Vulkan dumps the main PE image of a process from memory to your disk. It targets processes protected by dynamic code encryption, implemented by the hyperion and theia anti-tamper solutions. Vulkan constantly queries pages in the .text section of the target process and caches pages of code as they decrypt themselves. After a desired amount of the application has been decrypted (configurable via --decrypt), the restored PE image is saved to the disk and ready for analysis.

Vulkan has been tested on Roblox and The Finals.

After downloading the latest version from the releases tab, you can run it from the command line like so:

vulkan.exe -p <TARGET_PROCESS> -o <OUTPUT_DIRECTORY>

If no output directory is specified, the file will be saved to the current working directory (.).

An optional -D parameter can also be specified if you want to run Vulkan in debug mode. This will prevent any regular user-mode application from querying information about Vulkan.

Another optional parameter -t can be used to add a timestamp to the output file. For example, if your output file is named program.exe, and you run Vulkan with the -t option, the file will be saved as program_2024-09-08.exe

By default, the decryption factor is set to 1.0, meaning the dumping process will only conclude once all the application's code has been decrypted. This can take an incredibly long time, so if at any moment you want to terminate the current decryption task, use Ctrl+C in the terminal, and the dump will be saved as is.

If you want to set the target decryption factor manually, you can do it from the command line like so:

vulkan.exe -p <TARGET_PROCESS> -o <OUTPUT_DIRECTORY> --decrypt <TARGET_FACTOR>

Note: Increasing the decryption factor will significantly increase the time it takes to produce the dump. It is recommended that the factor be between 0.6 and 0.7.
