Crack Me.

[kao]

Sure, original crackme works, since it's wrapped into 32-bit native code wrapper thus causing crackme to be executed as 32bits code inside WoW64 subsystem. As I wrote before, I believe that 64-bit bug was fixed in final version of .NET Reactor.

In the meantime - could you please try changing CliHeader.Flags value from 1 to 3 and see if it helps? You can use CFFExplorer for that or a HEX editor and change byte at file offset 0x418. It should work but I just don't have a 64-bit system to test it with..

It works. As far as I understand u have to directly patch the protection code to run the dumped assembly at all. And if u want to patch the actual crackme methods u have to invest more time (decrypt/patch/encrypt the managed/native code..resign).

u have to directly patch the protection code to run the dumped assembly at all.

There are 2 equally good options - patch the code that initializes decryption keys OR decrypt all the data and encrypt with new keys. In this solution I chose the former, more complex method as it required less changes to executable. The latter is simpler and would allow resigning but requires more changes to exe.

if u want to patch the actual crackme methods u have to invest more time (decrypt/patch/encrypt the managed/native code..resign).

Hmm, I'm not sure what you mean by that. I already patched actual crackme method responsible for serial check, it accepts any serial now. It's not that hard to patch necrobit'ed method, you just need to figure out the simple data format used in necrobit table.

Sorry, did'n recognize that you already patched the method as you wrote "I'm too lazy to fix all the necrobits, strings, resources and build a new assembly." in the readme.txt.

@Farjump: Thanks for comments. I added clarifications in readme.txt and fixed 64bit issue. Download link updated in original post.

can u post your solution again ? plz

PS. I got few requests for full solution/unpacker. What I can tell you for sure - I won't make Reziriz2 or anything like that. What I could make is a detailed description how Reactor works and how to defeat it. I'd love to hear from you all - is anyone interested?

wow that would be nice stuff to read through ,) thx

I don't mean to bump, but "a detailed description of how Reactor works and how to defeat it" would be great.
