Sogen is a high-performance Windows user space emulator that operates at syscall level, providing full control over process execution through comprehensive hooking capabilities.
Perfect for security research, malware analysis, and DRM research where fine-grained control over process execution is required.
Built in C++ and powered by the Unicorn Engine or the icicle-emu.
Try it out: sogen.dev
Key Features
- 🔄 Syscall-Level Emulation
- Instead of reimplementing Windows APIs, the emulator operates at the syscall level, allowing it to leverage existing system DLLs
- 📝 Advanced Memory Management
- Supports Windows-specific memory types including reserved, committed, built on top of Unicorn's memory management
- 📦 Complete PE Loading
- Handles executable and DLL loading with proper memory mapping, relocations, and TLS
- ⚡ Exception Handling
- Implements Windows structured exception handling (SEH) with proper exception dispatcher and unwinding support
- 🧵 Threading Support
- Provides a scheduled (round-robin) threading model
- 💾 State Management
- Supports both full state serialization and
fast in-memory snapshots(currently broken 😕)
- Supports both full state serialization and
- 💻 Debugging Interface
- Implements GDB serial protocol for integration with common debugging tools (IDA Pro, GDB, LLDB, VS Code, ...)
