ûirogen's VPCSCAN v2.93 Signature Extractor v1 Ä8-23-94ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ After writing ûirogen's TBSCAN.SIG Phile Reader, I decided to go ahead and write a similar utility for Virex PC's VPCSCAN. It wasn't nearly as phun, but none-the-less here it is. Should be self-explanitory and work phine. Note that this will only work with version 2.93, you'll need to change the offsets in the source code and recompile for newer versions. To use: Run VPC293SG with VPCSCAN.EXE in the same path, - you may want to redirect the output to a phile. Technical Info ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ There really isn't any encryption involved, however every byte of the signatures is incremented so that VPCSCAN won't detect it's own signatures. The names and signatures are stored in null separated fields, which is really useless considering that some of the viral signatures contain 0s too. I used a logic-type approach to determine if a new field was beginning, or if the null was just part of the virus signature. I'm sure there's a structure of pointers somewhere, but I don't pheel like phooling with it.
