not working tho

@Destitute-Streetdwelling-Guttersnipe

This works for most of the Sublime Text 4.X x64 (Including 4107) - block the license check via host or patch it out of EXE

RSA Key Patch (allows any key in right format to work)

Search for ...
4157415656575553B828210000
Replace with ...
33C0FEC0C3575553B828210000

Disable License Check (You can do this via hosts file if you rather)

Search for...
6C6963656E73652E7375626C696D6568712E636F6D
Replace with ...
7375626C696D6568712E6C6F63616C686F73740000

You can now use any license basically that follows the same syntax/format/key.

This one still works for ST/SM in Windows. But it needs another patch to stop the "Persistent License Check 1".

All ST license works on all platforms except that it's a banned license in later build, which is this case. You can safely assume all leaked license here will be banned soon. But at least it works on 4126.

You should ask the TNT team then. TNT uses pre-cracked binary. Those "invalid" licenses only work on TNT's releases.

I do consider it's VERY easy to find cracked ST/SM or recipe on the internet. But if you have various limitations on this like

  • it must provide a license
  • it must be TNT release

then good luck. I doubt that there is ST 4134 released by TNT.


@maboloshi is so kind that he has summed up all information for you and even provide recipes. You can crack it just by copy and paste commands. I don't see why you need TNT's release at this point. TNT's release is more like a blackbox which theoretically is more dangerous even we know TNT has "good" reputation in cracking.

@DeveloperKev you can learn from this guide https://gist.github.com/opastorello/05f02f902339ebc27ea7f20c1838b066
or from posts of @leogx9r in this gist (such as https://gist.github.com/JerryLokjianming/71dac05f27f8c96ad1c8941b88030451?permalink_comment_id=3762200#gistcomment-3762200). There would be more resources if you search in crack forums.

t94xr commented Nov 26, 2022

Antivirus software aren't very intelligent, they can't interpret code like we can, they just see code - be it in a program legitimately for a good purpose or code in a malicious program, it's safer for everyone if that code is considered malicious than to find out later that it's not, thinking that it's safe. This is what you call a "false positive" - it's incredibly common.

Hell many years ago, I would make ESET Nod32 go insane, after renaming a blank text file to keygen.exe ... It was very amsuing to see it go apeshit over literally nothing when explaining to clients about viruses and threats.

@t94xr is clever, and actually has some credibility on Github. It's also true that some AV's do indeed pick up Keygens. The problem is that when it's Keygen + Malware, the AV picks up the first, people disable it, and get hit by the second.

The download did actually have a Keygen (It was about 1/4 the size of the upload) - It just also had malware.

but is 520kb, contains sandbox evasion code, is packed with UPX, alters the registry, and contains multiple other dlls and files - Including the actual 110.5kb file which it subsequently runs to appear legitimate.

If you had really look at the exe you'd see there's nothing like sandbox evasion or whatever. It's a simple Nullsoft installer that unpack the dlls and the keygen in temp dir and execute it from there. You can just unpack it with 7zip if you want. The Keygen itself is 110kb and is compiled with GCC, is NOT packed with UPX or any other packer, and is easy to analyze in IDA or Ghidra to see there is no bad code in there.

It just also had malware.

You are simply a liar.

This version is not only uploaded to a random site that makes you wait 45 seconds to start downloading, but is 520kb, contains sandbox evasion code, is packed with UPX, alters the registry, and contains multiple other dlls and files - Including the actual 110.5kb file which it subsequently runs to appear legitimate.
The user ShaGrAt-LsD also has 0 public gists, and hasn't committed to Github in at least a year, with no activity since they forked 3 repos at the start of last year.
I personally wouldn't trust this random file.

@Reelix I have analyzed the program on triage, and the sandbox scan can be viewed here.
It's packed with ACProtect + UPX,

No it's not. It seems it's time to get better tools...

It works. Start with a clean, portable source, when you search in HxD, click on the Hex tab. After you search for & replace the two values, then save the file in HxD and exit and open the file. Click on Help then Enter License, copy/paste the license (altering the [Enter your name] with your name). It's going to attempt to connect so that's why having a firewall (Simplewall) is crucial.

Sorry, are you actually trying to claim that you accidentally have multiple IoC's, and that it was due to changing some hex bytes?

This patcher also makes no internet connections, does not interact or even open any other files on the computer except the target exe (sublime text).

(I have even tried changing the permissions of the folder but it says its already a read-write, but also tells me its a read only when i try changing permissions via terminal)

The patch is legit, I've used it on Linux and Windows and it works.

it is not hard to apply the patch. I am not even saying it doesn't work. Plenty of malware disguises itself as something legitimate and may even do that legitimate thing (or in this case the act of cracking the application). Plenty also does not do anything suspect for some period of time, or even for most users only phoning home with some basic information and to wait to see if it should do something else or run something truly malicious.

What I am saying is you are running closed source binary executable code in full trust situations on your system from a stranger. I am saying that the binary itself has code in it from "The Backdoor Factory" linked above, that is a toolkit primarily used for remote code execution and root kits.

It is not impossible that code is used in a non-nefarious way but there are also plenty of ways not to use it.

If (hopefully) ones suspect level of random strangers binaries is a 8/10 by default and then that binary has ties with a known backdoor maybe think twice about running it...

@JavaTryCatchMe

I am the author of SelfPatcher. Please do share the proof you've found that my patcher uses TBF github.com/secretsquirrel/the-backdoor-factory. That would be interesting.

The only 3rd-party lib I used is https://github.com/secretsquirrel/SigThief whose code is fairly short and I believe it doesn't use TBF. I believe I don't I use TBF for sure. The only thing left is https://github.com/Nuitka/Nuitka which I used to compile my module into .pyd/.so files. I don't believe it uses TBF for sure (otherwise, a big news).


Fwiw, people are less active here. https://gist.github.com/maboloshi/feaa63c35f4c2baab24c9aaf9b3f4e47 is much more active. Actually, SelfPatcher is open-source to some of trusted cracker there, but you don't have to believe me.

@JavaTryCatchMe

First, sorry @Aholicknight sorry I missed your initial comment requesting what I found related to TBF. I saw the defencedog notification and the reply after that, and didn't scroll back far enough.

@n6333373 if I made a mistake, and spending some more time in IDA it is likely so, I apologize. After being pointed to the plugin I noticed the binary distribution which was a bit odd, rather than just the dependencies/tools. I spent about 10 minutes looking for anything horrific originally. It involving compiled python always adds a layer of abstraction. There wasn't anything obvious. There were no obvious network imports but these things can be hidden.

Only a spurious comment about code from BDF.

image

This paired with the one obvious link as well in the code of "https://github.com/sponsors/secretsquirrel" which first and foremost talks about their primary project of the Back Door Factory and malware related topics.

Again this was a dozen minutes reviewing a suspect random binary in an area where things can often be fraught with malicious code. It wasn't run, there was no deep analysis.

So of course with the comments I went back and took some more time.

As I see it now now:

  • After running the extension sandboxed and reviewing the changes made to the assembly on the main executable there is almost certainly no malicious changes made.

  • The references I found, while existed, clearly were not from the BDF library but the SigThief library @n6333373 mentioned. Specifically https://github.com/secretsquirrel/SigThief/blob/ffb501bcd86acd439e4458a33e9fc5ebed4b59a8/sigthief.py#L14 . SigTheif doesn't do anything malicious only transfer signatures between PEBs and is not used in a malicious way here.

  • There are no other signs of anything malicious, network connections, etc. This isn't a full breakdown but again with a deeper dive than a glancing pass. Can things hide through something like this? Sure but is it likely here? no. I will note I only looked at the windows binary and not the linux library.

As I said at the top and will say it again now, I was almost certainly wrong. @n6333373 is quite believable and I am sorry for the hasty conclusions I initially made.
