Hi all,

I start to use dnlib for the first time, and i wanted to made a string desofucator for an unknown malware packer.

I list the string inside the binary like this:

        public static void DecryptStrings(ModuleDef module)
        {
            int count = 0;

            //List module Types
            foreach (TypeDef type in module.Types)
            {
                //List methods
                foreach (MethodDef method in type.Methods)
                {
                    //Remove empty method
                    if (!method.HasBody)
                        break;

                    //Check instructions
                    for (int i = 0; i < method.Body.Instructions.Count; i++)
                    {
                        //List strings

                        if (method.Body.Instructions[i].OpCode == OpCodes.Ldstr)
                        {
                            if (method.Body.Instructions[i + 1].OpCode == OpCodes.Call)                              
                            {
                                var cryptedstring = method.Body.Instructions[i].Operand.ToString();
                                string decryptedstring = DecryptString(cryptedstring);

But the problem, not all the string are listed, i saw a lot of other wide strings witch the command line string -el binary, do you known why?

Other question, i wanted to patch in memory the binary, have you an example?

Thank you.

use module.GetTypes() instead using module.Types .( GetTypes return all types including nested types)

for patching in memory take a look at Harmony

It's better, I have more strings than before (before 134 and with mod.GetTypes() 184) but not all of them

Most likely "ldstr" instruction is not always followed by "call" instruction.
