I’m writing this from deepsec, where I just finished my talk [slides] about dynamic instrumentation. It was a wrap up of what I did last year with Pin (malware analysis, unpacking) and a Javascript deobfuscator I didn’t blog about.
Some of you might be happy to know that the tools are now available at Google code:
- Crême Brûlée: Javascript deobfuscation using dynamic instrumentation
- Tarte Tatin Tools: my set of pintools for tracing and unpacking (including an IDA Python script)
As you might guess, the tools are more prototypes than anything else, and I advise you to use them only if you feel really adventurous.
Indefinite Studies 
Interesting.
It’s a pity that Pin is not open source ;)
it sure is
Thanks Dan!
I was asking JB if you were going to make your slide available earlier! Anyway, I just wish you will blog more often, you definitely have something special to offer here compare to many of the other reversing related blogs, perhaps because I love reading theoretical or reversing concepts rather than “how to reverse xxx unpacker or how to use xxx tool to reverse xxx application” …Maybe because I am the kind of person who believe it’s much more important to learn the concept rather than the tool….
Hey Zarul, thanks a lot for stopping by. Who is JB by the way?
> it’s much more important to learn the concept rather than the tool…
I couldn’t agree more!
No problem dude~!
I was talking about Jean Baptiste of Sogeti… I believe you know him ;-)
yes indeed I know him :)
Hi Daniel,
just stopping by to say hello! Catching up with your slides as the deepsec site does not have them online yet.
ciao
