After hours of Flutter AOT reversing, Dart object pool decoding & AES key derivation tracing, I became the first globally to crack DroidPass
Full write-up reversethat.app/reverse-engi…
#Android #AndroidSecurity #ReverseEngineering #CTF #Flutter #Dart #8ksec #DroidPass
Nobody’s cracked this Android lab yet 🤯
Meet DroidPass: Ultimate Password Vault, a purposely flawed password manager hiding its base encryption key inside the APK. Your mission: statically reverse-engineer the app and extract the exact base key used to encrypt the password DB.
Think you can be the first to break it? Drop a comment if you’re in. Winner gets ultimate bragging rights🔥

Just published my #flareon12 challenge 8 write-up
Spent hours playing with Intel Pin (wrong path 😅), then switched to a bottom-up event-based approach using WinDbg TTD, x64dbg, ret-sync & IDA — felt like cracking old game trial licenses again 😄

Even a decade later, this is still one of the best references on malware analysis. I remember spending an entire summer studying this book religiously. I owe the start of my career to it. Waiting for the update @nostarch 🤓
