How to hack the virtual table?

I would like to know how to change the address of Test which is in the virtual table with that of HackedVTable.

void HackedVtable()
{

    I don't think the vTable is in read only area because is it dynamically populated. The only way it can fail is when the compiler is absolutely sure which implementation will be called in compile time and skip the vTable lookup with direct function call(de-virtualization).

    EDIT: As @groovyspaceman pointed out, I see that I used wrong wording. The vTable class member pointer is mutable, the vTable itself is compiler generated and it depends on the system and the compiler if it can, or cannot be modified.

    I don't think there is a portable way. Mostly because of compiler optimization and different architecture ABI between every target.

    But C++ provides you with that exact same capability, why not use it?

    void HackedVtable()
    {
        cout << "Hacked V-Table" << endl;
    }
    
    class Base
    {
    public:
           virtual Test()  { cout <<"base";    }
           virtual Test1() { cout << "Test 1"; }
           void *prt;
           Base(){}
    };
    
    class Derived : public Base
    {
        public: 
               Test() 
               {
                    HackedVtable(); // <-- NOTE
               }
    };
    
    int main()
    {
        Derived b1; // <-- NOTE
    
        b1.Test();
    
        return 0;
    }

    This works for 32-bit MSVC builds (it's a very simplified version of some production code that's been in use for well over a year). Note that your replacement method must explicitly specify the this parameter (pointer).

    // you can get the VTable location either by dereferencing the
    // first pointer in the object or by analyzing the compiled binary.
    unsigned long VTableLocation = 0U;
    // then you have to figure out which slot the function is in. this is easy
    // since they're in the same order as they are declared in the class definition.
    // just make sure to update the index if 1) the function declarations are
    // re-ordered and/or 2) virtual methods are added/removed from any base type.
    unsigned VTableOffset = 0U;
    typedef void (__thiscall Base::*FunctionType)(const Base*);
    FunctionType* vtable = reinterpret_cast<FunctionType*>(VTableLocation);
    
    bool hooked = false;
    HANDLE process = ::GetCurrentProcess();
    DWORD protection = PAGE_READWRITE;
    DWORD oldProtection;
    if ( ::VirtualProtectEx( process, &vtable[VTableOffset], sizeof(int), protection, &oldProtection ) )
    {
        vtable[VTableOffset] = static_cast<FunctionType>(&ReplacementMethod);
    
        if ( ::VirtualProtectEx( process, &vtable[VTableOffset], sizeof(int), oldProtection, &oldProtection ) )
            hooked = true;
    }

    Under Mac OS X 10.10.3 + gcc 4.8.3, following code works well.

    void HackedVtable()
    {
        cout << "Hacked V-Table" << endl;
    }
    
    class Base
    {    
    public:
        virtual void Test()  { cout << "base" << endl;    }
        virtual void Test1() { cout << "Test 1" << endl; }
        void *prt;
        Base(){}
    };
    
    class Derived : public Base
    {
    public: 
        void Test()
        {
            cout << "derived" << endl;
        }
    };
    
    int main()
    {    
        Base b1;
        Base* pb1 = &b1;
    
        *(*(void***)pb1) = (void*) HackedVtable;
        pb1->Test();
    
        //It works for all the Base instance
        Base b2;
        Base* pb2 = &b2;
        pb2->Test();
    
        //But Derived's virtual function table is separated from Base's
        Derived d1;
        Derived* pd1 = &d1;
        pd1->Test();
        *(*(void***)pd1) = (void*) HackedVtable;
        pd1->Test();
    
        return 0;
    }
    

    Its output:

    $ g++ h.cpp; ./a.out
    Hacked V-Table
    Hacked V-Table
    derived
    Hacked V-Table
    

    I test the same code under Ubuntu 12.04 + g++ 4.9.0. However, it does not work and arises segmentation fault. It seems Linux assigns the virtual function table in a read only area (e.g. rodata) to forbid hacking.

    well its quite easy to figure out. Find hte VTAble pointer (In visual studio its the first 4/8 bytes). Then step into a normal call of Test (into the assembler) and you'll see it jump to the Vtable and then to your test function. To override test just replace the pointer where you jumped from in the VTable.
