Missed Total Commander on Linux so I built my own with the same look and feel on Linux and Windows github.com/pgarba/immc

New paper highlights SATURN, a framework we developed for automated malware deobfuscation! Researchers call it the "most promising method," proving it natively clears MBA masks, opaque predicates, and flattened code via LLVM IR + SMT 😎 jisp.spbstu.ru/userfiles/fil…

Check out this interesting paper. We’re thinking about doing something similar! arxiv.org/abs/1909.01752

DeepSeek R1 is giving correct simplifications for several MBAs I tried. Really impressive!

Reversing virtualized binaries is no easy task. Our intern Jack took on exploring automated devirtualization techniques, and presents in our latest blog post an efficient, modular, taint-based approach that leverages LLVM IR: blog.thalium.re/posts/llvm-p…

(1) Decided to release the source code for my LLVM-based static binary analysis framework (github.com/Colton1skees/Dna). It implements, among other things, an iterative control flow graph reconstruction algorithm heavily inspired by SATURN, using Remill and Souper.

In recent ntoskrnl.exe update from KB5041587 @Microsoft introduced "Feature_Servicing_AmdDisableEarlyIBPB__private_IsEnabledDeviceUsage" and enables IBPB later on in the KiUpdateSpeculationControl function. Wondering why this gives a huge performance boost on >=Zen3 CPUs ?!

It seems that Intel CPU specific settings were also applied in AMD CPUs and this piece of code is now wrapped with an "if" statement.

Thats the piece of code that was also applied for AMD and is skipped now.

Just spotted two otters covered in oil after the vessel accident here in Singapore this morning. It looks really bad 😢 #singapore #oil
