php-eval-hook

A PHP extension for hooking eval(). Useful for dumping eval-obfuscated code. The extension is expected to work with PHP 7.x in general. May work with PHP 5.x but is untested.

Compiling steps

A precompiled extension can be downloaded from releases. It has been compiled against PHP 7.2.24 available on Ubuntu 18.04 repos. The precompiled extension is not guaranteed to work on your system. Hence it's always recommended to compile from source as shown below.

  1. Install php and php-dev packages. Here we are using the packages available on the official Ubuntu 18.04 repos.

    $ sudo apt install php7.2 php7.2-dev
    
  2. Clone the repository

    $ git clone https://github.com/extremecoders-re/php-eval-hook
    
  3. Run phpize. This will generate the Makefile and other files needed for buidling the extension.

    $ cd php-eval-hook
    $ phpize
    
  4. Build the extension. make install copies the .so to the appropriate location.

    $ ./configure --enable-evalhook
    
    $ make
    
    $ make install
    Installing shared extensions:     /usr/lib/php/20170718/
    

Registering the extension with PHP

  1. Find the location of php.ini.

    $ php -r 'phpinfo();' | grep php.ini
    Configuration File (php.ini) Path => /etc/php/7.2/cli
    Loaded Configuration File => /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini
    
  2. Edit php.ini and add the line extension=evalhook.so at the end.

    $ echo "extension=evalhook.so" >> /etc/php/7.2/cli/php.ini
    
  3. Ensure that the extension is properly loaded.

    $ php -r 'print_r(get_loaded_extensions());' | grep evalhook
        [14] => evalhook
    
    $ php -r 'phpinfo();' | grep eval
    evalhook
    eval() hooking => enabled
    callback function => __eval
    

Usage

You must define a callback function named __eval in your PHP code. The extension will call this function whenever it encounters an eval. Inside your callback you can print the code to stdout or dump to a file or whatever you want.

Example

function test_obfuscated()
