This code is obfuscated JavaScript designed to achieve a specific behavior or operation while making it hard to read and understand.
Here is what this code does:
1. Initialization of Variables
- The string
S = 'xxxxxx';
is irrelevant to the rest of the code and is not used. - The variable
i
is initialized asbdd65fd0865d8e48898806a4
. - The variable
j
is a long hexadecimal-encoded string representing encoded data.
2. Hexadecimal String Processing
- The string
j
is split into 2-character segments usingj.match(/.{2}/g)
, resulting in an array of hexadecimal values (u
). - A loop iterates through
u
, decodes each hexadecimal value into its numeric equivalent usingparseInt()
, and XORs it with a character fromi
(cyclically, based onB % i.length
). - Each result is converted to a character using
String.fromCharCode()
, and all characters are concatenated into a final strings
.
Essentially, this step decodes/obfuscates the string j
using a key (i
) with a cyclic XOR operation.
3. Dynamic Behavior with toString
A.toString()
is designed to dynamically decode and execute the content of the strings
.- Specifically:
[115,111,109,101]
decodes into the word"some"
, and the character codes[99,111,110,115,116,114,117,99,116,111,114]
decode to the word"constructor"
.- Using these,
[][ "some" ][ "constructor" ]
accesses the JavaScriptFunction
constructor. - The
Function
constructor compiles and executes the strings
as JavaScript code.
4. Actual Payload Execution
- The code fragment
A + ''
triggers theA.toString()
function, causings
to be executed as JavaScript code.
5. Implications
- The code
j
is likely an encoded payload (malicious or benign) that will be decoded and executed dynamically at runtime. This functionality is commonly seen in malicious scripts or obfuscated code.
How To Analyze It Further
- You need to extract the value of
s
after the decryption step and inspect the resulting plain JavaScript code. - By printing or logging the variable
s
, you can check what the payload does. However, keep in mind that it could execute harmful actions (e.g., data exfiltration, phishing) if run in a real environment.
Here is a safer way to modify the code for analysis:
(() => {
const i = "bdd65fd0865d8e48898806a4",
j = "150d0a525a114a5c57555410510a5a16504b5d5e100b4155160b061e55072c62581d12545b2d13131a740e74121d434d5a1d461d55043057581d12505a571313585a4d62501d015a340e041d123f09091f1d121174081313586f4274501d46042452431d55373254581d5529593254131a77086e121d46042055431d552b1e7e581d122b620c13131a01531a191d320f";
const u = j.match(/.{2}/g), T = [];
for (let B = 0; B < u.length; B++) {
T.push(String.fromCharCode(parseInt(u[B], 16) ^ i.charCodeAt(B % i.length)));
}
const s = T.join('');
console.log(s); // Safely inspect the decoded string
})();
By logging s
, you can inspect the payload for further analysis. If you're analyzing code of unknown or potentially harmful origin, always conduct your tests in a safe, isolated environment (e.g., a sandbox or virtual machine).
