be called from inside a breakpoint condition to capture the stack trace at the time the breakpoint was hit, and add it to a call graph. For instance, load the script and then set a breakpoint like:

bp /w "@$scriptContents.onBreakpoint(), false" kernelbase!ReadFile

Then run the program and later you can view the graph using a command like this:

0:007> dx -r3 @$scriptContents.stackRoot
@$scriptContents.stackRoot                 : undefined - 0
    KERNELBASE!ReadFile : KERNELBASE!ReadFile - 173
        ucrtbase!_read_nolock : ucrtbase!_read_nolock - 2
            ucrtbase!_read   : ucrtbase!_read - 2
        shcore!CFileStream::Read : shcore!CFileStream::Read - 156
            XmlLite!CharacterSource::Bytes::ReadMore : XmlLite!CharacterSource::Bytes::ReadMore - 70
            dbgeng!ConvertStreamToUnicode : dbgeng!ConvertStreamToUnicode - 86
        msvcrt!read_nolock : msvcrt!read_nolock - 1
            msvcrt!read      : msvcrt!read - 1
        dbghelp!IStreamFileWinAPI::Read : dbghelp!IStreamFileWinAPI::Read - 4
            dbghelp!MSF_HB::readPnOffCb : dbghelp!MSF_HB::readPnOffCb - 4
        dbgeng!ReadImageData : dbgeng!ReadImageData - 10
            dbgeng!IMAGE_HEADER_INFO::Read : dbgeng!IMAGE_HEADER_INFO::Read - 5
            dbgeng!IMAGE_HEADER_INFO::ReadLoadConfigDir : dbgeng!IMAGE_HEADER_INFO::ReadLoadConfigDir - 1
            dbgeng!IMAGE_HEADER_INFO::ReadDebugDir : dbgeng!IMAGE_HEADER_INFO::ReadDebugDir - 4

watchForStackCorruption.js

This script adds a function that can watch for stack corruptions in a function on the target.

Use it by running:

0:000> dx @$scriptContents.watchFunctionForStackCorruption("OverflowFunc")
@$scriptContents.watchFunctionForStackCorruption("OverflowFunc")
0:000> g
Stack corruption detected!
WindowsConsoleApp!OverflowFunc+0x3b:
00007ff7`56cb117b f3aa            rep stos byte ptr [rdi]

ttdUtil.js

Find all calls to exports of a specific module for a TTD trace:

0:000> dx -g @$scriptContents.AllExportCalls("symsrv")

Javascript tips

With dx, you can often index into a collection dynamically via multiple keys. For instance, @$curprocess.Modules[0] works as well as @$curprocess.Modules["foo.dll"] and @$curprocess.Modules["foo"]. The same thing doesn't work directly from JavaScript because it doesn't support dynamic indexing. Instead the data model projects this in as .getValueAt, so you can do:

host.currentProcess.Modules.getValueAt("foo")
