ObfuscatorNDK

Android Obfuscator NDK 23 for Windows

Fully tested

1. Usage

Add CMAKE_C_FLAGS in CmakeLists.txt file

This will apply the obfuscation, module by module.

set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "-mllvm -fla -mllvm -bcf -mllvm -sub -mllvm -sobf")

Or, in case of using Android.mk :

LOCAL_CFLAGS := -Wall -D__MODULE__=\"$(LOCAL_MODULE)\" -fcommon -mllvm -fla -mllvm -bcf -mllvm -sub -mllvm -sobf

Currently available options

OptionDescription
-mllvm -subsubstitution
-mllvm -flaflattening
-mllvm -bcfbogus
-mllvm -sobfstring obf

2. How to build this NDK?

EnvDesc
Built onUbuntu 16.04 (VM)
Hostwindows

Avoid using ubuntu 20.04 -> might have sym-link problem

  1. Check for exact NDK version and branch

Check AndroidVersion.txt from{NDK_PATH}}\toolchains\llvm\prebuilt\windows-x86_64

12.0.9
based on r416183c2
  1. Download repo bin for clone from google source repository
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > /usr/bin/repo
chmod a+x /usr/bin/repo

Upgrade to python 3.9 if lower

##### Download required packages
sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall
sudo apt-get install libreadline-gplv2-dev libncursesw5-dev libssl-dev \
    libsqlite3-dev tk-dev libgdbm-dev libc6-dev libbz2-dev libffi-dev zlib1g-dev

##### Download 
cd /opt
sudo wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.9.1/Python-3.9.1.tgz
sudo tar xzf Python-3.9.1.tgz
cd Python-3.9.1
sudo ./configure --enable-optimizations
sudo make altinstall
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/local/bin/python3.9 1
  1. Download essential packages to build ndk toolchain
##### CMAKE and bison for toolchain build
apt install cmake bison
  1. Check for manifest file in original ndk
##### Search for "manifest" in original ndk directory
-> Result : manifest_8481493.xml
  1. Clone the repo
mkdir llvm-toolchain && cd llvm-toolchain
repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b llvm-toolchain

## >>> [COPY {NDK_PATH}/~~/manifest_8181493.xml to llvm-toolchain/.repo/manifests]

repo init -m manifest_8481493.xml
repo sync -c
  1. Build with --no-build linux option
python toolchain/llvm_android/build.py --no-build linux
  1. Cherry pick the source from ollvm 12.x
# Changing Targets :
cp -r {TARGET}/llvm/lib/Transforms/Obfuscation {SOURCE}/llvm/lib/Transforms/Obfuscation
cp -r {TARGET}/llvm/include/Transforms/Obfuscation {SOURCE}/llvm/include/Transforms/Obfuscation

# add Obfuscation to 
-> lib/Transforms/IPO/CMakeList.txt
-> lib/Transforms/CMakeList.txt

#Cherry pick the sources from lib/Transforms/IPO/PassManagerBuilder.cpp
  1. Build again
python toolchain/llvm_android/build.py --no-build linux

3. Handle the built output

out/install/windows-x86/clang-dev from result corresponds to toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/windows-x86-64

so, copy and paste the output(clang-dev) to original ndk directory

don't forget to manually substitute symbolic-linked binaries in bin/

(usually 1KB files in output are symbolic linked, except lldb.cmd)

4. Known issues when apply

NONE
