Abstract

The methods and apparatus for detecting malware using JAR file decompilation are disclosed. An apparatus for decompiling class files, the apparatus comprising a class feature unpacker to unpack a class feature from a class file included in an instruction set, a constant pool address generator to generate a constant pool address table, from the class features, including a plurality of constant pool blocks, based on constant pool type, through an iterative process, a class feature identifier to determine values for each constant pool block based on a constant pool type and store the determined values as a class file feature set, a feature value identifier to obtain raw feature values from a class file feature set and non-class file features, and a feature matrix generator to generate a matrix based on the raw features that correspond to the instruction set.
