Update: XORSearch Version 1.6.0

Filed under: My Software,Update — Didier Stevens @ 1:26

A couple of new features:

  • searching for Unicode
  • searching for Hex code
  • printing of neighbouring bytes

Unicode support is rather simple: I consider Unicode as ASCII with 2 bytes per character, last byte always equals 0.

Usage case of hexcode search: search for embedded and encoded PE-file by searching for the PE-magic bytes MZ:

XORSearch -h malware.exe 50450000

Remember that XORSearch is not limited to win32, you can compile it on *nix too: cc -o XORSearch XORSearch.c
