pwnlib.util.fiddling — Utilities bit fiddling

pwnlib.util.fiddling.b64d(s) str[source]

Base64 decodes a string

Example

>>> b64d('dGVzdA==')
b'test'
pwnlib.util.fiddling.b64e(s) str[source]

Base64 encodes a string

Example

>>> b64e(b"test")
'dGVzdA=='
pwnlib.util.fiddling.bits(s, endian='big', zero=0, one=1) list[source]

Converts the argument into a list of bits.

Parameters
  • s – A string or number to be converted into bits.

  • endian (str) – The binary endian, default ‘big’.

  • zero – The representing a 0-bit.

  • one – The representing a 1-bit.

Returns

A list consisting of the values specified in zero and one.

Examples

>>> bits(511, zero = "+", one = "-")
['+', '+', '+', '+', '+', '+', '+', '-', '-', '-', '-', '-', '-', '-', '-', '-']
>>> sum(bits(b"test"))
17
>>> bits(0)
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
pwnlib.util.fiddling.bits_str(s, endian='big', zero='0', one='1') str[source]

A wrapper around bits(), which converts the output into a string.

Examples

>>> bits_str(511)
'0000000111111111'
>>> bits_str(b"bits_str", endian = "little")
'0100011010010110001011101100111011111010110011100010111001001110'
pwnlib.util.fiddling.bitswap(s) str[source]

Reverses the bits in every byte of a given string.

Example

>>> bitswap(b"1234")
b'\x8cL\xcc,'
pwnlib.util.fiddling.bitswap_int(n) int[source]

Reverses the bits of a numbers and returns the result as a new number.

Parameters
  • n (int) – The number to swap.

  • width (int) – The width of the integer

Examples

>>> hex(bitswap_int(0x1234, 8))
'0x2c'
>>> hex(bitswap_int(0x1234, 16))
'0x2c48'
>>> hex(bitswap_int(0x1234, 24))
'0x2c4800'
>>> hex(bitswap_int(0x1234, 25))
'0x589000'
pwnlib.util.fiddling.bnot(value, width=None)[source]

Returns the binary inverse of ‘value’.

pwnlib.util.fiddling.enhex(x) str[source]

Hex-encodes a string.

Example

>>> enhex(b"test")
'74657374'
pwnlib.util.fiddling.hexdump(s, width=16, skip=True, hexii=False, begin=0, style=None, highlight=None, cyclic=False, groupsize=4, total=True)[source]
hexdump(s, width = 16, skip = True, hexii = False, begin = 0, style = None,

highlight = None, cyclic = False, groupsize=4, total = True) -> str

Return a hexdump-dump of a string.

Parameters
  • s (bytes) – The data to hexdump.

  • width (int) – The number of characters per line

  • groupsize (int) – The number of characters per group

  • skip (bool) – Set to True, if repeated lines should be replaced by a “*”

  • hexii (bool) – Set to True, if a hexii-dump should be returned instead of a hexdump.

  • begin (int) – Offset of the first byte to print in the left column

  • style (dict) – Color scheme to use.

  • highlight (iterable) – Byte values to highlight.

  • cyclic (bool) – Attempt to skip consecutive, unmodified cyclic lines

  • total (bool) – Set to True, if total bytes should be printed

Returns

A hexdump-dump in the form of a string.

Examples

>>> print(hexdump(b"abc"))

highlight = None, cyclic = False, groupsize=4, total = True) -> str generator

Return a hexdump-dump of a string as a generator of lines. Unless you have massive amounts of data you probably want to use hexdump().

Parameters
  • fd (file) – File object to dump. Use StringIO.StringIO() or hexdump() to dump a string.

  • width (int) – The number of characters per line

  • groupsize (int) – The number of characters per group

  • skip (bool) – Set to True, if repeated lines should be replaced by a “*”

  • hexii (bool) – Set to True, if a hexii-dump should be returned instead of a hexdump.

  • begin (int) – Offset of the first byte to print in the left column

  • style (dict) – Color scheme to use.

  • highlight (iterable) – Byte values to highlight.

  • cyclic (bool) – Attempt to skip consecutive, unmodified cyclic lines

  • total (bool) – Set to True, if total bytes should be printed

Returns

A generator producing the hexdump-dump one line at a time.

Example

>>> tmp = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile()
>>> _ = tmp.write(b'XXXXHELLO, WORLD')
>>> tmp.flush()
>>> _ = tmp.seek(4)

pwnlib.util.fiddling.naf(int) int generator[source]

Returns a generator for the non-adjacent form (NAF[1]) of a number, n. If naf(n) generates z_0, z_1, …, then n == z_0 + z_1 * 2 + z_2 * 2**2, ….

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-adjacent_form

Example

>>> n = 45
>>> m = 0
>>> x = 1
>>> for z in naf(n):
...     m += x * z
...     x *= 2
>>> n == m
True
pwnlib.util.fiddling.negate(value, width=None)[source]

Returns the two’s complement of ‘value’.

pwnlib.util.fiddling.randoms(count, alphabet=string.ascii_lowercase) str[source]

Returns a random string of a given length using only the specified alphabet.

Parameters
  • count (int) – The length of the desired string.

  • alphabet – The alphabet of allowed characters. Defaults to all lowercase characters.

Returns

A random string.

Example

>>> randoms(10) 
'evafjilupm'
pwnlib.util.fiddling.rol(n, k, word_size=None)[source]

Returns a rotation by k of n.

When n is a number, then means ((n << k) | (n >> (word_size - k))) truncated to word_size bits.

When n is a list, tuple or string, this is n[k % len(n):] + n[:k % len(n)].

Parameters
  • n – The value to rotate.

  • k (int) – The rotation amount. Can be a positive or negative number.

  • word_size (int) – If n is a number, then this is the assumed bitsize of n. Defaults to pwnlib.context.word_size if None .

Example

>>> rol('abcdefg', 2)
'cdefgab'
>>> rol('abcdefg', -2)
'fgabcde'
>>> hex(rol(0x86, 3, 8))
'0x34'
>>> hex(rol(0x86, -3, 8))
'0xd0'
pwnlib.util.fiddling.ror(n, k, word_size=None)[source]

A simple wrapper around rol(), which negates the values of k.

pwnlib.util.fiddling.xor_key(data, size=None, avoid='\x00\n')[source]

Finds a size-width value that can be XORed with a string to produce data, while neither the XOR value or XOR string contain any bytes in avoid.

Parameters
  • data (str) – The desired string.

  • avoid – The list of disallowed characters. Defaults to nulls and newlines.

  • size (int) – Size of the desired output value, default is word size.

Returns

A tuple containing two strings; the XOR key and the XOR string. If no such pair exists, None is returned.

Example

>>> xor_key(b"Hello, world")
(b'\x01\x01\x01\x01', b'Idmmn-!vnsme')
pwnlib.util.fiddling.xor_pair(data, avoid='\x00\n')[source]

Finds two strings that will xor into a given string, while only using a given alphabet.

Parameters
  • data (str) – The desired string.

  • avoid – The list of disallowed characters. Defaults to nulls and newlines.

Returns

Two strings which will xor to the given string. If no such two strings exist, then None is returned.
