how to build unity_decoder.exe

$ git clone https://github.com/kenjiaiko/unity_metadata_loader/
$ cd unity_metadata_loader/unity_decoder
$ mv libil2cpp_v23 libil2cpp

Rename libil2cpp_vXX to libil2cpp. Open "unity_decoder.sln" using Visual Studio 2017.

how to load strings and method/class from global-metadata.dat

sample apk: https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApYX-BnkUapSgn_fj9o7JsJGz7YU

$ mkdir tmp
$ cp test.apk\assets\bin\Data\Managed\Metadata\global-metadata.dat tmp\
$ cp test.apk\lib\armeabi-v7a\libil2cpp.so tmp\
$ cp unity_metadata_loader/Release/unity_decoder.exe tmp\
$ cp unity_metadata_loader/unity_loader_v23.py tmp\
$ cd tmp
$ ./unity_decoder.exe

Copy global-metadata.dat, libil2cpp.so, unity_decoder.exe and unity_loader_vXX.py to the same folder(ex: tmp), then execute unity_decoder.exe. The exe file will make 2 files which name are "method_name.txt" and "string_literal.txt".

Load libil2cpp.so on IDA, select File -> Script file..., and "unity_loader_v23.py". By the way, this script doesn't support 64bits binary.

# Output window
offset of method start: 0x521e38L
offset of string finish: 0x5212e4L

The script output method base address and string base address.

libil2cpp.so in test.apk, have 2 string "This_is_TEST_CODE_1" and "This_is_TEST_CODE_2".

.data.rel.ro:00521280             DCD StringLiteral_JNI__Unknown_generic_array_type__

libil2cpp.so have testcode$$testcode1 class/method, code of testcode1 method is below.

How to use this script on IDA Demo

IDA Demo doesn't support Python, so install Python2.7 from http://www.python.org/ and idapython from https://github.com/idapython/bin (ex: idapython-6.9.0-python2.7-win.zip).

1. unzip idapython-6.9.0-python2.7-win.zip
2. Copy the "python" directory to "C:\Program Files (x86)\IDA Demo 6.95"
3. Copy the contents of the "plugins" directory to the "C:\Program Files (x86)\IDA Demo 6.95\plugins"
4. Copy "python.cfg" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\IDA Demo 6.95\cfg"
