MachO

Parser

class Parser : public LIEF::Parser

The main interface to parse a Mach-O binary.

This class is used to parse both Fat & non-Fat binary. Non-fat binaries are considerated as a fat with only one architecture. This is why MachO::Parser::parse outputs a FatBinary object.

Public Functions

Parser &operator=(const Parser &copy) = delete
Parser(const Parser &copy) = delete
virtual ~Parser() override

Public Static Functions

static std::unique_ptr<FatBinary> parse(const std::string &filename, const ParserConfig &conf = ParserConfig::deep())

Parse a Mach-O file from the path provided by the filename parameter.

The conf parameter can be used to tweak the configuration of the parser

Parameters:
static std::unique_ptr<FatBinary> parse(const std::vector<uint8_t> &data, const ParserConfig &conf = ParserConfig::deep())

Parse a Mach-O file from the raw content provided by the data parameter.

The conf parameter can be used to tweak the configuration of the parser

Parameters:
static std::unique_ptr<FatBinary> parse(std::unique_ptr<BinaryStream> stream, const ParserConfig &conf = ParserConfig::deep())

Parser a Mach-O binary from the provided BinaryStream.

static std::unique_ptr<FatBinary> parse_from_memory(uintptr_t address, const ParserConfig &conf = ParserConfig::deep())

Parse the Mach-O binary from the address given in the first parameter.

static std::unique_ptr<FatBinary> parse_from_memory(uintptr_t address, size_t size, const ParserConfig &conf = ParserConfig::deep())

Parse the Mach-O binary from the address given in the first parameter and the size given in the second parameter.

class BinaryParser : public LIEF::Parser

Class used to parse a single binary (i.e. non-FAT)

Rebase information

Dyld rebases an image whenever dyld loads it at an address different from its preferred address. The rebase information is a stream of byte sized opcodes for which symbolic names start with REBASE_OPCODE_. Conceptually the rebase information is a table of tuples: <seg-index, seg-offset, type> The opcodes are a compressed way to encode the table by only encoding when a column changes. In addition simple patterns like “every n’th offset for m times” can be encoded in a few bytes.

Bind information

Dyld binds an image during the loading process, if the image requires any pointers to be initialized to symbols in other images. The rebase information is a stream of byte sized opcodes for which symbolic names start with BIND_OPCODE_. Conceptually the bind information is a table of tuples: <seg-index, seg-offset, type, symbol-library-ordinal, symbol-name, addend> The opcodes are a compressed way to encode the table by only encoding when a column changes. In addition simple patterns like for runs of pointers initialzed to the same value can be encoded in a few bytes.

std::string show_bind_opcodes() const

inline const info_t &weak_bind() const

Weak Bind information

Some C++ programs require dyld to unique symbols so that all images in the process use the same copy of some code/data. This step is done after binding. The content of the weak_bind info is an opcode stream like the bind_info. But it is sorted alphabetically by symbol name. This enables dyld to walk all images with weak binding information in order and look for collisions. If there are no collisions, dyld does no updating. That means that some fixups are also encoded in the bind_info. For instance, all calls to “operator new” are first bound to libstdc++.dylib using the information in bind_info. Then if some image overrides operator new that is detected when the weak_bind information is processed and the call to operator new is then rebound.

inline const info_t &lazy_bind() const

Lazy Bind information

Some uses of external symbols do not need to be bound immediately. Instead they can be lazily bound on first use. The lazy_bind are contains a stream of BIND opcodes to bind all lazy symbols. Normal use is that dyld ignores the lazy_bind section when loading an image. Instead the static linker arranged for the lazy pointer to initially point to a helper function which pushes the offset into the lazy_bind area for the symbol needing to be bound, then jumps to dyld which simply adds the offset to lazy_bind_off to get the information on what to bind.

inline it_binding_info bindings()

Iterator over BindingInfo entries.

inline it_const_binding_info bindings() const
inline const info_t &export_info() const

Export information

The symbols exported by a dylib are encoded in a trie. This is a compact representation that factors out common prefixes. It also reduces LINKEDIT pages in RAM because it encodes all information (name, address, flags) in one small, contiguous range. The export area is a stream of nodes. The first node sequentially is the start node for the trie.

Nodes for a symbol start with a byte that is the length of the exported symbol information for the string so far. If there is no exported symbol, the byte is zero. If there is exported info, it follows the length byte. The exported info normally consists of a flags and offset both encoded in uleb128. The offset is location of the content named by the symbol. It is the offset from the mach_header for the image.

After the initial byte and optional exported symbol information is a byte of how many edges (0-255) that this node has leaving it, followed by each edge. Each edge is a zero terminated cstring of the addition chars in the symbol, followed by a uleb128 offset for the node that edge points to.

Enums

enum class LIEF::MachO::MACHO_TYPES : uint32_t

Values:

enumerator UNKNOWN = 0
enumerator MH_MAGIC = 0xFEEDFACEu

32-bit big-endian magic

enumerator MH_CIGAM = 0xCEFAEDFEu

32-bit little-endian magic

enumerator MH_MAGIC_64 = 0xFEEDFACFu

64-bit big-endian magic

enumerator MH_CIGAM_64 = 0xCFFAEDFEu

64-bit little-endian magic

enumerator FAT_MAGIC = 0xCAFEBABEu

big-endian fat magic

enumerator FAT_CIGAM = 0xBEBAFECAu

enumerator NEURAL_MODEL = 0xbeeffaceu
enum class LIEF::MachO::X86_RELOCATION

Values:

enumerator GENERIC_RELOC_VANILLA = 0

A generic relocation entry for both addresses contained in data and addresses contained in CPU instructions.

enumerator GENERIC_RELOC_PAIR = 1

The second relocation entry of a pair.

enumerator GENERIC_RELOC_SECTDIFF = 2

A relocation entry for an item that contains the difference of two section addresses. This is generally used for position-independent code generation.

enumerator GENERIC_RELOC_PB_LA_PTR = 3

contains the address from which to subtract; it must be followed by a X86_RELOCATION::GENERIC_RELOC_PAIR containing the address to subtract.

enumerator GENERIC_RELOC_LOCAL_SECTDIFF = 4

Similar to X86_RELOCATION::GENERIC_RELOC_SECTDIFF except that this entry refers specifically to the address in this item. If the address is that of a globally visible coalesced symbol, this relocation entry does not change if the symbol is overridden. This is used to associate stack unwinding information with the object code this relocation entry describes.

enumerator GENERIC_RELOC_TLV = 5

A relocation entry for a prebound lazy pointer. This is always a scattered relocation entry. The MachO::Relocation::value field contains the non-prebound value of the lazy pointer.

enum class LIEF::MachO::X86_64_RELOCATION

Values:

enumerator X86_64_RELOC_UNSIGNED = 0

enumerator X86_64_RELOC_GOT_LOAD = 3

Signed 32-bit displacement.

enumerator X86_64_RELOC_GOT = 4

Absolute address.

enumerator X86_64_RELOC_SUBTRACTOR = 5

Must be followed by a X86_64_RELOCATION::X86_64_RELOC_UNSIGNED relocation.
