The document discusses JavaScript deobfuscation techniques. It begins by introducing common JavaScript obfuscation methods like Eval Packer, Metasploit JSObfu, JSFuck, JJEncode, AAEncode, and others. It then discusses the goals of deobfuscation, including semantics preservation, automation, robustness, readability, and efficiency. Several deobfuscation techniques are presented, such as using a sandboxed runtime environment or static and dynamic analysis with partial evaluation. The document dives deeper into an AST-based approach using Esprima to parse code into an AST and then reduce subtrees. It references an existing deobfuscation tool for JSObfu code and discusses areas for improvement. In the
