Tool Unity Il2cppdumper for Hopper Disassembler on macOS

[Rook 563k iPad Pro (2nd gen) 17.4 Donor]

 

Thanks to @Ted2 & il2cppdumper online, we can easily import il2cpp dumps (script.json) into Hopper Dissassembler just like we do in IDA using the following Python code:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import json

class LoadIl2cppDumperScript:
    def __init__(self):
        self.document = Document.getCurrentDocument()
        segments = self.document.getSegmentsList()
        self.starting_address = segments[0].getStartingAddress()
        
    def get_address(self, addr):
        return self.starting_address + addr
        
    def process_script(self, script_path):
        with open(script_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as file:
            data = json.load(file)

        if "ScriptMethod" in data:
            self.process_script_methods(data["ScriptMethod"])

        if "ScriptString" in data:
            self.process_script_strings(data["ScriptString"])

        if "ScriptMetadata" in data:
            self.process_script_metadata(data["ScriptMetadata"])

        if "ScriptMetadataMethod" in data:
            self.process_script_metadata_methods(data["ScriptMetadataMethod"])

        print("Script finished!")

    def replace_null_characters(self, string):
        return string.replace("\x00", "")

    def process_script_methods(self, script_methods):
        for script_method in script_methods:
            address = self.get_address(script_method["Address"])
            current_method_name = self.document.getNameAtAddress(address)
            self.document.setNameAtAddress(address, script_method["Name"])
            print(f"Renamed {current_method_name} at {address} to {script_method['Name']}")

    def process_script_strings(self, script_strings):
        for index, script_string in enumerate(script_strings, start=1):
            address = self.get_address(script_string["Address"])

            current_string_name = self.document.getNameAtAddress(address)
            new_string_name = f"StringLiteral_{index}"
            
            self.document.setNameAtAddress(address, new_string_name)
            print(f"Renamed {current_string_name} at {address} to {new_string_name}")

            segment = self.document.getSegmentAtAddress(address)
            if segment:
                inline_comment = self.replace_null_characters(script_string["Value"])
                segment.setInlineCommentAtAddress(address, inline_comment)
                print(f"Set inline comment at address {address} to {inline_comment}")

    def process_script_metadata(self, script_metadata):
        for meta in script_metadata:
            address = self.get_address(meta["Address"])
            self.document.setNameAtAddress(address, meta["Name"])
            print(f"Set name at address {address} to {meta['Name']}")

            segment = self.document.getSegmentAtAddress(address)
            if segment:
                inline_comment = self.replace_null_characters(meta["Name"])
                segment.setInlineCommentAtAddress(address, inline_comment)
                print(f"Set inline comment at address {address} to {inline_comment}")

    def process_script_metadata_methods(self, script_metadata_methods):
        for meta_method in script_metadata_methods:
            address = self.get_address(meta_method["Address"])
            self.document.setNameAtAddress(address, meta_method["Name"])
            print(f"Set name at address {address} to {meta_method['Name']}")

            # Set inline comments
            segment = self.document.getSegmentAtAddress(address)
            if segment:
                inline_comment = self.replace_null_characters(meta_method["Name"])
                segment.setInlineCommentAtAddress(address, inline_comment)
                print(f"Set inline comment at address {address} to {inline_comment}")

                inline_comment_method_address = '{0:X}'.format(self.get_address(meta_method["MethodAddress"]))
                segment.setInlineCommentAtAddress(address, inline_comment_method_address)
                print(f"Set inline comment at address {address} to {inline_comment_method_address}")

    def run(self):
        script_path = self.document.askFile("Choose the script.json from Il2cppdumper", "false", None)

        if not script_path:
            raise Exception("No file selected")
        
        self.process_script(script_path)


LoadIl2cppDumperScript().run()

 

 

Usage
Use il2cppdumper online to dump your Unity app.

PRO TIP You can drag and drop the Decrypted App Store IPA link into il2cppdumper online.

Download the resulting il2cppdumper archive and extract it so the script.json is available. Next open Hopper Disassembler with your executable loaded and go to Scripts > Open Script Editor... > + > Add the Python script above & Run. You can also rename () the newly created "New Script.py" to something like "Il2cppdumper Hopper.py" as it will be saved and appear in Hopper's Scripts menu anytime you need to use it.

Next you simply run the script you just created and select the script.json from il2cppdumper online when asked. 

That's it!

 

Thanks again to @Ted2 for the Hopper version of the il2cppdumper script! We'll be updating il2cppdumper online to include the Hopper version of the script inside the dump archive!

Is hopper better than IDA?

IDA for free is not available on M1/M2/M3 macOS so Hopper is the only option unless you run Windows IDA through Parallels or Crossover.

They're both similar from what I can see.

Yeah I’ll just stick with Parallels and IDA. Thanks though! Plus it’s not keeping my hacking sh!t separate from my Mac

My girlfriend stopped letting me use her Mac once she found out what I was doing with it lol but I do have ida pro crack for windows if anyone would need it. Nice post btw this would be useful once I steal her Mac again and use it at work
