[unpackme] Armadillo v6.0.4 Custom Build

Recommended Posts

My shameless unpacked / fixed dump using Armageddon v1.4

(note: I would have reduced PE size eliminating useless Arma sections,

but we are still finalizing this functionality)

Special thanks to *EvOlUtIoN* for the idea of jumping

to a code cave and injecting environment variables.

Secured sections will require a key and are NOT unlocked.

cheers

Seems I'm wasting my time... Only thing worth crap are the SECURE sections, otherwise it might as well be UPX....

Silicon Realms needs to get its act together and stop ripping us off with new pay to upgrade versions (6.x) that are pretty much 5.x.

Haha, what about sharing a Custom Build of Armadillo, simply without a key to save your privacy, that

I've been saying this for a long time. What I also find bad is they charge the same price for the 64bit version to existing owners of the 32bit version.

To be fair though Armadillo has Software Passport which is a bonus for software developers and I think it is why Armadillo is still popular today...

I've been porting our important apps from Arm to WinLicense.. At least there are less people to unpack it (and no click here to own the target tools, that I know of).

Fungus, im lost for words!

secured sections are unpacked without a valid key? wow! very impressive, indeed!

do you mind to share some hints into the right direction how it is possible ;)

There are several bugs that allow unpacking without any valid keys. Some are harder to exploit, some are easier. But they have been existed for more than 2 years and they remain private that's why they still exist.

i accept that, but all i asked for was a hint - not a tut...

as i asked for a hint where the secured sections are managed (in the armadillo unpackme 6.0.0 thread) Fungus has no problem

to share that.

"If you get anywhere with it , please share =]" - his words...

i dont know what's so special on this topic - i think nanos e.g. are much more used in the wild and you find enough tuts about that. same to debug-blocker and copymem-II and all those stuff. even the tools out there works fine.

nothing has changed dramatically - so again: what is so special on secured sections?

but don't get me wrong! as i said before - i accept that and it is ok.

no hard feelings, ok? :)

Secured sections are actually used quite a lot, and it is not easy to do this =]

I worked with armadillo a long time now, and am quite proud to do this. But I will keep how to do it private, so that the holes remain.

are they? - oops - then that's why there are always missing functions in my dumps :D

(just kidding) (?)

you can surely be proud of it!

im working with it a long time too and i've discovered few things by myself so i think i know what i'm talking about.

but without a clue and all alone - nope - can't spend so much time on it...

that's the advantage of team-working....

It's a pity but however - that's the way it is. :(

I'm going to sound dumb but, how do I get this unpacker to work. I saw the demo but, all I got was one exe I didn't get the unpackme.arm file. I also have version 5.42 Public Build. I can't find 6.0.0 anywhere.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

EDIT: I see the reason is since I don't have the correct version. I found 6.0.0.6 but, it's only unlocking the first 2.

He's keeping it private for a reason - maybe once they've patched the bugs he will tell you how it's done?

Thanks so much for this!

I hope this question isn't off-topic, I'm not sure where to ask this. Is there a fix to reduce the size of the output protected file? Example: After protecting the file with Armadillo it makes the original 52kb file to 600+ kb.

I dont see how this, or your previous question, fits into this thread. :cc_confused:

You are not supposed to ask random questions about armadillo in any thread that happens to include "armadillo" in the description.... :rolleyes:

maybe. would be nice.

on the other hand - maybe once before they've patched the bugs i've found them by myself? B)

but i don't spend much time in it at the moment. you know - more haste, less speed...

perhaps i search for the bugs in an older version - 2.20 or so (hopefully they exist in 2.20. ;) )

there is less junkcode in there...

i did the same with copymem-II (or was it 2.52? can't remember) and that was a big help for me to bypass

that *** in newer versions.

time will tell...

i let you know - oops - no i don't.

if i ever know how to do it, "I'll keep how to do it private, so that the holes remain." :D

@Fungus

sorry to quote you - don't be cross with me, ok?
