  "bluf": "MITRE CAPEC-190 (Reverse Engineer an Executable to Expose Assumed Hidden Functionality) is a detailed-level attack pattern in the MITRE Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification. An attacker analyzes a binary file or executable for the purpose of discovering the structure, function, and possibly source-code of the file by using a variety of analysis techniques to effectively determine how the software functions and operates. This type of analysis is also referred to as Reverse Code Engineering, as techniques exist for extracting source code from an executable. Likelihood of attack: Unknown. Typical severity: Low. Maps to weaknesses CWE-912.",
