Dynamically Computed Target Address Anti-Disassembly

Dynamically computed target addresses is an anti-disassembling technique that involves using dynamically computed addresses as the targets of branch instructions in a program. This can make it difficult for a disassembler to accurately reconstruct the original instructions of the program, as the disassembler will not be able to determine the correct target addresses for the branch instructions without actually executing …

Disassembly Desynchronization Anti-Disassembly

Disassembly desynchronization is a technique that is used to prevent disassemblers from accurately reconstructing the original instructions of a program. It involves the creative use of instructions and data in a way that breaks the normal, predictable sequence of instructions in a program. This can cause disassemblers to become "desynchronized" and generate incorrect disassembly output.

For example, suppose a …

Inserting Garbage Bytes Anti-Disassembly

Garbage bytes are random or meaningless data that is inserted into a program's code in order to make reverse engineering and analysis more difficult. This is an anti-disassembling technique, as the insertion of these random bytes can cause disassemblers to misinterpret the code and produce incorrect disassembly results.

The insertion of garbage bytes is usually used in conjunction with …

Register Reassignment Anti-Disassembly

Register reassignment is a technique used in code obfuscation and anti-disassembling to make reverse engineering and analysis more difficult. It involves modifying the instructions in a program to use different registers in different versions or instances of the program. This can make it more difficult for a reverse engineer or disassembler to understand the program's behavior, as the register assignments …

Code Transposition Anti-Disassembly

Code transposition is a technique used by malware authors to evade detection and analysis by rearranging the instructions of a piece of code without changing its behavior. This technique is used to make the code more difficult to read and understand for disassemblers and reverse engineers, as well as to hide the true intent of the code.

There are …

Misusing Structured Exception Handlers Anti-Disassembly

Misusing Structured Exception Handlers is a technique used by malware to make it more difficult for security analysts to reverse engineer the code. Structured Exception Handlers (SEH) are functions that are used to handle exceptions in a program. These can be misused by malware to fool disassemblers and make it harder to analyze the code. One way this is done …

Thwarting Stack-Frame Analysis Anti-Disassembly

Thwarting Stack-Frame Analysis is a technique used by malware to make it more difficult for security analysts to reverse engineer and analyze the code. A stack frame is a collection of data associated with a function, including local variables, arguments passed to the function, and the return address. Disassemblers can use information from the stack frame to understand a function's …
