map-attack-surface

A reverse-engineering workflow that finds and ranks every likely way an attacker can enter a Windows program file, including exports, callbacks, COM methods, RPC handlers, and network handlers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inventory entry points in an analyzed Windows binary and prioritize them based on reachable security-sensitive operations.
Why use it?
Important entry points may be hidden behind callbacks, object interfaces, or dispatch code rather than appearing as simple exported functions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

map-attack-surface scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/_common.py, scripts/discover_entrypoints.py, scripts/generate_entrypoints_json.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Attack Surface Mapper

Purpose

Answer: "Where can an attacker enter this binary?"

Automatically discover, classify, and rank every possible entry point in an analyzed Windows PE binary, from obvious DLL exports to hidden COM vtable methods, RPC stubs, callback registrations, and socket dispatchers. Each entry point is ranked by attack value using callgraph reachability to dangerous operations.

When NOT to Use

  • General module-level triage or function classification -- use classify-functions or generate-re-report
  • Tracing attacker-controlled input to specific sinks -- use taint-analysis
  • Understanding what a specific function does -- use re-analyst or /explain
  • PE-level import/export dependency mapping -- use import-export-resolver

Data Sources

SQLite Databases (primary)

Individual analysis DBs in extracted_dbs/ provide:

  • file_info.entry_point -- PE-detected entry points
  • file_info.exports -- All exported functions with signatures
  • file_info.tls_callbacks -- TLS callback metadata with threat scoring
  • file_info.imports -- Imported APIs (used for API pattern detection)
  • functions.simple_outbound_xrefs -- Callgraph edges for reachability analysis
  • functions.vtable_contexts -- COM/WRL vtable reconstructions
  • functions.dangerous_api_calls -- Dangerous API sinks per function
  • functions.string_literals -- String patterns (pipe names, RPC protocols)

Finding a Module DB

Reuse the decompiled-code-extractor skill's find_module_db.py:

python .claude/skills/decompiled-code-extractor/scripts/find_module_db.py --list
python .claude/skills/decompiled-code-extractor/scripts/find_module_db.py appinfo.dll

Quick Cross-Dimensional Search

To search across function names, strings, APIs, classes, and exports in one call:

python .claude/helpers/unified_search.py <db_path> --query "SearchTerm"
python .claude/helpers/unified_search.py <db_path> --query "SearchTerm" --json

What ships with it

6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

map-attack-surface is a skill published in the GitHub repository marcosd4h/DeepExtractRuntime (20 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 131 tokens to every session and 2,914 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
