Saving Space or 522 bytes, about half of the original message length. Sending the tree requires another 197 bits, or 25 bytes. (We do not discuss the method here.) Of course, the longer the message, the less it matters, since the message will be so big by comparison. These codes are called Huffman codes, named after David A. Huffman, who invented them whilst a PhD student at MIT in the 1950s. A common use for this sort of encoding is in the sending of faxes. A fax consists of a high-resolution black and white image. In this case, we are not compressing characters, but the black and white image of those characters itself. Take the following fragment: This image is 37 pixels wide and 15 tall. Here it is with a grid superimposed to make it easier to count pixels: We cannot compress the whole thing with Huffman encoding, since we do not know the frequencies at the outset – a fax is sent incrementally. One machine scans the document whilst the machine at the other end of the phone line prints the result as it pulls paper from its roll. It had to be this way because, when fax machines were in their infancy, computer memory was very expensive, so receiving and storing the whole image in one go and only then printing it out was not practical. The solution the fax system uses is as follows. Instead of sending individual pixels, we send, a line at a time, a list of runs. Each run is a length of white pixels or a length of black pixels. For example, a line of width 39 might contain 12 pixels of white, then 4 of black, then 2 of white, then 18 of black, and then 3 of white. We look up the code for each run and send the codes in order.

Then, decompress this new file by using HiLarry 2.55 or WinZip. If you are not using WinZip, give the new file an .h file extension so that it will be automatically associated with WinZip. Recognizing where you should cut to obtain the hex file is easy. Just look for the `--1h5--` string. Two bytes before the `--1h5--` string is the beginning of the file, and the end of the file is always 0h, right before the next compressed file; the padding bytes, are some kind of checksum. As an example, look at the beginning and the end of the compressed `awardext.rom` in the current Foxconn BIOS as seen within a hex editor. The bytes highlighted in yellow are the beginning of the compressed file, and the bytes highlighted in green are the end of compressed `awardext.rom`. ## Hex dump 5.3 Compressed Award BIOS Component Header Sample | Address | Hex | ASCII | |------------|----------------------------------------------|--------------------------------| | 0001D400 | E0C9 C1F9 041B C000 25 12ED 66C8 3529 ... | . . . . . . . . . . . . . | | 0001D480 | 6C90 0000 00B0 7D40 2001 0C61 ... | . . . . . . . . . . . . . . | | 0001D600 | 7761 7264 6574 742E 7262 6C20 0000 ... | . . . . . . . . . . . . . . | | 0001D610 | 2E2E 2E2E 2E2E 2E2E 2E2E 2E2E 2E2E ... | . . . . . . . . . . . . . . | | 0001E270 | AD7B A8B5 0DFA 84B4 4692 0D24 2320 ... | . . . . . . . . . . . . . . | | 0001E300 | 563D 520B 0400 FC07 0000 0340 1H5... | . . . . . . . . . . . . . . | | 0001E310 | 2001 0341 4354 4242 494E F30C ... | . . . . . . . . . . . . . . | 1.

Listing 12.14 shows the code for the 11th POST jump table entry, which calls the BIOS decompression block routines to decompress an extension component named nnoprom.bin. With this sample, you can infer how you should implement your custom routine to decompress the "extension" to the interrupt 13h handler if you have to compress it and store it as a standalone extension BIOS module. Watch your address space consumption in your custom code. Make sure you don't eat up the space that's still being used by other BIOS code upon the execution of your module. This can become complex—to the point that it cannot be implemented reliably. This issue can be handled by avoiding the interrupt 13h handler and patching the interrupt 19h handler instead. #################### File:

note is that the boot block explanation here only covers the normal boot block code execution path, which means it didn't explain the boot block POST that takes place if the system BIOS is corrupted. As promised, I now delve into the details of the decomposition routine for the system BIOS, mentioned in point 5. Start by learning the prerequisites. The compressed component in an Award BIOS uses a modified version of the LZH level-h header format. The address ranges where these BIOS components will be located after decompression are contained within this format. The format is provided in Table 5.2. Remember that it applies to all compressed components. | Starting Offset from First Byte (from Preheader) | Starting Offset in LZH Basic Header | Size in Bytes | Contents | |---------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------|---------------|---------| | 0Dh | N/A | 1 | The header length of the component. It depends on the file/component name. The formula is header_length = filename_length + 25. | | 01h | N/A | 1 | The header 8-bit checksum, not including the first 2 bytes (header length and header checksum byte). | | 02h | 00h | 5 | LZH method ID (ASCII string signature). In Award BIOS, it's “.LZH,” which means: 8-KB sliding dictionary (max 256 bytes) + static Huffman + improved encoding of position and trees. | | 07h | 05h | 4 | Compressed file or component size in little endian dword value, i.e., MSB at 0Ah, and so forth. | | 0Bh | 09h | 4 | Uncompressed file or component size in little endian dword value, i.e., MSB at 0Bh, and so forth. | | 0Fh | 0Dh | 2 | Destination offset address in little endian word value, i.e., MSB at 0Dh, and so forth. The component will be decompressed into this offset address (real-mode addressing is in effect here). | | 11h | 0Fh | 2 | Destination segment address in little endian word value, i.e., MSB at 12h, and so forth. The | * MSB stands for most significant bit. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 136

I use the word **compressed** to refer to the compression state of this component because the component is not exactly compressed from Award BIOS LZH compression perspective. The header of this component shows an **-Lh0-** signature, which in LZH compression terms means a plain copy of the original binary file without any compression. However, the LZH header is appended at the start of the binary file.

It only shows the most important route that will eventually execute etBIOS module in the Acorp 4865GQET BIOS. Listing 14.1 also shows a call to an undefined function that is apparently a decompression function. (I haven't completed for you the reverse engineering in that function.) From this fact, you can conclude that even if the etBIOS module is not stored as an LZH-compressed component in the overall BIOS binary, it's still using a compression scheme that it employs itself. Another fact that may help you complete the reverse engineering of the etBIOS module is the existence of the GCC string shown in hex dump 14.3. Hex dump 14.3 GCC String in etBIOS Binary from the Acorp 4865GQET Motherboard Address Hex values ASCII ........ 000011D0 0047 4343 3A20 2847 4E55 2920 6567 6373 .GCC: (GNU) egcs 000011E0 2D32 2E39 312E 3636 2031 3939 3930 3331 -2.91.66 1999031 000011F0 342F 4C69 6E75 7820 2865 6763 732D 312E 4/Linux (egcs-1. 00001200 312E 3220 7265 6C65 6173 6529 0008 0000 1.2 release).... 00001210 0000 0000 0001 0000 0030 312E 3031 0000 .........01.01.. ........ The address in hex dump 14.3 is relative to the beginning of the etBIOS binary. You can "cut and paste" the etBIOS binary by using the information from its LZH header. Recall from table 5.2 in subsection 5.1.2.7 that the LZH header contains information about the "compressed" file size, along with the length of the "compressed" file header. You can use this information to determine the start and end of the etBIOS module and then copy and paste it to a new binary file by using a hex editor. This step simplifies the etBIOS analysis process. In sections 3.2 and 7.3, you learn about BIOS-related software development. Some techniques that you learn in those sections are applicable to embedded x86 software development and the reverse engineering of embedded x86 systems. Of particular importance is the linker script technique described in section 3.2. By using a linker script, you can control the output of GCC. Inferring from the linker script technique that you learned in section 3.2, you can conclude that the binary file that forms the etBIOS module possibly is a result of using a linker script, or at least using GCC tricks. This hint can help you complete etBIOS reverse engineering. Many embedded x86 system developers are using GCC as their compiler of choice because of its versatility. Thus, it's not surprising that Elegent Technologies also uses it in the development of its etBIOS and related products. Now, you likely have grasped the basics of PC-based STB. In the next subsection, I delve into network appliances based on embedded x86 technologies. 14.2.2.

The most interesting one is the -lh5- in the beginning of the binary file. An experienced programmer will be suspicious of this string, because it resembles a marker for a header of a compressed file. Further research will reveal that this is a string to mark the header of a file compressed with LHA. You can try a similar approach to another kind of file. For example, every file compressed with WinZip will start with ASCII code PK, and every file compressed with WinRAR will start with ASCII code Rar!, as seen in a hex editor. This shows how powerful a preliminary assessment is. 2.2. Introducing IDA Pro Reverse code engineering is carried out to comprehend the algorithm used in software by analyzing the executable file of the corresponding software. In most cases, the software only comes with the executable—without its source code. The same is true for the BIOS. Only the executable binary file is accessible. Reverse code engineering is carried out with the help of some tools: a debugger; a disassembler; a hexadecimal file editor, a.k.a. a hex editor, in-circuit emulator, etc. In this book, I only deal with a disassembler and a hex editor. The current chapter only deals with a disassembler, i.e., IDA Pro disassembler. IDA Pro is a powerful disassembler. It comes with support for plugin and scripting facilities and support for more than 50 processor architectures. However, every powerful tool has its downside of being hard to use, and IDA Pro is not an exception. This chapter is designed to address the issue. There are several editions of IDA Pro: freeware, standard, and advanced. The latest freeware edition as of the writing of this book is IDA Pro version 4.3. It's available for download at http://www.dirfile.com/ida_pro_freeware_version.htm. It's the most limited of the IDA Pro versions. It supports only the x86 processor and doesn’t come with a plugin 2 #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 650 Context: ayraisesecurityandprivacyconcerns.Theseuniquekindsofdataprovidefertilelandfordatamining.Dataminingincomputersciencecanbeusedtohelpmonitorsystemstatus,improvesystemperformance,isolatesoftwarebugs,detectsoftwareplagiarism,analyzecomputersystemfaults,uncovernetworkintrusions,andrecognizesystemmalfunc-tions.Dataminingforsoftwareandsystemengineeringcanoperateonstaticordynamic(i.e.,stream-based)data,dependingonwhetherthesystemdumpstracesbeforehandforpostanalysisorifitmustreactinrealtimetohandleonlinedata.Variousmethodshavebeendevelopedinthisdomain,whichintegrateandextendmethodsfrommachinelearning,datamining,software/systemengineering,patternrecognition,andstatistics.Dataminingincomputerscienceisanactiveandrichdomainfordataminersbecauseofitsuniquechallenges.Itrequiresthefurtherdevelopmentofsophisticated,scalable,andreal-timedataminingandsoftware/systemengineeringmethods. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29%281%29.pdf Page: 650 Context: ayraisesecurityandprivacyconcerns.Theseuniquekindsofdataprovidefertilelandfordatamining.Dataminingincomputersciencecanbeusedtohelpmonitorsystemstatus,improvesystemperformance,isolatesoftwarebugs,detectsoftwareplagiarism,analyzecomputersystemfaults,uncovernetworkintrusions,andrecognizesystemmalfunc-tions.Dataminingforsoftwareandsystemengineeringcanoperateonstaticordynamic(i.e.,stream-based)data,dependingonwhetherthesystemdumpstracesbeforehandforpostanalysisorifitmustreactinrealtimetohandleonlinedata.Variousmethodshavebeendevelopedinthisdomain,whichintegrateandextendmethodsfrommachinelearning,datamining,software/systemengineering,patternrecognition,andstatistics.Dataminingincomputerscienceisanactiveandrichdomainfordataminersbecauseofitsuniquechallenges.Itrequiresthefurtherdevelopmentofsophisticated,scalable,andreal-timedataminingandsoftware/systemengineeringmethods. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29%281%29.pdf Page: 650 Context: ayraisesecurityandprivacyconcerns.Theseuniquekindsofdataprovidefertilelandfordatamining.Dataminingincomputersciencecanbeusedtohelpmonitorsystemstatus,improvesystemperformance,isolatesoftwarebugs,detectsoftwareplagiarism,analyzecomputersystemfaults,uncovernetworkintrusions,andrecognizesystemmalfunc-tions.Dataminingforsoftwareandsystemengineeringcanoperateonstaticordynamic(i.e.,stream-based)data,dependingonwhetherthesystemdumpstracesbeforehandforpostanalysisorifitmustreactinrealtimetohandleonlinedata.Variousmethodshavebeendevelopedinthisdomain,whichintegrateandextendmethodsfrommachinelearning,datamining,software/systemengineering,patternrecognition,andstatistics.Dataminingincomputerscienceisanactiveandrichdomainfordataminersbecauseofitsuniquechallenges.Itrequiresthefurtherdevelopmentofsophisticated,scalable,andreal-timedataminingandsoftware/systemengineeringmethods. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29%281%29.pdf Page: 361 Context: simplelossycom-pressionoffrequentpatterns.Top-kpatterns,suchasbyWang,Han,Lu,andTsvetkov[WHLT05],anderror-tolerantpatterns,suchasbyYang,Fayyad,andBradley[YFB01],arealternativeformsofinterestingpatterns.Afrati,Gionis,andMannila[AGM04]pro-posedtousek-itemsetstocoveracollectionoffrequentitemsets.Forfrequentitemsetcompression,Yan,Cheng,Han,andXin[YCHX05]proposedaprofile-basedapproach,andXin,Han,Yan,andCheng[XHYC05]proposedaclustering-basedapproach.Bytakingintoconsiderationbothpatternsignificanceandpatternredundancy,Xin,Cheng,Yan,andHan[XCYH06]proposedamethodforextractingredundancy-awaretop-kpatterns.Automatedsemanticannotationoffrequentpatternsisusefulforexplainingthemeaningofpatterns.Mei,Xin,Cheng,etal.[MXC+07]studiedmethodsforsemanticannotationoffrequentpatterns.Animportantextensiontofrequentitemsetminingisminingsequenceandstruc-turaldata.Thisincludesminingsequentialpatterns(AgrawalandSrikant[AS95];Pei,Han,Mortazavi-Asl,etal.[PHM-A+01,PHM-A+04];andZaki[Zak01]);min-ingfrequentespisodes(Mannila,Toivonen,andVerkamo[MTV97]);miningstructural #################### File: BIOS%20Disassembly%20Ninjutsu%20Uncovered%201st%20Edition%20-%20Darmawan%20Salihun%20%28PDF%29%20BIOS_Disassembly_Ninjutsu_Uncovered.pdf Page: 152 Context: E000:2276 retn E000:2276 Reloc_Dcomprssion_Block endp In the code in listing 5.17, the decompression block is found by searching for the = Award Decomptring.

The offset in the LZH basic header is used within the "scratch-pad RAM" (which will be explained later). - Each component is terminated with an eof byte, i.e., a 0Dh byte. - In Award BIOS, there is the `Read_Header` procedure, which contains the routine to read and verify the content of this header. One key procedure call there is a call into `Calc_LZH_hdr_CRC16`, which reads the BIOS component header into a "scratch-pad" RAM area beginning at 3000:0000h (dec: 122880). This scratch-pad area is filled with the LZH basic header values, which don't include the first 2 bytes.

There’s only one checksum checked before decompression of system BIOS in Award BIOS version 6.00PG (i.e., the 8-bit checksum of the overall system BIOS). [^1]: The first 2 bytes of the compressed components are the preheader, i.e., header size and header 8-bit checksum. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29%281%29.pdf Page: 345 Context: loneisnotenoughtoobtainagoodrepresentativecompressionofadataset,asweseeinExample7.12.Example7.12Shortcomingsofcloseditemsetsandmaximalitemsetsforcompression.Table7.3showsasubsetoffrequentitemsetsonalargedataset,wherea,b,c,d,e,frepresentindi-vidualitems.Therearenocloseditemsetshere;therefore,wecannotuseclosedfrequentitemsetstocompressthedata.TheonlymaximalfrequentitemsetisP3.However,weobservethatitemsetsP2,P3,andP4aresignificantlydifferentwithrespecttotheirsup-portcounts.IfweweretouseP3torepresentacompressedversionofthedata,wewouldlosethissupportcountinformationentirely.Fromvisualinspection,considerthetwopairs(P1,P2)and(P4,P5).Thepatternswithineachpairareverysimilarwithrespecttotheirsupportandexpression.Therefore,intuitively,P2,P3,andP4,collectively,shouldserveasabettercompressedversionofthedata. #################### File: BIOS%20Disassembly%20Ninjutsu%20Uncovered%201st%20Edition%20-%20Darmawan%20Salihun%20%28PDF%29%20BIOS_Disassembly_Ninjutsu_Uncovered.pdf Page: 107 Context: # Chapter 5 Implementation of Motherboard BIOS ## PREVIEW This chapter explains how the BIOS vendor implements BIOS. It researches the compression algorithm used by BIOS vendors and the formats of the compressed components inside the BIOS binary. It also dissects several BIOS binary files from different vendors so that you can discover their internal structure. ## 5.1 Award BIOS This section dissects an Award BIOS binary. Use the BIOS for the Foxconn 955XAA-REKRS2 motherboard as a sample implementation. Its Award BIOS version 6.00PG dated November 11, 2005. The size of the BIOS is 4 Mb/512 KB. ### 5.1.1 Award BIOS File Structure An Award BIOS file consists of several components. Some of them are LZ1 level-1 compressed. You can recognize them by looking at the `-lh5-` signature in the beginning of that component by using a hex editor. An example is presented in hex dump 5.1. ``` Hex dump 5.1 Compressed Award BIOS Component Sample Address Hex ASCIIT 00000000 252E 426C 6835 2B5 3A00 0000 5700 0000 .-lh5-...-. 00000010 0000 4120 0106 6172 6465 7874 2872 2A.--.awardex.( 00000020 6F6D 5D74 2000 0022 F8BE FBFE D923 499B om.......".. ``` Beside the compressed components, there are pure 16-bit x86 binary components. Award BIOS execution begins in one of these pure binary components. The general structure of a typical Award BIOS binary is as follows: - **Boot block:** The boot block is a pure binary component; thus, it's not compressed. The processor starts execution in this part of the BIOS. - **Decompression block:** This is a pure binary component. Its role is to carry out the decompression process for the compressed BIOS components. 1. Pure binary refers to the component that is not compressed. #################### File:
