This is hacked apart to build on c++11 - execute |python amalgamate.py --polyfill| to regenerate the files used by sourcemod
SafetyHook is a C++23 procedure hooking library for Windows x86 and x86_64 systems. It aims to make runtime procedure hooking as safe as possible while maintaining simplicity of its implementation. To that end it currently does:
- Stops all other threads when creating or deleting hooks
- Fixes the IP of threads that may be affected by the creation or deletion of hooks
- Fixes IP relative displacements of relocated instructions (eg.
lea rax, [rip + 0x1234]
) - Fixes relative offsets of relocated instructions (eg.
jmp 0x1234
) - Widens short branches into near branches
- Handles short branches that land within the trampoline
- Uses a modern disassembler engine that supports the latest instructions
- Has a carefully designed API that is hard to misuse
SafetyHook can be added via CMake's FetchContent
, git submodules, or copied directly into your project using the amalgamated builds. SafetyHook requires Zydis to function.
This is the easiest way to use safety hook. You can find amalgamated builds on the releases page. Simply download the ZIP file containing Zydis (or without Zydis if you already have it in your project) and copy the files into your project.
You may need to define ZYDIS_STATIC_BUILD
if you're using the build with Zydis included.

If you want SafetyHook to fetch Zydis you must enable the CMake option -DSAFETYHOOK_FETCH_ZYDIS=ON
.
#include <iostream>
#include <safetyhook.hpp>
__declspec(noinline) int add(int x, int y) {
return x + y;
}
SafetyHookInline g_add_hook{};
int hook_add(int x, int y) {
return g_add_hook.call<int>(x * 2, y * 2);
}
int main() {
std::cout << "unhooked add(2, 3) = " << add(2, 3) << "\n";
// Create a hook on add (This uses SafetyHook's easy API).
g_add_hook = safetyhook::create_inline(reinterpret_cast<void*>(add), reinterpret_cast<void*>(hook_add));
std::cout << "hooked add(3, 4) = " << add(3, 4) << "\n";
g_add_hook = {};
std::cout << "unhooked add(5, 6) = " << add(5, 6) << "\n";
return 0;
}
