@tuannguyen0328 it's not necessary to write many zeros like that. *One zero* is enough to nuke it.

@.**** That's a big funny patch at 005841f4. Why need 49 bytes here?
…

because hte patch is 49 bytes. old 8 byte patch only set the checker to 1, leaving the four outputs filled with garbage, which could make the license revert randomly. the four field fixes are 11, 11, 12 and 9 bytes respectively + 6 bytes for the return = 49 bytes total

***@***.**** that's not why it revert to unlicensed. You should look at the cracking method of @leogx9r to understand how it works.

How it works

1. Public key replacement — The original RSA-1024 public key is stored XOR-encoded (SM: XOR 0x72, ST: XOR 0xfe). We replace it with a custom key using the same XOR encoding.

2. Hash validation — Sublime computes SHA-256(uppercase_hex(pubkey)) and checks 2 bytes against hardcoded constants. We patch the first constant to match the new key's hash. The second checked byte (position 30) happens to be 0x56 for both keys — no patch needed.

3. License server — license.sublimehq.com → 127.0.0.1/lol.atb.com (same length, prevents online verification).

4. Codesign — Required on macOS after modifying the binary.

How it works

1. Public key replacement — The original RSA-1024 public key is stored XOR-encoded (SM: XOR 0x72, ST: XOR 0xfe). We replace it with a custom key using the same XOR encoding.
2. Hash validation — Sublime computes SHA-256(uppercase_hex(pubkey)) and checks 2 bytes against hardcoded constants. We patch the first constant to match the new key's hash. The second checked byte (position 30) happens to be 0x56 for both keys — no patch needed.
3. License server — license.sublimehq.com → 127.0.0.1/lol.atb.com (same length, prevents online verification).
4. Codesign — Required on macOS after modifying the binary.

Worked great on 4213, 4215 was just released :) I think they are messing with you! can you update this?
