YAK Pro - Php Obfuscator 3.x

YAK Pro stands for Yet Another Killer Product.

Free, Open Source, Published under the MIT License.

This tool parses php with the best existing php parser PHP-Parser 5.x, which is an awesome php parsing library written by nikic.

You just have to download the zip archive and uncompress it under the PHP-Parser subdirectory, or make a git clone ...

[!WARNING] yakpro-po 3.x works on PhpParser 5.x
it will run on php >= 7.4, obfuscating code for php 7.0 to php 8.x

If you are running php 7.0 or higher for obfuscating php 5.2 to 8.3,
Please use unsupported yakpro-po 2.x which works on 4.x branch of PhpParser.

If you are running php 5.3 or higher,
Please use unsupported yakpro-po 1.x which works on 1.x branch of PhpParser.

[!CAUTION] Backward Compatibility Break in yakpro-po.cnf:
$conf->parser_mode possible values have changed:
before: 'PREFER_PHP7', 'PREFER_PHP5', 'ONLY_PHP7', 'ONLY_PHP5'
now : 'HOST_VERSION', 'NEWEST_VERSION', or version number like '8.1'
refer to PHP-Parser documentation for meaning...

The yakpro-po.cnf self-documented file contains many configuration options! Take a look at it!

Demo : yakpro-po demo.

Prerequisites: php 7.4 or higher, PHP-Parser 5.x.

[!NOTE] This tool has been written in order to obfuscate pure php sources.
it is not intended to be used with html and embeded php inside.
(use at your own risks...you may try to deactivate statements shuffling...).
You can still embed html within php using the echo <<<END ... END; syntax!

What is Php Obfuscation?

When you have a php project you want to distribute, as php is a script interpretor, you distribute also all the sources of your software!

You may want, for any reason, that other people do not understand, modify, or adapt your software.

As your software must be understandable by the php runtime, but needs to be very difficult to understand by human people, obfuscation is a very good way to achieve this goal.

YAK Pro - Php Obfuscator Obfuscation Main Features:

Removes all comments, indentation, and generates a single line program file.
Obfuscates if, else, elseif, for, while, do while by replacing them with if goto statements.
Obfuscates string literals.
Scrambles names for:
- Variables, Functions, Constants.
- Classes, Interfaces, Traits.
- Properties, Methods.
- Namespaces.
- Labels.
Shuffles Statements.
Recursivly obfuscates a project's directory.
Makefile like, timestamps based mechanism, to re-obfuscate only files that were changed since last obfuscation.
Many configuration options that let you have full control of what is obfuscated within your project!

Why Yet Another Php Obfuscator?

I began testing some already existing php obfuscation tools, but I did'nt find one that was fitting all my needs. I wanted a simple command line tool, based on a highly customisable config file, that would be able to:

Be fast and re-obfuscate only files that were changed based on timestamps of files.
Preserve some files and/or directories from obfuscation.
Not include in the obfuscated target, some files/directories that are present on the source project.
Accept lists of names and/or name prefixes to not obfuscate.

So I started to write this tool. Version 1.0 has been written within a few days...

Setup:

Note: This setup is also valid for Windows 10 Anniversary with bash installed...  
1. Prerequisites: git and php-cli (command line interface) packages. 
   on ubuntu: (adapt according your linux distribution) 
   # apt install git 
   # apt install php-cli
   do not forget to install all other php modules that you are using within your software:
        for example: apt install php-mysql if you are using mysql... 
2. Navigate to the directory where you want to install yakpro-po (/usr/local is a good idea): 
   # cd /usr/local 
3. Then retrieve from GitHub: 
   # git clone https://github.com/pk-fr/yakpro-po.git 
4. Go to the yakpro-po directory: 
   # cd yakpro-po 
5. Then retrieve from GitHub: 
   # git clone https://github.com/nikic/PHP-Parser.git --branch 4.x
6. Check that yakpro-po.php has execute rights, otherwise:
                                        # chmod a+x yakpro-po.php 
7. Create a symbolic link in the /usr/local/bin directory
   # cd /usr/local/bin 
   # ln -s /usr/local/yakpro-po/yakpro-po.php yakpro-po 
8. You can now run yakpro-po 
   # yakpro-po --help 
   # yakpro-po test.php 

Modify a copy of the yakpro-po.cnf to fit your needs...
Read the "Configuration file loading algorithm" section of this document
to choose the best location suiting your needs!

That's it! You're done!

Usage:

yakpro-po Obfuscates according configuration file! (See configuration file loading algorithm)

yakpro-po source_filename Obfuscates code to stdout

yakpro-po source_filename -o target_filename Obfuscates code to target_filename

yakpro-po source_directory -o target_directory Recursivly obfuscates code to target_directory/yakpro-po (creates it if it does not already exist).

yakpro-po --config-file config_file_path According to config_file_path.

yakpro-po --clean Requires target_directory to be present in your config file! Recursivly removes target_directory/yakpro-po

Configuration file loading algorithm:

(the first found is used)

--config-file argument value
YAKPRO_PO_CONFIG_FILE environment variable value if existing and not empty.

filename selection:
       YAKPRO_PO_CONFIG_FILENAME environment variable value if existing and not empty,
       yakpro-po.cnf otherwise.

 file is then searched in the following directories:
        YAKPRO_PO_CONFIG_DIRECTORY  environment variable value if existing and not empty.
        current_working_directory
        current_working_directory/config
        home_directory
        home_directory/config
        /usr/local/YAK/yakpro-po
        source_code_directory/default_conf_filename

  if no config file is found, default values are used.

  You can find the default config file as an example in the yakpro-po.cnf file of the
  repository.
  Do not modify it directly because it will be overwritten at each update!
  Use your own yakpro-po.cnf file (for example in the root directory of your project)

  When working on directories,
  context is saved in order to reuse the same obfuscation translation table.
  When you make some changes in one or several source files,
  yakpro-po uses timestamps to only reobfuscate files that were changed
  since the last obfuscation.
  This can save you a lot of time.

  caveats: does not delete files that are no more present...
           use --clean  command line parameter, and then re-obfuscate all!

Other command line options:

(override config file settings)

--silent                            do not display Information level messages.
--debug                             (internal debugging use) displays the syntax tree.

--whatis scrambled_name             retrieves original symbol from obfuscation context.
                                    (usefull for debugging your code when you give away
                                    obfuscated code, and keep the same obfuscation context).
                                    Tip: do not include the $ symbol, or use \$ because
                                    $ has special meaning in shell.

-h or
--help                              displays help.

YOU MUST BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING:

If your obfuscated software makes use of external libraries
that you do not obfuscate along with your software:

if the library consists of functions:
        set the $conf->obfuscate_function_name to false in your yakpro-po.cnf config file,
        or declare all the functions names you are using in $conf->t_ignore_functions
        example : $conf->t_ignore_functions = array('my_func1','my_func2');

if the library consists of classes :
        set the $conf->obfuscate_class_name,
                $conf->obfuscate_property_name,
                $conf->obfuscate_method_name
        to false in your yakpro-po.cnf config file...
        ... or declare all the classes, properties, methods names you are using in
                $conf->t_ignore_classes,
                $conf->t_ignore_properties,
                $conf->t_ignore_methods.

This is also true for PDO::FETCH_OBJ that retrieves properties from external source
(i.e. database columns).

Hints for preparing your Software to be run obfuscated

At first you can test obfuscating only variable names...

If you obfuscate functions, do not use indirect function calls like
    $my_var = 'my_function';
    $my_var();
or put all the function names you call indirectly in
