Let’s address the elephant in the room: why “Blue Fox”? This book was originally supposed to contain an overview of the Arm instruction set, chapters on reverse engineering, and chapters on exploit mitigation internals and bypass techniques. The publisher and I soon realized that covering these topics to a satisfactory extent would make this book about 1,000 pages long. For this reason, we decided to split it into two books: Blue Fox and Red Fox. The Blue Fox edition covers the analyst view; teaching you everything you need to know to get started in reverse engineering. Without a solid understanding of the fundamentals, you can’t move to more advanced topics such as vulnerability analysis and exploit development. The Red Fox edition will cover the offensive security view: understanding exploit mitigation internals, bypass techniques, and common vulnerability patterns. As of this writing, the Arm architecture reference manual for the Armv8-A architecture (and Armv9-A extensions) contains 11,952 pages1 and continues to expand. This reference manual was around 8,000 pages2 long when I started writing this book two years ago. Security researchers who are used to reverse engineering x86/64 binaries but want to adopt to the new era of Arm-powered devices are having a hard time finding digestible resources on the Arm instruction set, especially in the context of reverse engineering or binary analysis. Arm’s architecture reference manual can be both overwhelming and discouraging. In this day and age, nobody has time to read a 12,000-page deeply technical document, let alone identify the most relevant or most commonly used instructions and memorize them. The truth is that you don’t need to know every single Arm instruction to be able to reverse engineer an Arm binary. Many instructions have very specific use cases that you may or may not ever encounter during your analysis.
