Sure! I'll try it tomorrow!

I have two or three different MSC compilers (x86 and x64) installed along with a quite recent nightly upp build, so I can get some useful coverage on the test. Some documentation on the changes required on my code would be useful too. Do you have working ProtectTest and ProtectEncrypt packages available for easy testing?

Best regards,

Tom

Of course!

I'll attach here the 3 packages.
Let me know if it's all ok for you... by now I'm trying to semi-fix the old web package, as the protect server and my paypal IPN server both rely on it Sad
BTW, if you know some other ScgiServer implementation that doesn't rely on old web package you're more than wellcome...

(docs are NOT updated!!!)

Hi again,

I forgot the XED package, you need it for new protect code!

Thanks Max!

I'll test it tomorrow.

Hi Max,

Here are the results from testing Release builds with different compilers:

Without PROTECT flag:
2 * X = 10
2 * X = 20
S is : Hello
S is : Massimo
<--- Finished in (0:01.40), exitcode: 3221225477 --->

With PROTECT flag:
2 * X = 10
2 * X = 20
S is : Hello
<--- Finished in (0:12.26), exitcode: 3221225477 --->


For protected version, the ProtectTest.log file looks like this:

* C:\upp-11979\out\MyApps\MSBT17x64.Protect\ProtectTest.exe 06.06.2018 09:27:24, user: tom

START DECRYPT
JMP NOT FOUND
START DECRYPT
JMP NOT FOUND
START DE-OBFUSCATE
JMP NOT FOUND
START OBFUSCATE

1. On protected version "S is : Massimo" did not print out.

2. Neither 32-bit nor 64-bit version printed out the encrypted data.

3. Please note the 12 second execution time on protected version. It started out fast but took quite a while to complete.

The behavior was exactly the same with MSVS15, MSVS15x64, MSVS17, MSVS17x64, MSBT17 and MSBT17x64.

I think obfuscation needs some tuning as well as encrypted data processing.

In addition to present-day compiler and U++ support, I'm especially pleased to see that the 64-bit variant is now emerging! Good work Max! Smile

Thanks and best regards,

Tom

Update: The 12 second long execution time was revealed in Task Manager to involve running "Windows Error Reporting"... I guess this is some sort of a crash and Windows 10 calls home immediately.

Update2: Data encryption/decryption works OK. The problem is entirely in obfuscation; When both obfuscated calls are commented out, encrypted data prints out OK and exit code becomes zero.

Hi Tom,

I just fixed it for multithreading, but on my application it seems to work good.
BTW, I don't use obfuscation on it, just encryption.
Could you please do a couple of tests for me ?

1) comment out all calls besides the FIRST obfuscated() one
2) run it, check if it runs ok and look at log file
3) de-comment also the SECOND obfuscated() call
4) run it again

I'm attaching here the modified files for MT safe version

EDIT: please enable the PROTECT_DEBUG macro, if it's not enabled. You should get the assembly listing of code being encrypted
inside the log file

EDIT2: without the PROTECT flag the data decryption is obviously disabled, you just get an empty string... maybe I could return the
original string.

Hi,

First I applied your MT patched files.

Now calling only 'obfuscated("hello");'
S is : Hello
<--- Finished in (0:12.26), exitcode: 3221225477 --->


So it prints out, but crashes on exit. Log looks like this:

* C:\upp-11979\out\MyApps\MSVS17x64.Protect\ProtectTest.exe 06.06.2018 10:21:40, user: tom

START DE-OBFUSCATE
JMP NOT FOUND
START OBFUSCATE


After enabling both obfuscated -calls I still get:
S is : Hello
<--- Finished in (0:12.43), exitcode: 3221225477 --->


And log looks like this:
* C:\upp-11979\out\MyApps\MSVS17x64.Protect\ProtectTest.exe 06.06.2018 10:25:41, user: tom

START DE-OBFUSCATE
JMP NOT FOUND
START OBFUSCATE


So it crashes again when re-obfuscating the code of first call.

Best regards,

Tom

hmmmm... the weird is that it prints JMP NOT FOUND when de-obfuscating the first time, and with this it can't
de-obfuscate anything.... please wait, I'll add some dump and re-post the code.
BTW, I also corrected data decrypting, now with no PROTECT flag it just extract the data and returns it.

Hi Tom,

here the code with fixed non-protected data extraction and some more debug logs.
Please run JUST one obfuscated() call and drop me the log here

Ciao

Hi Tom,

it seems that on debug mode is working and on release not, on my testing machine.
Please wait, I'll investigate a bit more...

EDIT: I guess that the linker is optimizing out the dummy calls used to identify the protected area.
I'll try to fix it

Hi Tom,

here the last Protect files.
It should work in all cases now... when you test it, please take note at the ProtectEncrypt log when you build
the test package. It should show the number of encrypted and obfuscated chunks of code and data.

The problem was (as usual...) the Microsoft linker, that threw away the empty functions in release mode, and also
replaced the last function call in a function with a jmp.

Ciao

Max

EDIT : if it tests ok I'll update it on Bazaar!

Max,

32-bit is now OK on all my compilers (MSVS15, MSVS17, MSBT17).

However, regardless of compiler, 64-bit executable crashes now immediately. Here's the MSVS17x64 ProtectEncrypt log on TheIDE compiler console:

BTW: Should I use 64-bit ProtectEncrypt to process 64-bit executables or is it OK to use the same 32-bit version as for 32-bit executables? (Now I used 32-bit ProtectEncrypt for 64-bit executables, but that's the way I did before too.)

BR,

Tom

EDIT: Yes, answering my own question: ProtectEncrypt must be 64-bit version for 64-bit executables. Now it works beautifully!!! Congratulations Max! This is an excellent step forward!!! Smile

Eheheheheh... sorry, I forgot to mention it.
The XED package (the one which decodes X86 instructions...) is configured in ProtectEncrypt for 32 bit on 32 bit build and 64 bit on 64 bit builds. It could be changed, but it's not worth the effort.

So it's all working ? If yes, I'll update the Protect package in Bazaar and drop a note about it!

Max,

One question: Do you know if there is a way to configure the post-link step to use 32-bit ProtectEncrypt for 32-bit executables and 64-bit ProtectEncrypt for 64-bit executables? WIN64 flag does not seem to work for that purpose. (Tried to add separate post-link steps to run correct ProtectEncrypt.exe)

Thanks and best regards,

Tom

Yes, please do update. I will next try to update my own software to use this new Protect!

One more detail: It seems that a 64-bit ProtectEncrypt can correctly process both 32 and 64 bit executables, while 32-bit ProtectEncrypt can only process 32-bit executables.

Best regards,

Tom

mhhh... no, I didn't try it. You could modify the ProtectEncrypt application to take another parameter to configure the XED module with the right size, but then I don't know how to sent this parameter to it.
Maybe Mirek can answer to this question... My knowledge on UPP build environment is quite limited.

Uhm... that's possible, I didn't try it.
The problem comes from XED library. I don't know if it can process correctly 32 bit code when configured in 64 bit mode.
Maybe yes.

Hi Max,

I have tried to update Protect on one of my own applications and it seems the ProtectEncrypt gets in trouble somehow.

Is it now forbidden to return; between PROTECT_START_FUNC and PROTECT_END_FUNC?

I recall it was only forbidden in OBFUSCATE before.

Best regards,

Tom

UPDATE: I removed all return;s from between PROTECT_START_FUNC and PROTECT_END_FUNC and now it gets processed properly.
UPDATE2: There is still something strange going on with OBFUSCATE. I replaced all OBFUSCATEs with PROTECT and then it works. This is only true with my own software. The ProtectTest works with both.
