Re-implementation and packaging of PyPackerDetect
Project description
PyPackerDetect
Detect packers on PE files using heuristics and signatures.
A complete refactoring of this project to a Python package with a console script to detect whether an executable is packed.
pefile is used for PE parsing. peid is used as implementation of PEiD.
$ pip install pypackerdetect
$ pypackerdetect --help
[...]
usage examples:
- pypackerdetect program.exe
- pypackerdetect program.exe -b
- pypackerdetect program.exe --low-imports --unknown-sections
- pypackerdetect program.exe --imports-threshold 5 --bad-sections-threshold 5
Detection Mechanisms
- PEID signatures
- Known packer section names
- Entrypoint in non-standard section
- Threshhold of non-standard sections reached
- Low number of imports
- Overlapping entrypoint sections
