Obfuscated patches
Posted by Dennis Yurichev on Apr 21
Hi.
Just curious: will we see one day obfuscated patches
(in a manner of obfuscated code) to make reverse engineer’s
(who would like to create exploits after security patches out)
work harder?

Hello,
If it’s a patch why do you need to obfuscate ? Patch the binary and bindiff

If you are talking about starting to obfuscate the resulting binaries,
that’s a dark way to go… Waste of cpu cycles, compatibility problems, etc
etc etc…
