JEB 4.1 (June 22, 2021)

JEB version 4 has been in the making for over a year and half! The Beta has been available for all users for the past 5 months. Thank you for the feedback that many of you provided, it helped iron things out. The list below is a non-exhaustive changelog of additions since JEB 3.28.2. Finally, on a related note: JEB 4.2 is around the corner already, with significant API additions that allow more control over the dex decompilation pipeline, in particular support for dexdec IR (Intermediate Representation) plugins. They unlock the possibility to write IR optimizers to thwart complex obfuscations. Stay tuned!

A list of 3.28->4.1 changes:

=> Core changes (high-level):
- gendec: JEB's generic decompiler for all architectures but dex (i.e. x86, arm, mips, ethereum, wasm, etc.) received many important upgrades, and was one of the major focus for v4
- dexdec: JEB's dex/dalvik decompiler received important additions, most notably an emulator coupled with a custom sandbox that allows the generic auto-decryption and deobfuscation of data and code
- native code analysis: upgrades, incl. performance, more analysis options, better switch recognition, tail-calls detection, etc.
- debuggers: updates and support for dynamic addition of native code units
- siglibs (library code recognition): updates for Android NDK, MSVC
- 'codeless' siglibs: see our blog; added codeless signatures for OpenSSL and libcurl
- typelibs (type libraries): updates
- x86: added MSVC exception parsing
- decompiler API: many additions for scripts/plugins to perform finer-grained decompilations
- dex: context-information database to specify context-sensitivity and side-effects for methods, to allow better optimizations

- dex: better obfuscated enum reconstruction
- dex API: additions
- comment manager: support inline, header (i.e. pre, above) and meta comments
- JDB2 databases: upgraded the serialization process, now reliable on very large projects (previously could trigger OOM errors if -Xss had a low value)

JEB v3.1.0 (January 15, 2019)

JEB3, the latest major update, is now available to all users. Below is a high-level summary of the changes.

- New desktop client, lighter and faster. The JEB3 client also ships with a dark/solarized theme, and supports custom keyboard shortcuts.
- Major upgrades to the native analysis pipeline. The decompilation pipeline is accessible and customizable at different stages, which we will detail in coming blogs. We published part 1 of a series on writing custom IR optimizers and AST optimizers.
- New decompilers for Ethereum smart contracts (evm) and WebAssembly modules (wasm). As of JEB 3.1, JEB ships with 8 decompilers: dex/dalvik, x86, x86-64, arm, arm64 (aarch64), mips, wasm, and evm. A large chunk of our effort this year will be focused on continuing our work on the native analysis and decompilation (eg, advanced optimization modules, release of the C++ reconstruction plugin, open-sourcing of advanced optimizers, etc.).
- Type libraries for Windows, Linux, and Android-Linux sub-systems for common architectures (x86, x86-64, arm, aarch64). Power users can also generate their own typelibs (eg, for custom SDKs), as we presented on our blog.
- Signature libraries for common library code on Windows (all versions of Visual Studio static libs) and Linux-Android (common NDK libs from NDK v11 onward).
- Windows malware analysis and Android SO native files is enjoyable and practical with JEB. Combined with powerful, custom IR optimizers, the analysis of complex code is also possible.
- Interactive global graphs. The desktop client provides this experimental feature, whose goal is to provide global, smart views of a program. More to come, including API to access the CFG graphs, callgraphs, and create custom graphs.
