For some time, I was thinking about developing a web search plug-in for Visual Studio, so that I can search the web (mainly sites like StackOverflow, CodeProject, MSDN etc) in a non intrusive way, with out leaving the IDE. Here we go, meet Vingy 1.0 – A simple, but effective add in for Visual Studio 2010 so that you can search the web in a non intrusive way, and can filter results based on sources. Getting used to Vingy You can bring up Vingy either by clicking View->Other Windows –> Vingy Search Window from the Visual Studio IDE, or just by high lighting some text in the document and then clicking Tools –> Search Selected Text (Ctrl + 1). Searching with …

Writing "portable" code
by deepzero- 6 replies
- 5.4k views
Hey, I was analyzing an interesting piece of malware, where code, data & IAT where all mixed together in one section. IE, text string and dwords with imported addresses where pasted just in the middle of the code: Note how the "call 40100d" calls past the OpenProcess-DWORD, effectively pushing the address to that DOWRD to the stack. So after the "Pop eax", eax contains a pointer to the address of OpenProcess...and can be called via "call dword [eax]". Which is exactly what happens. This is part of the runtime importing, again the calls call past a text string, pushing a pointer to the string to the stack. Later this is used to build the import table. The b…

Introduction This book demonstrates the process of creating a language compiler for the CLR. It contains a mixture of generic compiler construction topics and topics specific to compiling for the CLR. How it came to be For many years, I wanted to write a compiler. I read, or tried to read, a lot of books on the subject. Two things about these books consistently turned me off: one, they were, one and all, written using language familiar to mathematics and computer science students, but Greek (many a time, literally) to the rest of us. Two, almost all of them were full of information about sundry alternate means to read source code and understand it, but contained precious …

DebugView filter editor v1.0

DebugView filter editor v1.0 DebugView is a wonderful tool for viewing real time logging information generated by your applications. You can set filters which will colorize the output according to various rules. But the dialog for setting those filters is awful, especially now when it supports 20 filters. So I developed this little application in Python using the wxPython GUI toolkit to make it easier for me to change the filters. SITE DebugView_Filter_Editor_ 1.0.rar

It was an amazing adventure reversing QUAD RegistryCleaner 1.5.144, I would say the reversing level of it is Medium.... but you can easly reverse if you watch Lena's tuts 1~16. I am posting this for educational purpose only, and to expose new stuff [maybe] to other members... hope you'll like it, take it and modify it, do w.e you want to. you can even use the SnD function from it in your own patchers to easly make patchers, no need for stuff like dUP2, i'm just showing how easy it is to create a patcher yourself, source code is in Delphi 2010. unit main;interfaceuses Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms, Dialogs, StdCtrls, png…

Hi, For some reason i cant get a pointer to the first element of a byte array, which is driving me mad. COnsider this: BYTE searchpattern[] = {0x6d, 0x70, 0x6f, 0x72, 0x74}; cout << "deref: " << &searchpattern[0]; Isnt this supposed to dereference the first element of the array? Instead it prints the whole array. or />http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hbswzcs5%28VS.80%29.aspx BYTE* pbArr = &searchpattern[0]; cout << "asdf: " << pbArr; same thing... or BYTE* pbArr = &searchpattern[0]; cout << &pbArr; This prints a pointer to 1 dword before the actual array... any help would be appreciated, chances are …

[DELPHI]Return offset by AOB
by 0xFF- 1 reply
- 4.9k views
This is a little silly code that will return the offset by searching it via a static array of size 7 byte(s). Made it for the patcher of QUAD RegistryCleaner 1.5.144, more to come, this code is first RLS, and could be optimized and tweaked using threads and better searching patterns, future updates to come. Usage: ShowMessageFmt( '%x', [RetOffset(lol)]); lol: array [0..6] of byte = ($FF, $FF, $FF, $FF, $FF, $FF, $FF); <-- change FF's to your needs. you can modify it and make it search bigger buffers, but be ware of getting "Eof", calculate file size and div by the amount of searches you're going to perfom. type TStaticArray = ARray [0..6] Of Byte;function RetOffset(co…

Hi, i have a decimal number in an int variable, which i want to convert to hex and save in a DWORD, ie: int a = 4660; -> == DWORD b = 1234; I was not able to find a simple way to do this conversion. It works via strtol or sprintf, but there has to be an easier way? After all, the int variable is stored in hex in memory... deep

Visual Studio backup macro

Visual Studio backup macro Macro to backup the contents of a solution with a simple click Introduction Have you ever screwed up the code of your project and needed to revert to a past version? Unfortunatelly, Visual Studio doesn't has a backup option. If you need to do so, you have to manually copy your solution folder to another folder or media. Tired of doing that, I decided to make a backup macro: my goal was to add a context menu option to Solution Explorer, to automatize the process of copying its files to the destination location. Background As described above, this adds an item to the solution context menu(named 'Make backup'). When this option is selected, it cle…

Why Breakpoint does not hit in Visual Studio? Sometimes while you try to debug a problem in Visual Studio, breakpoints might not hit, and that's annoying. I've prepared a check list that you can follow to make the breakpoints hit when you encounter such situation: 1. Make sure that the Solution/Project is in Debug Mode and not in Release mode. 2. Set a break point at the first line of Page_Load() method within the target page (If you are working with an Asp.net application) and see if that break point hits. If yes, proceed from that break point one by one line by pressing F10 or F11(Where necessary) to make sure that, your all conditions are correctly met before execu…

TinyOS in C#

TinyOS in C# About four years ago (in the middle of the last fifteen years of writing software for money) I graduated from college. I took a round-about way through school at OIT - my four-year degree took eleven years (I actually had to make deals with four different deans to allow me to keep my credits from expiring) but it turned out OK. Some where in the middle of going to school at night we were asked in an Operating Systems class to write a "Virtual CPU and OS." More of an interpreter, we were given a description of the OS, some op-codes and an ASM-like machine language. We were to write the OS, and feed test programs into the system. It was a fun exercise and a goo…

Hi all, New here, but noticed some people here know their stuff(well close to all of them). I was hoping to find some help here. I am trying to unpack a exe which is crypted with yoda 1.3. After some searching i found CPS_UnYoda_v1.0b This did something, but not extract it. Though PEid says its yoda 1.x now instead of 1.3 But unpacking it has not worked yet, i also found Quick_Unpack_2.2.Tool But this was in russian language or something. So i have no idea if this can do it, or what error it actually gives when i try. Thanks Any helps is much appreciated.

Developing a CIL Parser

The analysis of .NET libraries in [1] suggests the development of a tool for automatic contract extraction from .NET classes. The article observes that preconditions tend to be hidden under explicit exception cases. A tool leveraging this observation has been developed as part of this diploma thesis and is documented in this report. Although the chosen approach is limited to elementary cases, the application of the tool to classes ArrayList, Stack and Queue of the .NET framework [16] reveals that, in these classes, half or more of all explicit exception cases can be addressed and the corresponding preconditions are extracted by the current implementation. The report inclu…
