Abstract

Software packer has been used effectively to hide the original code inside a binary executable of any malware, making it more diffcult for existing signature based anti virus software to detect malicious code inside the executable. In this Thesis, we propose Mal-Xtract, a method to detect the end of unpacking routine and extract original code from packed binary executable using Memory Analysis running in an software emulated environment. The extracted code will be validated using similarity and entropy calculation that compare the extracted body with original body. Our experiment results show that at least 97% of the original code from the various packed executable with different software packers could be extracted.
