Hercules is a powerful Lua obfuscator designed to make your Lua code nearly impossible to reverse-engineer. With multiple layers of advanced obfuscation techniques, Hercules ensures your scripts are secure from prying eyes.

If you decide to use/fork Hercules, please do star it to show support. It helps out a ton!

Contact either zeusssz_ on Discord for queries, or join the Discord (currently deleted), to use the Herucles Bot.

Caution

Obfuscation is not a foolproof method for protecting your code! Always consider additional security measures depending on your use case.

Note

Hercules is very much still in development and may not be the best yet, but we are committed to making it one of the best. Hercules is currently on version: 1.6.2

---

Features

• String Encoding: Transform strings into seemingly indecipherable formats using an advanced Caesar Cipher, making reverse engineering a daunting task.

• Variable Renaming: Elevates your code's security by replacing original variable names with a unique set of randomly generated identifiers, effectively masking their true intent.

• Control Flow Obfuscation: Introduces intricate, deceptive control flow structures to mislead static analysis tools, ensuring your logic remains obscured from prying eyes.

• Garbage Code Insertion: Strategically inject meaningless code snippets that bloat your scripts, complicating the analysis and deterring attackers.

• Bytecode Encoding: Seamlessly convert critical sections of your script into bytecode, adding an additional layer of complexity that hinders comprehension.

• Function Inlining: Enhances obfuscation by embedding function bodies directly into their calls, effectively disguising the original flow and logic of the code.

• Opaque Predicates: Utilizes constructed conditions that always evaluate to true or false, creating confusion about the actual functionality of your code.

• Dynamic Code Generator: Generates code blocks dynamically from the script itself, complicating static analysis and enhancing security.

• String to Expressions: Transform string literals into complex mathematical expressions, making it nearly impossible to deduce their original meaning.

• Virtual Machinery: Employs a virtual machine environment to execute obfuscated code, adding a layer of execution complexity that challenges traditional analysis techniques.

• Wrap In Function: Encapsulates entire scripts within a function, further obscuring the code's entry points and enhancing overall security.

Tip

You can customize your level of obfuscation through the config.lua file.

Installation

macOS and Linux

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/zeusssz/hercules-obfuscator.git
   cd hercules-obfuscator/src

2. Make the hercules script executable:

   chmod +x hercules

3. Run the obfuscator:

   ./hercules path/to/your/script.lua

Note

Ensure you are in the working directory of the executable, i.e., src by default. Alternatively, you can use the Lua interpreter directly if it is added to your system PATH.

Windows

1. Clone this repository using Git Bash or download the ZIP file and extract it.

2. Open Command Prompt or PowerShell and navigate to the hercules-obfuscator directory.

3. Run the obfuscator using Lua:

   lua src\hercules.lua path\to\your\script.lua

---

Usage

To obfuscate a Lua script using Hercules, simply run:

./hercules path/to/your/script.lua  # macOS/Linux
lua src\hercules.lua path\to\your\script.lua  # Windows

This will generate an obfuscated version of the script in the same directory, with the filename *_obfuscated.lua.

Example

./hercules my_script.lua  # macOS/Linux
lua src\hercules.lua my_script.lua  # Windows

Output: my_script_obfuscated.lua – the obfuscated version of your script.

Original Script : file.lua

-- Function to print a greeting message
function Greet(name)
    print("Hello, " .. name .. "!")
end

-- Function to add two numbers
function Add(a, b)
    return a + b
end

-- Function to test a basic conditional statement
function CheckNumber(num)
    if num > 0 then
        print(num .. " is positive.")
    elseif num < 0 then
        print(num .. " is negative.")
    else
        print(num .. " is zero.")
    end
end

Greet("You")

local sum = Add(5, 10)
print("The sum of 5 and 10 is: " .. sum)

CheckNumber(5)   -- Output: 5 is positive.
CheckNumber(-3)  -- Output: -3 is negative.
CheckNumber(0)   -- Output: 0 is zero.

Obfuscated Script : file_obfuscated.lua (except a few modules (to be fixed soon))

If you specify the overwrite option with the --overwrite flag, it will write back to the specified script.
You may also specify a preset using --min, --mid, or --max. For Example

lua src\hercules.lua my_script.lua --max

Note

Ensure that your custom pipeline file is in the same directory as hercules.lua.

Customization

You can modify or add new modules to the modules/ directory to create additional layers of obfuscation. The pipeline.lua file controls the order of obfuscation steps.

Project Structure

├── hercules            # Main entry point (executable)
├── pipeline.lua        # Obfuscation pipeline
└── modules/            # Obfuscation modules  

Important

When adding more modules to the modules/ directory, ensure you maintain proper order in the pipeline file, to prevent any issues, and remember to add your module to the pipeline.lua file.
If you wish for it to be configurable, add it to the config.lua file, along with the necessary logic.
