ARTeam: Primer on Reverse Engineering Symbian 3rd Applications v10
by Shub-Nigurrath- 12 replies

Hi all this time argv is releasing an interesting huge primer on reversing symbian s60 3rd edition applications. This was something missing from the collection of our tutorials, which I am proud to announce! The tutorial is quite huge (41Mb archive). It includes reversing of 15 applications, plus the original SIS files (so you can train yourself) and two hacking methods you can use to hack your phone. Hacking your phone means hack the system so as applications are allowed to access protected system folders, this was one of the protections added to s60 3rd symbian). Reversers need to hack their phones to ease the reversing process, users of patched apps do not need this st…

Yeah, today i've discovered it when most of tPORt releases, even with v2m's in it (with libv2 1.0 mostly), don't work on Vista and higher, so if u wanna test these releases/having some experience with them but ur just lazy too open them up in XP (or simply you don't have it), here's how i did it : I firstly opened one of tPORt's releases with v2m in it i have in my collection with IDA pro , then i've analyzed the whole EXE file . The v2m initialization must start with DirectSoundCreate function most of it , from which it was called from this : sub_406E82 proc near ; CODE XREF: sub_403DEA+38^p PS_____:00406E82 PS_____:00406E82 var_9C = d…

VMPROTECT vs. LLVM

Hi, I made a tool that interprets a vmp rsi-stream, it records the handlers (or vm instructions) and connects them via their data dependencies. This is how a JCC looks like The edges in this graph represent data dependencies. Sequences of nodes with one input and one output are collapsed into blocks. Green nodes are constant nodes. They do not depend on external values (such as CPU registers), unlike red nodes. The hex number left of a node is a step number, the right number is its result. Only const nodes (green) can have a result. The graph contains all nodes that directly or indirectly contribute to the lower right "loadcc" instruction. CMP/…

Hi, I want to start a thread to collect root-cause-analysis of vulnerabilities. I am aiming for detailed writeups of real vulnerabilities in real software, preferably in native code. This first post is going to be a bit of a mess, and I will include a bunch of interesting posts that are not technically root-cause-analysis, but I will be more clean in the future. Of course everyone is invited to join in. First a few famous blogarchives full of good content: A whole BUNCH of rootcause analysis by google project zero: https://googleprojectzero.github.io/0days-in-the-wild/rca.html same for ssd-disclosure https://ssd-di…

Necrobit To mess up the old de4dot implementation, the .Net reactor changed the P / Invoke methods, but for the unpack, you can use the SMD from Code Cracker, which will do an excellent job of this. Control Flow To break de4dot.blocks, ezriz added a number of instructions to the flow cases, which de4dot cannot process, it's easy to fix it, just repeat after me) Spoiler We are looking for a problematic instruction Go to IL Nop call and change brfalse to br.s As you can see, the cocoa is gone)) The whole thing can be automated with my favorite dnlib …

Cannot debug program that's a py2exe
by Bidasci- 6 replies
- 7.5k views
I have renamed the program to ensure anonymity. Hello everyone. I am trying to debug this program that is compiled with py2exe (you can tell from the icon) But when I try to debug it (x64dbg and others) it does not show the text. When you first run the program it gives you 3 options. One is to start mining, 2nd is to Send coins, and 3rd is to Check balance or view your public key. What I expected is that when running in a debugger it would expose what server it connects to and other ways. I can tell that the program is created in python because when ran in a debugger it shows Py commands. I have tried a method known as unpy2exe to decompile it but when I…
