SDK 11.x How to find Vendor_Name and Vendor_Key5 in application !!

[avics]

I'm working with Gede on this project.
I also came across the l_n36_buf function.
Contains a lot of noise, calculating some constants...
And then in between stuff like this:

Xref Line Column Pseudocode line
r 1099 12 else if ( buf )
w 1230 6 buf[8] = 0;
w 1341 6 buf[7] = byte_10149020;
w 1354 6 buf[3] = 's';
w 1371 6 buf[2] = 'p';
w 1462 6 buf[4] = byte_10149120;
w 1747 6 buf[1] = 'i';
w 1772 6 buf[5] = byte_10148D7C;
w 1829 7 *buf = 'm';
w 1924 6 buf[6] = byte_10148DDC;
w 1991 6 buf[10] = byte_10148AFC;
w 2082 6 buf[9] = byte_10148B20;

What I also did was attaching windbg to the binary, set breakpoints in the lmgr module:
bm lmgr11!*
and with using
.dump /ma <to a file location>.dmp
and then analyze this minidump in IDA Pro.

The advantage is that it is more easy to look and annotate the values in the idb.

For example looking at the dotNet code using dotPeek one of the classes handling the license has the vendorcode embedded:

debug097:07971788 dd offset my_lm_handle ; lm_handle_ptr_ptr


The lm_handle_ptr_ptr points to the lm_handle.

It seems to me that a license key should look something like this:

FEATURE tla mips 2.000 etc.
FEATURE altera mips 2.000 etc
FEATURE xilinx mips 2.000 etc.



The problem however is that in the SDK 11.14 the size of the lm_handle is 0x1B0 while in the actual code 0x1A0 is allocated.
Which means that the 11.14 for the LM_INTERNAL part it is slightly larger than for 11.4 SDK.

If anyone has the 11.4 SDK please let me know where to find it... Or al least the header files in machind.

I got to tell, this is fun!

Hi I found an old link to SDK11.4 but link is dead.

11.9 multiplatform

If you have SDK 11.4 and or SDK 11.9 could you provide a new link for download @ mega.nz
