Virtual Machine Detection


Marshall Fryman posts some code snippets on how to detect if application running under virtualized environment, such as VMWare, Virtual PC, Wine, etc.

So, I’ve made a demo based on the code he provided, and here some snapshots.

Native Environment

Virtual PC

VMWare GSX Server

VMWare Workstation

Wine

    Do you have a Parallels install? I found a security researcher who claimed that you could detect Parallels using an interrupt. I haven’t found anyone who has shown specifically how the call works (or even anyone else who documents that this exists). Since I really don’t do asm very well, I haven’t been able to decide what xxxxx should be. Well, that plus I don’t have a Parallels install. 🙂

    The article is here : http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/reference/Virtual_Machine_Threats.pdf (pages 5 & 6). Any chance you grok asm enough to decipher what should be passed ?

    Thank you for pointing me to the article, first I have to get Parallels and others described in the article. I think it will be a lot of funs (and stresses??) about detecting many virtual machines. 😀
