I'm trying to load a signed DLL into a VBS enclave and LoadEnclaveImage
is returning A device attached to the system is not functioning
.
Hyper-V, Secure Boot, & TPM 2.0 are all functioning, so I'm not quite sure as to what the error is referring to.
Sample Code:
if (IsEnclaveTypeSupported(ENCLAVE_TYPE_VBS))
{
DWORD lpError = 0;
ENCLAVE_CREATE_INFO_VBS vci = { 0 };
vci.Flags = 1;
PVOID enclave = CreateEnclave(GetCurrentProcess(),
NULL,
1024 * 1024 * 2,
NULL,
ENCLAVE_TYPE_VBS,
&vci,
sizeof(ENCLAVE_CREATE_INFO_VBS),
&lpError);
if (enclave != NULL)
{
auto lib = LoadLibrary(L"kernelbase.dll");
auto addr = (__LoadEnclaveImage)GetProcAddress(lib, "LoadEnclaveImageW");
if (addr(enclave, L"...\testme.dll"))
{
printf("Worked!\n");
}
else {
printf("Failed to load image\n");
printf(GetLastErrorAsString().c_str());
}
}
else
{
printf(GetLastErrorAsString().c_str());
}
}
else {
printf("VBS not supported\n");
}
I got the same general error when loading a signed DLL, so I looked for usages of LoadEnclaveImageW
in other system binaries using Static Import Finder, and found it in SgrmBroker.exe where it loads "SgrmEnclave_secure.dll". Attempting to use LoadEnclaveImageW
with that DLL was successful.
Digging deeper into the PE structure of the "SgrmEnclave_secure.dll" file, we can see that a value is defined for EnclaveConfigurationPointer
in the IMAGE_LOAD_CONFIG_DIRECTORY64
structure (see screenshot from PE-bear).
This pointer points to an IMAGE_ENCLAVE_CONFIG64
structure and this screenshot shows what it looks like when parsed in Ghidra. The ImportList
member is an RVA for a series of IMAGE_ENCLAVE_IMPORT
structures.
So it looks like these structures need to be defined in the PE. This can be done using the /ENCLAVE
option in the linker. Not sure if there are additional requirements. Should you get further with this, I'd be interested to know.
