in the name of zero

improvements

Filed under: hermetic studies

so i’ve improved this program here “elf header corruption”, to not only zero out some header values but also nullify the section header tables - making reconstruction a little more harder. it’s version 0.2 and i’m contented with what it does so far.

note: as this tool removes section tables (and section information for that matter) BFD based tools like “strip” must be run first.

future plan (for now)…
1) completely remove nullified tables (blocks) to shrink binary size. like what “strip” does. no idea how to do as of now.
2) complete remove the actual blocks that section table entries describe. e.g. .comment, .note no idea either.

till next.

update
yeah, well, during the weekend, i was able to do actual distorting of section entries like .comment and .shstrtab.
