[EXCEPTION] EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION

Opened this issue · 7 comments

Apon using the program, it returns this error twice -

[EXCEPTION] EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION

Any help?

I'm very new to reverse engineering, thanks! :)

Can you share the sample?

Here's the program I'm trying to debug - https://mega.nz/#!MTQnHT5S!VywIRyKWxFAkMAUmwrFFGjfZQvFgOU62yQ6pxSJVjo8

Thanks for the quick reply

The sample is protected by Obsidium software protection system,
maybe it checks the existence of a debugger via reading PEB.BeingDebugged field or something similar and behaves differently, at this moment makin cannot detect such direct memory accesses,
or maybe that's an intended exception to detect if a debugger is there or not

Okay thanks! Just for some help, how did you figure out it was protected by Obsidium?

Thanks for all the help 👍 I've just started learning reverse engineering and it's all really confusing right now.

I recommend this book: https://beginners.re/RE4B-EN.pdf for RE
