Abstract

Executable files packing is a process used for compression or protection of these files. The behavior of the packed executable file is difficult to analyze, therefore the packed file needs to be unpacked at first. This work deals with the design and implementation of a generic unpacker that is part of the decompilation chain in the AVG's Retargetable Decompiler. The goal of this work is to create the generic unpacker of executable files, which would be easily extensible, platform and architecture independent, and its ouput would be decompilable. The heuristic analyses are proposed and implemented to achieve the decompilability of the ouput. The results are comparable with the other unpackers used in practice.
