Analyzing an automotive ECU firmware is sometimes quite challenging, especially when you cannot emulate some of its most interesting functions to find vulnerabilities, like ECUs based on Renesas RH850 system-on-chips. This article details how we managed to add support for this specific architecture into Unicorn Engine, the various challenges we faced and how we successfully used this work to emulate and analyze a specific function during an assignment.

Quarkslab is open-sourcing Quokka, a binary exporter to manipulate a program's disassembly without a disassembler. This blog post introduces the project, details some parts of its inner workings, and showcases some potential usages. Quokka enables users to write complex analyses on a disassembled binary without dealing with the disassembler API.
