6. 10. Is it possible to reverse engineer obfuscated bytecode back to source code?

   University essay from KTH/Hälsoinformatik och logistik

   Author : Gustav Smedberg; Jenny Malmgren; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : AbstractThere are a lot of old software in the world that has not been supported or kept up todate and would need to be updated to seal security vulnerabilities, as well as to updatefunctions in the program. In those cases where the source code has been lost ordeliberately deleted, would it be possible to use reverse engineering to retrieve thesource code?This study aims to show what java bytecode is and how it is used, as well as how oneis able to go from java bytecode back to source code in a process called Reverse Engineering.
