Book Description:
If you want to master the art and science of reverse engineering code with IDA Pro for security R&D or software debugging, this is the book for you. Highly organized and sophisticated criminal entities are constantly developing more complex, obfuscated, and armored viruses, worms, Trojans, and botnets. IDA Pro's interactive interface and programmable development language provide you with complete control over code disassembly and debugging. This is the only book which focuses exclusively on the world's most powerful and popular took for reverse engineering code.*Reverse Engineer REAL Hostile CodeTo follow along with this chapter, you must download a file called !DANGER!INFECTEDMALWARE!DANGER!... 'nuff said.*Download the Code!The companion Web site to this book offers up really evil code for you to reverse engineer and really nice code for you to automate tasks with the IDC Scripting Language.*Portable Executable (PE) and Executable and Linking Formats (ELF)Understand the physical layout of PE and ELF files, and analyze the components that are essential to reverse engineering.*Break Hostile Code Armor and Write your own ExploitsUnderstand execution flow, trace functions, recover hard coded passwords, find vulnerable functions, backtrace execution, and craft a buffer overflow.*Master DebuggingDebug in IDA Pro, use a debugger while reverse engineering, perform heap and stack access modification, and use other debuggers.*Stop Anti-ReversingAnti-reversing, like reverse engineering or coding in assembly, is an art form. The trick of course is to try to stop the person reversing the application. Find out how!*Track a Protocol through a Binary and Recover its Message StructureTrace execution flow from a read event, determine the structure of a protocol, determine if the protocol has any undocumented messages, and use IDA Pro to determine the functions that process a particular message.*Develop IDA Scripts and Plug-insLearn the basics of IDA scripting and syntax, and write IDC scripts and plug-ins to automate even the most complex tasks.
IDA Pro and SoftICE
This book describes how software code analysis tools such as IDA Pro are used to disassemble programs written in high-level languages and recognize different elements of disassembled code in order to debug applications in less time. Also described are the basics of Assembly language programming (MASM) and the system and format of commands for the Intel microprocessor. Aspects of disassembling, analyzing, and debugging software code are considered in detail, and an overview of contemporary disassemblers and debuggers used when analyzing executable code is provided. The basics of working with these tools and their operating principles are also included, and emphasis is placed on analyzing software code and identifying the main structure of those langua...
Describes how to design object-oriented code and accompanying algorithms that can be reverse engineered for greater flexibility in future code maintenance and alteration. Provides essential object-oriented concepts and programming methods for software engineers and researchers....
The Unofficial Guide to the World's Most Popular Disassembler
2nd Edition
No source code? No problem. With IDA Pro, the interactive disassembler, you live in a source code-optional world. IDA can automatically analyze the millions of opcodes that make up an executable and present you with a disassembly. But at that point, your work is just beginning. With The IDA Pro Book, you'll learn how to turn that mountain of mnemonics into something you can actually use.Hailed by the creator of IDA Pro as "profound, comprehensive, and accurate," the second edition of The IDA Pro Book covers everything from the very first steps to advanced automation techniques. You'll find complete coverage of IDA's new Qt-based user interfac...
