Deobfuscation

When it applies

reverse-eng-binary-triage or web-client-side-signing-bypass stalls because the code is protected: a packed executable, obfuscated JS whose logic you can't follow, a WASM blob doing the real work, or a JSVMP interpreter running custom bytecode. You need to reduce the protection enough to read the logic or call the function — no further.

Why it works

Obfuscation raises the cost of reading, it doesn't change what the code does — the real behavior is still there at runtime. So the shortest path is usually dynamic: let the code deobfuscate itself (unpack in memory, evaluate the string array) and capture the result, rather than statically undoing every transform.

Method

Peel only as many layers as the task needs; stop the moment the logic is legible or the function is callable.
