Intermediate-Representation Recovery from Low-Level Code
Thomas Reps, Gogul Balakrishnan, and Junghee Lim
The goal of our work is to create tools that an analyst can use to
understand the workings of COTS components, plugins, mobile code, and
DLLs, as well as memory snapshots of worms and virus-infected code.
This paper describes how static analysis provides techniques that can
be used to recover intermediate representations that are similar to
those that can be created for a program written in a high-level
language.
