RT @offensive_con: Rolf Rolles (@RolfRolles) will be teaching his ‘Static Analysis of C++’ training in this year’s Offensivecon. Sign up…

I like LLMs, but hallucination is getting worse. I asked o1 to explain a niche topic in compilers research. It fabricated a new topic in statistical optimization instead, so convincingly that I would think it was real if I didn't know better:

RT @Dinosn: Deobfuscation of Lumma Stealer

RT @ColtonSkees: (1) Decided to release the source code for my LLVM-based static binary analysis framework (. It im…

New blog entry: C++ Unwind Metadata: A Hidden Reverse Engineering Bonanza

I would like to give a talk related to some pure reverse engineering research I did this year, but haven't been paying attention to industry conferences for a while. Apart from next year's RECON, which venues might accept such a talk?

RECON ended too soon like it always does, and I'm sad I'll have to wait another year to see and meet you all again. Safe travels and best wishes to you all!

RT @PLDI: PLDI will also host the third EGRAPHS workshop on Monday, Jun 24. The data structure that powers SMT solvers is now seeing use in…

@is_eqv The graphs are CFGs so yes, generally the indegree is low. Only at or nearby the function epilog does the indegree tend to be higher (e.g. multiple return statements).

@AzakaSekai_ I thought so! So it's not that Ghidra shows exception handlers, rather, this example's pathological characteristics conspired to show one in the decompilation. (Normally, catch handlers are at the end of .text, so they would not be physically adjacent to the main function body.)

@AzakaSekai_ Go to the function definition for `_CxxThrowException` in your binary and press `F`. Is the "No Return" box checked? If not, check it and re-analyze.

@AzakaSekai_ It is possible to show try, catch, wind, and unwind blocks in Hex-Rays -- -- but it's a very non-trivial R&D exercise.

@gannimo @herbertbos No, it was not a space issue. Their complaint was that my citations were not to academic publications.

@rgiacobazzi Congratulations, and condolences to Uni. Verona on their loss!

RT @Binary_Gecko: Congrats to @RolfRolles for winning a DJI drone! No one else used the static analysis solution for the Linux Challenge 💯💯…
