<p class="MsoNormal">Below, if we start at the first position, A9, the A register would be loaded with the value A0, then there would be relative branch. However, if we start executing at the second, A0, the Y register would be loaded with 10 and then there
would be subroutine call. One could imagine modeling the effects with a constraint solver to embed two distinct programs in the same byte sequence. Neither would be encrypted, but one of them wouldn’t be visible without changing the readers reference frame.
I don’t think a reverse engineer would spot it just from a disassembly. <o:p></o:p></p>
