Just a piece of advice for anyone trying to learn something new:

We all start very enthusiastically, dedicating time and effort. But as complexity increases, we might avoid challenges by shifting to easier tasks. While taking breaks to refresh your mind is beneficial, beware of getting stuck in a cycle of mediocrity.

For example, imagine learning about database internals or how DRAM works. Initially, it's easy to grasp, but you'll inevitably hit a wall. When this happens, explore related concepts, read articles and whitepapers, and connect the dots.

I avoid strict roadmaps and timelines for personal learning because they limit exploration. Trust me, there is no scarcity of knowledge out there, and you'll be amazed by what you discover. (Of course, this advice doesn't apply to professional deadlines; this is specifically for personal upskilling).

Remember, there's no single right way to learn

. Choose a method that you enjoy and that keeps you motivated. Just don't forget the reason you started this journey in the first place.

themida-unmutate
A Python 3 tool to statically deobfuscate functions protected by Themida, WinLicense and Code Virtualizer 3.x's mutation-based obfuscation.
The tool has been tested on Themida up to version 3.1.9. It's expected to work on WinLicense and Code Virtualizer as well.

A Binary Ninja plugin is also available here.

SCCMSecrets.py

A python utility that builds upon existing SCCM research. It goes beyond NAA credentials extraction, and aims to provide a comprehensive approach regarding SCCM policies exploitation. The tool can be executed from various levels of privileges, and will attempt to uncover potential misconfigurations related to policies distribution. It will dump the content of all secret policies encountered as well as collection variables, in addition to package noscripts hosted on the distribution points. Finally, it can be used throughout the intrusion process by configuring it to impersonate legitimate SCCM clients, in order to pivot across device collections.

For more details regarding the tool and its usage, see the associated article at: https://www.synacktiv.com/publications/sccmsecretspy-exploiting-sccm-policies-distribution-for-credentials-harvesting-initial

P.S. Another tool allowing to dump SCCM distribution point resources via HTTP: https://github.com/badsectorlabs/sccm-http-looter

Automating Malware Deobfuscation with Binary Ninja
Writing a Static Unpacker

This section will teach participants how to automate unpacking and decryption of malware samples. This will be accomplished using the Qakbot sample as an example. The Qakbot sample is packed (obfuscated using an external program that “unpacks itself”) and therefore we will perform multiple hands-on exercises to automate the extraction of Qakbot from its packed form using Binary Ninja, PEFile and Binary Refinery.
+ The first exercise will teach attendees how to use Binary Ninja to identify the encryption algorithm used by the first stage of the packer and how to extract key information to decrypt the second stage.

+The next exercise will teach attendees how to use PEFile to extract an embedded resource from the packed binary. Once extracted, the resource will then be decrypted using the key information from the first exercise

The next exercise will teach attendees how to use Binary Refinery to carve binary files from the decrypted resource
