Abstract

This paper presents problems with analysis of binary executable files. We introduce to you importance of studying executable files. In the first part, we introduce Portable Executable format (EXE files) with focus on retrieving all necessary information for construction of a control flow graph.

In the next part, we present some information about symbolic instruction language. It follows a description of problems with construction of a control flow graph. There is presented a construction of control flow graph and its analysis with respect to graph serialization and basic programming structures detection.
