On reverse engineering, programming, and maybe some other stuff.
Let me preface this by saying that I am a novice in the world of rust (though I'm liking things so far!), so if I make technical mistakes please let me know and I will try to correct them. With that out of the way, lets get started. My real …
In the previous part I described one approach to 'devirtualize' function calls in a small C++ program. Naturally there were several limitations to that approach, namely that it is very manual. If the target binary contains thousands of vtables, it is not practical to manually locate the tables and create …
There are a few posts in various parts of the internet discussing reverse engineering C++, and these often address virtual functions to a large or small extent. However, I wanted to take some time to write about dealing with virtual functions in large, ‘enterprisy’ code-bases. These can often include thousands …
