LLVM 13 based obfuscator

This is a new and simplified implementation of a larger project, its development began in 2014 and was used to protect software.
The project should only be used for research.

FYI

Take a look at obfuscation with NAND/NOR using C++ templates.
Some of these passes were originally developed for LLVM 3.x, later ported to newer versions. Therefore, all function passes have not been properly tested after a complete reimplementation.
Simple VM constructor, full emulation of addition, subtraction, bit shifts, mul, div, comparison using NAND and NOR are excluded from the project. In any case, they slow down the code quite a lot.
Machine function passes for the Intel X86 target have also been removed from the current release.

Features

Instruction emulation with NAND / NOR
Random basic block splitting and reordering
Stack based branch instruction indirection
Global variable ⟶ stack migration (Only CallInst handled)

Checkout

git clone git@github.com:Deniskore/llvm.git --branch llvm_13

Download Clang 13 and extract it to llvm/projects directory

Compilation requirements

The project is successfully built on Windows and Linux.

CMake 3.13.4+
Ninja
LLD (For Linux, to reduce memory usage while linking)
GCC / Clang / MSVC with full C++17

Compilation

cd llvm && mkdir build && cd build
cmake -G "Ninja" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-fuse-ld=lld" ..
cmake --build . --target clang

Usage

If you want to switch to obf compiler:

export CC=../clang
export CXX=../clang++

To turn on obfuscation for a specific function, you should use the option -mllvm -obfuscate="func1,func2"

clang -O2 file.cpp -mllvm -obfuscate="func1,func2"

Example

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

static const int TEST[2] = {12345789, 9876543};

int main()
{
    int test_array[32] = {};
    int a = rand();
    int b = rand();
    printf("a=%d b=%d\n", a, b);
    int g = b ^ a;
    printf("g=%d\n", g);
    if (a > g)
    {
        goto test;
    }
bla:
    printf("12345");
test:
    printf("123456");

    test_array[31] = g + a;
    test_array[30] = test_array[31];
    printf("%d %p %d\n", test_array[31], &test_array[31] + 12345, test_array[30]);
    printf("%d %d\n", TEST[0], TEST[1]);

    if (a != b)
        printf("a!=b %d %d\n", a, b);
    else
    {
        printf("a==b %d %d\n", a, b);
    }
}

IDA Pro 7.6 produces the following decompilation output:

void __fastcall main()
{
  int v0; // [rsp+5950h] [rbp+58D0h] BYREF
  char v1[16]; // [rsp+59DDh] [rbp+595Dh] BYREF
  char v2[8]; // [rsp+5A56h] [rbp+59D6h] BYREF

  char v5[8]; // [rsp+5ADCh] [rbp+5A5Ch] BYREF
  int *v6; // [rsp+5B00h] [rbp+5A80h]

  strcpy(v2, "%d %d\n");
  strcpy(v3, "123456");
  strcpy(v4, "12345");
  strcpy(v5, "g=%d\n");
  strcpy(v1, "a=%d b=%d\n");
  v6 = &v0;
  JUMPOUT(0x14000720Fi64);
}

Contributing

If you encounter an error, please try to minimize the code reproducing the problem and localize the error, then create an issue.

Support

I have no plans to buy a Mac specifically for this project, but you can change it and then full Apple LLVM + Clang support will be added. It is also possible that I will add new obfuscation passes.
