License : Public Domain
Description : XORSearch is a program to search for a given string in an XOR, ROL, ROT or SHIFT
: encoded binary file. An XOR encoded binary file is a file where some (or all)
: bytes have been XORed with a constant value (the key). A ROL (or ROR) encoded
: file has its bytes rotated by a certain number of bits (the key). A ROT encoded
: file has its alphabetic characters (A-Z and a-z) rotated by a certain number
: of positions. A SHIFT encoded file has its bytes shifted left by a certain
: number of bits (the key): all bits of the first byte shift left, the MSB
: of the second byte becomes the LSB of the first byte, all bits of the second
: byte shift left, … XOR and ROL/ROR encoding is used by malware programmers
: to obfuscate strings like URLs.
