Analyzing some logic dumps, a little stuck by ketin0in ReverseEngineering

[–]igor_sk 7 points8 points ago

What is stumping me is the fact that the values change so little but multiple lines change their data so much and it's not in line with regular binary expression of the values.

Because it's most likely you're not seeing the temperature values here but commands to toggle the LCD segments on or off. Usually each pin controls a segment, but apparently there's not enough pins here. So possibly a couple of pins multiplex to select which set of segments is currently active.

For example, anyone want to have a discussion about Tabs v. Spaces again?

Bring it on.

Wow, you're right. That sucks :/

Intercepting System Calls on x86_64 Windows by jbremerin ReverseEngineering

[–]igor_sk 0 points1 point ago

Really, user-mode single-point syscall hooking on Win32? Do tell.

I will answer myself. I forgot that on recent Windows all ntdll wrappers do go through the SystemCallStub pointer and I'm guessing it's writable (but I can't check right now). So it seems a similar approach is possible.

on x86_64

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

the same can be applied on x86

Nice title bait, except your "Universal System Call Hooking" only works for WOW64. Disappointed.

Can anyone recommend a good strategy for runtime analysis on Java files? by questionallthingsin ReverseEngineering

[–]igor_sk 2 points3 points ago

So basically I was hoping for something that would do the runtime for me so I can grab some quick indicators.

That's why I linked to bytecode debuggers.

Really weird. I'm not in US btw. Have you tried another browser?

The link works for me. Try Google cache maybe?

So I have to install Chrome just to try it? I'll pass, thanks.

hackme: Deconstructing an ELF File by the_droidin ReverseEngineering

[–]igor_sk 2 points3 points ago

Instead of -D, at least he should have used -d to disassemble code section only. And it's still possible to debug a file without symbols in GDB, you just need to put breakpoints on addresses. Though I hear GDB still has issues with files without section headers (not the case here).

The Development of the C Language* by naghizadehin programming

[–]igor_sk 0 points1 point ago

I'm under the impression that C# is essentially Java except made by Microsoft.

C# was authored by Anders Hejlsberg, the creator of Turbo Pascal and later Objective Pascal/Delphi. He also worked on Visual J++. Thus C# is a blend of the ideas from C, Java and Delphi. For example, the properties were lifted almost directly from Delphi, as well as the try...finally statement.

Python program for reverse engineering/analysis of binary protocols. Helps to identify where the locations of fields and their data types. by phreakociousin ReverseEngineering

Yes, I found it later. However, the PDFs are not available (temporarily?). Do you have them somewhere?

Looks interesting, but I hope you'll fix the screenshot (that tiny gray font on black background is about impossible to read).

P.S. old link seems dead, is there a mirror?

Adding comments or renaming variables does nothing to obfuscate the resulting binary code.
