Java bytecode debugging

Java bytecode debugging was bugging me for quite some time, however I’ve never done anything to really solve this problem once and for all. Around February I was desperately trying to solve some java bytecode riddle (yup, it was crackme ;p, but shhh…) and the only straightforward solution that would help with analysis was java bytecode debugger. If you query google for java bytecode debugger or java bytecode debugging, it will show two promising entries:

dirtyJOE v1.6 (c472)

It is over two years since the last update of dirtyJOE. Actually this project was pretty much dead between 10.2011 and 03.2013 (17 months!) but I’ve managed to brace myself and put some new features together (finally!). Basically there is one new, big functionality called Restore Debug Info and bunch of small usability improvements. New version is available for download at http://dirty-joe.com, below you can find detailed changelog (with some screenshots): Continue reading →

x86 Virtualizer – Preview

Post moved from OpenRCE, original date: Friday, May 25 2007

Ok, it’s a small preview of my newest project. It was written on request for some people, but it seems that they’re not anymore interested in buying it.

http://rewolf.pl/stuff/rewolf.x86.virtualizer.preview.rar

What is it ?

It’s a demo application protected with my x86 Virtualizer:

  • vm_test.exe – clear executable
  • vm_test_vmed_01.exe – executable with one VM layer
  • vm_test_vmed_02.exe – executable with two VM layers

Future:

I’m already planning to publish all sources. When ? As soon as possible, I’ve to write documentation, and clean some part of code. The protection engine was written in C++, the loader in assembly.

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

DLLPackager v1.0

Post moved from OpenRCE, original date: Sunday, May 20 2007

Another old-new tool from me. I’ve coded it 5 months ago, but I didn’t have time to publish it. Generally it is a simple tool to bundle DLL’s with executable (similar to PEBundle or MoleBox). ‘Simple’ means there is no encryption or compression. It’s coded fully in C++ (also loader). I have plans to publish full source code of DLLPackager (in about 2 weeks), because I’ve abandoned development of this project.
