Enigma Protector 5.x Unpacker

An unpacker aims to:

session = frida.attach("protected.exe")

script = session.create_script(""" var base = Module.findBaseAddress("protected.exe"); var textSection = base.add(0x1000); // approximate .text virtual address Enigma Protector 5.x Unpacker

// Hook VirtualProtect to catch memory decryption
Interceptor.attach(Module.findExportByName("kernel32.dll", "VirtualProtect"),

        var size = args[1];
        var newProtect = args[2];

        if (address.compare(textSection) == 0) 
            send("Original code section being decrypted!");
            // Set a breakpoint after decryption -> OEP find
