How to identify the process and thread being called in a COM call from a thread stack

  • Artikel

I’ve just published a post on how to manually identify which classic ASP page is being processed by a specific thread. Following the same idea you can also identify COM calls being made by a thread. As always, first identify the thread doing the COM call you want investigate and then look at the thread stack as below:

Now identify the function call ole32!CRpcChannelBuffer::SendReceive2 above. Grab the first parameter and run the following command:

0:032> dd poi(0011825c +18)+8 l2

000de8d0 00000d8c 00000ddc

The output above represents the process ID (in this case the hex number 0xd8c) of the server process for this COM call and the thread ID (in this case the hex number 0xddc).

Notice that the output values are in hex format and your PID (the one you identify by using task manager, tlist, tasklist etc) info will probably be in decimal format so you still need to make the convertion:

In this case the PID of the server process being called in this thread would be 3462 = 00000d86.
