As the importance of computer systems in modern-day societies grows, so does the damage that malicious software causes. The security industry and malware authors engaged in an arms race, in which the first creates better detection systems while the second try to evade them. In fact, any wrong assumption (no matter how subtle) in the design of an anti-malware tool may create new avenues for evading detection. This thesis focuses on two often overlooked aspects of modern malware analysis techniques: the use of API-level information to encode malicious behavior and the reimplementation of parsing routines for executable file formats in security-oriented tools. We show that taking advantage of these practices is possible on a large and automate...
