Function Naming in Stripped Binaries Using Neural Networks
share
In this paper we investigate the problem of automatically naming pieces of assembly code. Where by naming we mean assigning to portion of code the string of words that would be likely assigned by an human reverse engineer. We precisely define the framework in which our investigation takes place. That is we define problem, we provide reasonable justifications for the choice that we made during our designing of the training and test steps and we performed a statistical analysis of function names in a large real-world corpora of over 4 millions of functions. In such framework we test several baselines coming from the field of NLP.
