# 🔗 DLL Merger

A simple tool that embeds DLLs into Windows 32-bit PE executables, along with a loader that manually maps the DLLs into memory instead of using `LoadLibrary`, making the loaded DLLs invisible in the PEB (Process Environment Block).

# Principle of merging

# How to build

1. ```git clone https://github.com/ytk2128/dll-merger.git --recurse-submodules```

2. Open **src/merger.sln**

3. Build the solution

# Demonstration

1. Run ```merger.exe procexp.exe MyDLL.dll```

2. Execute the created ```procexp.exe_out.exe```

3. Note that ```MyDLL.dll``` is invisibly loaded in the ```procexp.exe_out.exe```
