using (Stream manifestResourceStream = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("Aura.zero"))

using (Stream manifestResourceStream = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("Aura.zero"))

do you have the actual code that accesses this resource?

Elmishh•11mo ago

that is the code that accessed it

        using (Stream manifestResourceStream = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("Aura.zero"))
        {
            using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(new MemoryStream(UnHush(Read(manifestResourceStream)))))
            {
                _list = streamReader.ReadToEnd().Split(new string[]
                {
                    Environment.NewLine
                }, StringSplitOptions.None).ToList<string>();
            }
        }

        using (Stream manifestResourceStream = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("Aura.zero"))
        {
            using (StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(new MemoryStream(UnHush(Read(manifestResourceStream)))))
            {
                _list = streamReader.ReadToEnd().Split(new string[]
                {
                    Environment.NewLine
                }, StringSplitOptions.None).ToList<string>();
            }
        }

    private static byte[] Read(Stream A_0)
    {
        byte[] result;
        using (MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream())
        {
            A_0.CopyTo(memoryStream); // THIS RETURNS AN NRE
            result = memoryStream.ToArray();
        }
        return result;
    }

    private static byte[] Read(Stream A_0)
    {
        byte[] result;
        using (MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream())
        {
            A_0.CopyTo(memoryStream); // THIS RETURNS AN NRE
            result = memoryStream.ToArray();
        }
        return result;
    }

anyone?

there's not anything to say what it is; a quick google search shows zero is frequently xeno innovations, some medical company. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Elmishh•11mo ago

yeah i tried googling

Mayor McCheese•11mo ago

What are you actually trying to solve?

Elmishh•11mo ago

theres nothing about that kind of file type im decrpyting some code

Mayor McCheese•11mo ago

Sounds pretty sus at this point tbh

Elmishh•11mo ago

trying to decrpyt a piece of code in a virus that was encrypted using that took me long enough just to get past the compiling errors on the decoder

File extensions are just suggestions The data could be anything
