Open Source Mac Obfuscators

Obfuscar is an open-source .NET obfuscator released under MIT license. It provides basic obfuscation features that help secure secrets in a .NET assembly. An obfuscation tool designed for most .NET developers. Hide everything private, while keep everything public. You can achieve such simply via default settings. Hide class/method/property/event names that you don't want to expose. This is irreversible. String contents can be compressed so that end users won't easily learn them. However, this is reversible by certain tools.

Mixin is a trait/mixin framework for Java using ASM and hooking into the runtime classloading process via a set of pluggable built-in or user-provided services. Built-in services currently support Mojang's LegacyLauncher system, though this is deprecated in favor of ModLauncher by cpw, which has greater extensibility and has support for Java 8 and later. Additional documentation for individual features and annotations can be found in the extensive Javadoc. For additional help use the channel #mixin on the Sponge Discord Server. For handling obfuscation tasks, Mixin provides an Annotation Processor which works at compile time to generate obfuscation mappings for your toolchain to apply. If using Gradle 5 or later, annotation processors are no longer automatically loaded from compile configurations and must be specified explicitly via annotationProcessor configurations.

The Miasm intermediate representation is used for multiple task: emulation through its jitter engine, symbolic execution, DSE, program analysis, but the intermediate representation can be a bit hard to read. We will present in this article new tricks Miasm has learned in 2018. Among them, the SSA/Out-of-SSA transformation, expression propagation and high-level operators can be joined to “lift” Miasm IR to a more human-readable language. We use graphviz to illustrate some graphs. Its layout does not always totally conform with a reverse engineering “ideal view”, so please be tolerant of those odd graphs. Miasm is not the first tool to implement this feature. But, well, as the tool already had everything needed to implement DSE, it was just a matter of time before these features landed in the main branch.
