如何从二进制文件中提取硬编码字符串

Question

是否有任何语言的API可以在Mac (Perl/Python/Cocoa/etc)或命令行工具上运行，您可以使用它来加载二进制文件(app/bundle/framework/etc)并提取代码中使用的硬编码字符串?

背后的原因是我们想检查编译后的二进制文件中是否有硬编码的路径

Answer 1

是的，您可以使用strings命令行工具:

$ man strings
NAME
       strings - find the printable strings in a object, or other binary, file
SYNOPSIS
       strings [ - ] [ -a ] [ -o ] [ -t format ] [ -number ] [ -n number ] [--] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
       Strings looks for ASCII strings in a binary file or standard input.  Strings is useful for identifying random object files and many other things.  A string
       is any sequence of 4 (the default) or more printing characters ending with a newline or a null.  Unless the - flag is given, strings looks in all  sections
       of the object files except the (__TEXT,__text) section.  If no files are specified standard input is read.
       The file arguments may be of the form libx.a(foo.o), to request information about only that object file and not the entire library.   (Typically this argu-
       ment must be quoted, ``libx.a(foo.o)'', to get it past the shell.)
       The options to strings(1) are:
       -a     This option causes strings to look for strings in all sections of the object file (including the (__TEXT,__text) section.
       -      This option causes strings to look for strings in all bytes of the files (the default for non-object files).
       --     This option causes strings to treat all the following arguments as files.
       -o     Preceded each string by its offset in the file (in decimal).
       -t format
              Write each string preceded by its byte offset from the start of the file.  The format shall be dependent on the single character used as the  format
              option-argument:
       d      The offset shall be written in decimal.
       o      The offset shall be written in octal.
       x      The offset shall be written in hexadecimal.
       -number
              The decimal number is used as the minimum string length rather than the default of 4.
       -n number
              Specify the minimum string length, where the number argument is a positive decimal integer. The default shall be 4.
       -arch arch_type
              Specifies  the  architecture, arch_type, of the file for strings(1) to operate on when the file is a universal file.  (See arch(3) for the currently
              know arch_types.)  The arch_type can be "all" to operate on all architectures in the file, which is the default.

BUGS
       The algorithm for identifying strings is extremely primitive.
