AddExclusion

Add a new exclusion to Windows Defender for a folder, file, process or extension.

This operation requires elevated privileges. Furthermore, currently only Windows Defender exclusions are supported. However, this code is easily enhanced to also support other AV products that communicate via WMI.

Arguments

  • <exclusion type>: specify one of the following exclusion types: path (file/folder), process, extension.
  • <exclusion data>: specify the data to add as an exclusion.

Usage

  • addexclusion <exclusion type> <exclusion data>

Example

  • addexclusion path C:\Users\Public\Downloads
  • addexclusion process C:\Windows\System32\example.exe
  • addexclusion extension *.xll

Compile

  • 1. Make sure Visual Studio is installed and supports C/C++.
  • 2. Open the x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS <2019/2022> terminal.
  • 3. Run the bofcompile.bat script to compile the object file.
  • 4. In Cobalt strike, use the script manager to load the .cna script to import the tool.
