ABSTRACT:
A method of dynamically hooking runtime processes without interrupting the flow of execution includes: suspending a thread; hooking a function comprising modifying code of the function; and determining whether the thread was executing the modified code when the thread was suspended. If the thread was not executing the modified code, the thread is resumed. If the thread was executing the modified code, the context of the thread is changed to redirect the thread to a saved copy of the original prologue. In this manner, unpredictable behavior of the thread is avoided.
