Abstract

This paper comprehensively combed relevant literatures at home and abroad in this field, and summarized the research status and development trend of automatic protocol reverse engineering. In order to more clearly depict the characteristics of the different methods and compare similarities and differences, this paper proposed a classification method based on the reverse engineering output of the protocol, divided the protocol reverse method into four categories, namely, focusing on protocol format extraction, focusing on protocol state machine inference, focusing on complete protocol specification description, focusing on other output results, and made analysis and comparison based on the above. Based on current progress and further analysis of the problem, it found that complex interaction scenario analysis, link layer protocol reverse, encryption protocol analysis and protocol state machine optimization should be the next important research direction in the field of automatic protocol reverse engineering.
