Provides readers with a solid foundation in Arm assembly internals and reverse-engineering fundamentals as the basis for analyzing and securing billions of Arm devices

Finding and mitigating security vulnerabilities in Arm devices is the next critical internet security frontier―Arm processors are already in use by more than 90% of all mobile devices, billions of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and a growing number of current laptops from companies including Microsoft, Lenovo, and Apple. Written by a leading expert on Arm security, Blue Fox: Arm Assembly Internals and Reverse Engineering introduces readers to modern Armv8-A instruction sets and the process of reverse-engineering Arm binaries for security research and defensive purposes.

Divided into two sections, the book first provides an overview of the ELF file format and OS internals, followed by Arm architecture fundamentals, and a deep-dive into the A32 and A64 instruction sets. Section Two delves into the process of reverse-engineering itself: setting up an Arm environment, an introduction to static and dynamic analysis tools, and the process of extracting and emulating firmware for analysis. The last chapter provides the reader a glimpse into macOS malware analysis of binaries compiled for the Arm-based M1 SoC. Throughout the book, the reader is given an extensive understanding of Arm instructions and control-flow patterns essential for reverse engineering software compiled for the Arm architecture. Providing an in-depth introduction into reverse-engineering for engineers and security researchers alike, this book:

Offers an introduction to the Arm architecture, covering both AArch32 and AArch64 instruction set states, as well as ELF file format internals
Presents in-depth information on Arm assembly internals for reverse engineers analyzing malware and auditing software for security vulnerabilities, as well as for developers seeking detailed knowledge of the Arm assembly language
Covers the A32/T32 and A64 instruction sets supported by the Armv8-A architecture with a detailed overview of the most common instructions and control flow patterns
Introduces known reverse engineering tools used for static and dynamic binary analysis
Describes the process of disassembling and debugging Arm binaries on Linux, and using common disassembly and debugging tools

Blue Fox: Arm Assembly Internals and Reverse Engineering is a vital resource for security researchers and reverse engineers who analyze software applications for Arm-based devices at the assembly level.

From the Back Cover

Explore the core of Arm and unlock the secrets behind 90% of mobile and IoT devices through reverse engineering

The popularity of Arm architecture in mobile and IoT devices, laptops, and servers makes it a perfect subject for anyone interested in reverse engineering. The details and intricacies of Arm assembly language offer an invaluable opportunity to stay up to date with a quickly evolving technological landscape.

Blue Fox: Arm Assembly Internals and Reverse Engineering is a comprehensive guide perfect for both beginners and seasoned professionals. The book delivers an intuitive presentation of a processor language that is surging in popularity and demand. It skillfully presents material that readers need to dramatically improve their vulnerability discovery and analysis, exploit development, and malware analysis skills.

The book equips readers with the foundational knowledge required for effective reverse engineering. The initial chapters delve into topics such as the ELF file format, operating system fundamentals, and the Arm architecture, while subsequent chapters provide an overview of the three instruction sets: A64, A32, and T32. They offer coverage of a variety of instruction types including data processing and memory access instructions, conditional execution, and control flow patterns.

The second part of the book immerses readers in the world of reverse engineering, covering critical subjects, including different types of Arm environments, practical router firmware emulation, the process of static analysis, dynamic analysis and debugging of binaries during run-time, and an overview of frequently used reverse engineering tools and techniques.

The author also provides an in-depth chapter on reversing arm64 macOS malware, which includes the real-world anti-analysis techniques used by malware in the wild, making this book an essential resource for anyone interested in malware analysis.

Best intro to asm EVER! And more!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 21, 2023

Verified Purchase

I have bought a number of book to try to get into reverse engineering. Sadly most of them lost me as soon as they get into assembly. They all expected you to be already quite familiar with assembly before you started, and there is often a gap there that makes it really confusing…

No so much with this book.

The intro is gentle and makes no assumptions about your level of familiarity with assembly. After a couple dozen pages, you really feel like the curtain is slowly being pulled away, and the mechanisms are revealed. The writing is excellent! When something is mentioned that may be a little advanced, there are mentions that tells you that further details are incoming later in the book.

I’m only a few chapters in, but this is the best book about reverse engineering I have read! I’m excited by the prospect of the later chapters ‘to get my hands dirty’… and even more excited about the next book Maria has mentioned (Red Fox). This will end up prominently on my shelf, and I expect it will end up being a reference/classic book for years to come!

This book is worth every penny!

Amazing book on assembly and reverse engineering -- no matter what your skill level is

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 20, 2023

Verified Purchase

This is a really incredible book. I've done assembly programming for many years and with various CPU families, and one thing that's been pretty consistent is that it's always hard to find a really good, readable starting point. That all changes, at least for Arm assembly. This book is incredibly readable. The introduction to asm and core concepts is the best I've ever seen. It dives into assembly pretty quickly, but in a way that won't overwhelm beginners—or bore experts. That's a really impressive feat of writing.

Where this book really shines is its coverage of reverse engineering, a topic that's incredibly important but also mysterious and really hard to get started with. Until now. Blue Fox covers both practical, on-the-ground day-to-day work, combined with a really thorough coverage of theory. Honestly, I've never seen anything like this—it's really amazing to see this all in one place. This is a tough topic to teach, and Blue Fox teaches it really, really well.

If you really want to give your development skills a real boost and thoroughly understand assembly and reverse engineering, do yourself a favor and get this book.

The wait is finally over!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 15, 2023

Where do I begin?

I purchased this book yesterday, and I wasn't planning on starting it anytime soon.
Curiosity got the best of me, however, and I'm currently on page 17 (slow reader).

Sometimes, you don't have to wait to finish reading an entire book before you can submit a review. This book is definitely one of those instances.

I found myself asking questions while reading, only to have them answered on the same page, or the very next one. If an author is able to anticipate the reader's thinking process beforehand, you know the book does a wonderful job. Maria is definitely no stranger to that!

I started reading casually, but then I found myself unable to stop reading whenever I got the chance. The language is very clear and understandable. The narrative captures your attention and interest, and definitely has you coming back for more. The style of writing, diagrams, and code sections are wonderfully clear. The formatting on Kindle is also amazing.

This will be my first official dive into the world of ARM, and I'm super excited to discover what's ahead in the book! I've merely scratched the surface, and I'm already mind-blown by what I've read so far.

I cannot recommend this book enough, and we really do need more books like this where technicality doesn't always have to be mundane.

I cannot wait for Red Fox—I know I'll be spamming the pre-order button the moment it's out :D

Thank you, Maria, for a wonderful resource! As always: brilliant work all around!
