To get obfuscator select branch what version you want

Current version: main (llvm 18.x)

Usage

How to apply obfuscation

Via function attributes

__attribute( ( __annotate__( ( "obfuscator options separated by space" ) ) ) )

Via compiler options

clang -mllvm <obfuscator option 1> -mllvm <obfuscator option 2> -mllvm <obfuscator option N> ...

Via opt options

Just pass obfuscator options. E.g. opt -fla -sub ...

Obfuscator options

Control Flow Flattening

  • fla - activates control flow flattening
  • split - activates basic block splitting. Improve the flattening when applied together
  • split_num=3 - if the pass is activated, applies it 3 times on each basic block. Default: 1

Substitution

  • sub - activate instructions substitution
  • sub_loop=3 - if the pass is activated, applies it 3 times on a function. Default : 1

Bogus Control Flow

With this obfuscation may break exception handling!

  • bcf - activates the bogus control flow pass
  • bcf_loop=3 - if the pass is activated, applies it 3 times on a function. Default: 1
  • bcf_prob=40 - if the pass is activated, a basic bloc will be obfuscated with a probability of 40%. Default: 30

String obfuscator

Very simple xor (for llvm15 cesar+xor) string obfuscation. Applied only via command line

  • sobf - activate string obfuscator pass

Integrate to Android NDK

1. Configure LLVM to add obfuscation support - you can get guide in relate branches

E.g. for Android NDK 24 you must use release/14.x:

git clone -b release/14.x https://github.com/sr-tream/obfuscator
cd obfuscator
git submodule update --init llvm-project
cd llvm-project
git apply ../obfuscator.patch

2. Build clang utils without any libs

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;lld" -DLLVM_ENABLE_LLD=ON -DLLVM_STATIC_LINK_CXX_STDLIB=ON -S llvm -B build
cmake --build build --parallel

Also you can use CMake variable LLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD to build only for required platforms, e.g. -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD="ARM" to build only for armv7

3. Install clang utils to android-ndk

cmake --install build --prefix ${ANDROID_NDK}/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/

Here ${ANDROID_NDK} is path to folder with android-ndk

4. Copy android libs to use with obfuscated LLVM

cp -r ${ANDROID_NDK}/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/lib64/clang/${ANDLLVM}/lib ${ANDROID_NDK}/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/lib/clang/${OLLVM}

Here:

  • ${ANDROID_NDK} - path to folder with android-ndk
  • ${ANDLLVM} - version of LLVM bundled with android-ndk
  • ${OLLVM} - version of installed LLVM with obfuscation support (selected on paragraph 1)

Also, you can look Wiki of original project

Major difference

1. New project tree

Original project use patched copy of LLVM.

This repo use submodule with LLVM and patch for obfuscation support.

2. Work with attribute annotation for functions

Original project doesn't support options split_num, sub_loop, bcf_loop and bcf_prob for use in function annotations. This fork support it.
