Is it possible to hide members for a COM object?

[4Eyes 10]

Folks,

This:

Local $objEmail = ObjCreate("CDO.Message")

    $objEmail.From = '"' & "?" & '" <' & "?" & '>'                          ; These methods ('From' 'to' 'subject' etc stick out like dogs balls in the obf code, but dunno what else I can do
    $objEmail.To = "?@?"

    $objEmail.Subject = $s_Subject
    $objEmail.Textbody = "?" & @CRLF

    $objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2
    $objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "?"
    $objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25

    ; Authenticated SMTP
    $objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate") = 1
    $objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername") = "?"
    $objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Item("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword") = "?"  ; This introduces another p/w but would only yield a hacker access to this email account.

    ;Update settings
    $objEmail.Configuration.Fields.Update

    ; Send the Message
    $objEmail.Send

when obfuscated becomes this:

Local $A3B30D64635 = ObjCreate($A2A30E65005)
$A3B30D64635.From = $A2630F60148 & $A024006214A & $A0E40162A1A & $A1440261939 & $A3A40361105
$A3B30D64635.To = $A2140466024
$A3B30D64635.Subject = $A12B8333B03
$A3B30D64635.Textbody = $A154056232F & Execute($A3840666128)
$A3B30D64635.Configuration.Fields.Item($A4440761F2F) = Number($A454086473F)
$A3B30D64635.Configuration.Fields.Item($A494096054C) = $A2440A6034E
$A3B30D64635.Configuration.Fields.Item($A4C40B61D3B) = Number($A5340C6161D)
$A3B30D64635.Configuration.Fields.Item($A4840D61E45) = Number($A2E40E63A56)
$A3B30D64635.Configuration.Fields.Item($A4740F64B11) = $A1C50062C2B
$A3B30D64635.Configuration.Fields.Item($A6150164A3C) = $A5F50262A12
$A3B30D64635.Configuration.Fields.Update
$A3B30D64635.Send

Is there some way to hide the com object members like From, To etc?

Hi 4Eyes,

I don't think so, because an obfuscated autoit script is - after all - still an autoit script.

So if you want to access methods or attrubutes of objects you need to name them correctly.

You might have a chance using Execute() ...

The best thing you can do is encrypt or hash the information you want to hide. something like .To = Decrypt("dasdasdasfal;sdas;ld")

Hannes123,

Guten Tag and g'day!

I'm sure there is no way around it, but there are clever (and sometimes devious) people here. I was hoping for something.

Juvigy,

I think you may have misunderstood what I was getting at, but thanks for the reply. Yes, I can encrypt or otherwise 'hide' the data, but I'm trying to obfuscate the methods associated with an object. For example, instead of:

$myObj.To = "me@home.com"

I'd like to have:

$myObj.Execute("something or other that the obfuscator won't choke on but is difficult to read")

or similar.
