SindriKit 1.3.0 Abuses Call Stack Spoofing to Bypass EDR Detection
SindriKit 1.3.0 introduces a significant advancement in evading Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems by exploiting dynamic call stack spoofing. This method defeats telemetry that inspects kernel-transition call chains, going beyond just user-mode hooks. Previously, SindriKit 1.2.0 had already separated syscall invocations via indirect syscalls, redirecting to legitimate syscall return instructions in ntdll.dll to evade…
