Just a small project of mine – a link directory to RCE tools, blogs and everything else more or less related to reverse engineering.

Feel free to add your own links!

ODbgScript is an extension for OllyDbg debugger (note to myself: so mr smartass there’s life except SoftICE heh
).
I was always a little bit afraid of using it becouse i thought it’s easier to write separate application than to code in this weird scripting language.
But today i need a tool to dump decrypted strings from one application (while it’s running). I wanted to start coding live dumper based on WinApi’s debug functions but i though what the heck, let’s try to do it in ODbgScript.
Here’s the result:
; declare variables
var string_ptr
var file_name
var file_index
var file_size
var x
; set breakpoint at the instruction where we
; intercepts decrypted strings
bp 401020
; initialize file_index variable
mov file_index, 0
; run application after setting the breakpoint
again:
run
; if we're here, it means application hit the breakpoint
; continue to execute script after breakpoint is hit
; (don't stop in OllyDbg)
cob
; pointer to the encrypted string is stored
; at [ebp-14] let's grab it
mov x, ebp
sub x, 14
mov x, [x]
mov string_ptr, x
; strings are null terminated, let's find its
; size so we can dump it (LEN command didn't work
; here, it always returns 0FFh)
find string_ptr, #00#
cmp $RESULT, 0
je skip_file
; calculate string size
mov x, $RESULT
sub x, string_ptr
mov file_size, x
; format file name for decrypted string, name it using
; file_index value and .txt extension, eval works almost
; like wsprintf
eval "C:\Test\{file_index}.txt"
mov file_name, $RESULT
; dump memory area to the file
dm string_ptr, file_size, file_name
; log action
eval "{file_index} - VA = {string_ptr},
SIZE = {file_size}"
log $RESULT;
; increase index value
inc file_index
skip_file:
; run application again after dumping
jmp again
At first it might look confusing, but after playing with it for 5 minutes you will love it, especially if you know how to code in assembler.
And if you make mistakes in the script, don’t worry, it has its own, built-in debugger, available directly from OllyDbg so you can spot every mistake you did, trace down the script, modify its variables etc.
In other words viva la ODbgScript
PS. And don’t ask me why i didn’t use it before

With the introduction of SSE5, many new 128-bit instructions have been added to the existing instruction set detailed in the AMD64 Architecture Programmer’s Manuals. Included are 46 base instructions that expand to 170 total instructions, enabling improved performance and reduced loads.

PDF Documentation:
AMD64 Technology 128-Bit SSE5 Instruction Set
I wonder in how many years will it be used as a default set of instructions?

What’s the reason to put case studies section on your web page, when none of your customers wants to share his story, to look more legitimate?

I wonder how much time will it take to them to put notepad.exe on their black list (in “Virus writing editor” category)?

Last weekend i’ve been playing with an iMac, i was checking my website against its Safari browser and i was very pleased to see it works pretty good (all things were rendered correctly).
Now Apple made Safari browser available for Windows too, but its rendering is pretty much broken, most of the sites (except apple.com) are rendered incorrectly (compared to the results from IE, Opera and FF) one way or another.
My website is missing some pieces in Safari (headers, navigation tabs):

At first i thought it’s my fault (some incorrect CSS styling or smth), but then i’ve realized even Google’s site is broken (blank spaces):

I wonder did they even test it in Windows before the release?
