Start in Reverse Engineering

1 comments

Well given the recent take down of reverse-engineering.net for unknown reasons I’ve decided to mirror some content here. I’ve formatted out some of the bits like user posts identities and cleaned up some formatting. Other than that I have NOT link checked so not sure what are good/bad links here. Hope you find it useful and woodmann.com will probably mirror the entire archive before to long.

****START PASTIE******

What do I learn first?

—>>path 1:

1 ) visit http://video.reverse-engineering.net/ to view some reversing videos that train you in the RCE basis.
2 ) check http://www.crackmes.de to find some visual solution submitted for crackmes.
3 ) Try to repeat the shown steps, and reproduce them with other crackmes. This will bring you quickly to practice.
4 ) Learn ‘on-demand’ what you need to know over the time by using linked resources about languages, apis, forum etc. you can find in this section.

—>> path 2:

1 ) read http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ up to “Compound Data Types:” included
2 ) read http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/ up to “Graphics Device Interface” included (use the Win32 help file -below- to understand Win32 functions better)
3 ) Now you know the Win32 basis, select an Assembler Ebook/tutorial and start learning a bit of assembler -the more, the better.
4 ) Take Olly -below-, go to http://www.crackmes.de and select some crackme level 1
5 ) read the solution of 2-4 solved crackmes of level 1!!
6 ) select a solved crackme lvl1 and try to solve it. If you have problems, read the solution and TRY TO DO the steps of the solver.
7 ) goto 6 until you solve lvl1 crackmes very easily
8 ) Increase level difficulty by 1, goto 5!

Learning Assembler Language E-BOOK (
http://www.drpaulcarter.com/pcasm/ ; this site contains an *excellent* free EBOOK that teaches Assembler language from scratch. Translated in various languages. Pretty good. If you are not interested in HLA, this is a valid alternative.

Learning Assembler Language E-BOOK ©

12 lessons on Assembler and RosASM
http://rosasm.org ; RosASM Assembler contains 12 lessons on basic assembly, written with a “generic syntax” so that the beginner could, later, switch, with as few problems as possible, to the Assembler he will finally choose.

5. Debuggers/Disassemblers:
————————
(note: Ring0 means you can use it for debugging Kernel Drivers, and generally it is tougher to use than Ring3 debuggers)

OLLY
http://ollydbg.de/ ; the home of the most used Ring-3 Debugger, OllyDebug. A must have.
(ps: you can find a link to the Win32 help file below)

SYSER
http://www.sysersoft.com/ ; Syser is an excellent, visual Ring0 (and Ring3) debugger. It is not yet very stable but, if it works for you, it’s very cool.

WinDBG

http://www.Micro$oft...ng/default.mspx

Home of WinDBG debugger (Ring0 too). Seen the site, I don’t think I need to add much more…

IDA
http://www.datarescue.com/ ; IDA home. IDA is an Interactive DeAssember, used to perform a static analisys of the assembler code.
(IDA 4.3 free: http://www.downloadj...software/69070/)

6. Tools of Our Trade:
————————

FILEMON, REGMON

LordPE
hxxp://www.softpedia.com/get/Programming/File-Editors/LordPE.shtml This tool enables you to explore and alter PE Header. You can modify/add sections, directories, IAT, and more. It is also a Dumper Server, in case you need.

7. Linux Related:
————————
Well, the HLA home site listed above, for Assembly on Linux.

ASSEMBLER E-BOOK
http://savannah.nong...ojects/pgubook/ ; a good free ebook that teaches Assembler from scratch, explaining even what a “word” is. “Small” drawback: AT&T Assembler syntax 8O .

NASM Assembler
hxxp://nasm.sourceforge.net/ ; a free assembler for Linux. On SourceForge, so you can work TO it, if you wish.

GNU Debugger
hxxp://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/gdb.html/ ; the GNU project debugger. It can run on both Linux&Windows, and support remote debugging.

8. Suggested Books (not free)
————————

Reversing: Secrets of Reverse Engineering
http://www.amazon.co...5Fencoding=UTF8 ; a good book for learning the basis of reversing engineering. Probably one of the best to start with. Worth its money.

Rootkits : Subverting the Windows Kernel
http://www.amazon.co...5Fencoding=UTF8 ; an ADVANCED book, not a reading for a newbie -at all. Consider it when you wish to go a true ‘step ahead’ in reversing. Many techniques you otherwise learn ‘the hard way’ (sigh!) are clearly explained and shown there, a must-have. Worth its money.

9. Advanced Reversing Papers/Material
————————

Reversing an Application -Analysis Example
http://www.honeynet....ns/scan33/nico/ ; an excellent discussion on reversing and anti-reversing techniques, from PE header to anti-debugging and virtual machines.
