CAPEC 描述
An adversary discovers the structure, function, and composition of an object, resource, or system by using a variety of analysis techniques to effectively determine how the analyzed entity was constructed or operates. The goal of reverse engineering is often to duplicate the function, or a part of the function, of an object in order to duplicate or "back engineer" some aspect of its functioning. Reverse engineering techniques can be applied to mechanical objects, electronic devices, or software, although the methodology and techniques involved in each type of analysis differ widely.
CAPEC 信息
前提条件
Access to targeted system, resources, and information.所需技能
Understanding of low level programming languages or technologies can be very helpful. For example, when reverse engineering a binary file, an understanding of assembly languages can help to determine the purpose and inner-workings of the code. Another example is reverse engineering an application that relies on networking. Here, an understanding networking protocols can provide insight into application details.所需资源
The technical resources necessary to engage in reverse engineering differ in accordance with the type of object, resource, or system being analyzed.缓解措施
Employ code obfuscation techniques to prevent the adversary from reverse engineering the targeted entity.相关弱点
| 弱点名称 | |
|---|---|
CWE-1278 |
Missing Protection Against Hardware Reverse Engineering Using Integrated Circuit (IC) Imaging Techniques Information stored in hardware may be recovered by an attacker with the capability to capture and analyze images of the integrated circuit using techniques such as scanning electron microscopy. |
