Can you be sure it wasn’t a badly implemented form of obsfucatiom?
It certainly slowed down the reverse engineers. If they didn’t get to the object code what would the next step have been? Cryptographic analysis?
- stefan_ 8y ago5 of the bits were never set in their "obfuscated" variant? If you want to obfuscate CRC16 you would just choose a randomized starting value.
- joezydeco 8y agoI didn't say it was implemented well. Perhaps they should changing shift operators would quietly change the values without any disturbance to checksum integrity.
