The VM initializes reg0 as the bytecode length, reg1 as the starting address of encrypted flag. The flag is likely embedded as encrypted bytes in the VM’s memory[] . In the binary, locate the .rodata section – there’s a 512-byte chunk starting at 0x804B040 containing the bytecode + encrypted data. f1vm 32 bit
