VTIL-Core is the core library of the Virtual-machine Translation Intermediate Language project, an optimizing compiler infrastructure built for binary de-obfuscation and de-virtualization. Its versatile IL makes it easy to lift code from any architecture (including stack machines) and emit code back to native format at arbitrary virtual addresses.

Use cases

• devirtualize obfuscated virtual machine protected binaries
• deobfuscate compiled binaries
• lift native assembly into an intermediate representation
• optimize lifted code with an optimizing compiler
• emit optimized code back to native instructions
• build binary analysis and translation tooling

When to choose

• you need to devirtualize or deobfuscate VM-protected binaries
• you want an IL that preserves native ISA concepts like stack and physical registers
• you need to lift from arbitrary architectures including stack machines
• you want to emit code back to native format at any virtual address

When to avoid

• you need a general-purpose compiler backend like LLVM for normal compilation
• you need a mature, fully documented toolchain - the project is still incomplete
• you need a ready-to-use deobfuscation tool rather than a library to build on
