vmpfix
VMPfix is a dynamic x86/x64 VMProtect 2.13-3.5 import fixer. The main goal of this project was to build correct and reliable tool to fix imports in x86/x64 applications.
Note: this tool does not dump and rebuild import directory. You can do this from your favorite debugger.

VMProtect unpacking must be complete before running VMPfix.
Details
There are 3 types of IAT accesses that VMProtect patches: call, jmp and mov.
Every stub resolves protected import with only 3 instructions:
lea reg, [imm]
mov reg, [reg + imm]
lea reg, [reg + imm]
Although stubs are obfuscated, there are only handful of instructions that matters:
push
pop
lea
mov
xchg
ret
Call stubs
Every call stub ends with xchg instruction:
call [IAT] -> call .vmp1; int3:
[!] push rax
[!] mov rax,qword ptr [rsp+8]
[!] lea rax,[rax+1]
[!] mov qword ptr [rsp+8],rax
[!] lea rax,[1401269B2h]
[!] mov rax,qword ptr [rax+0FE1D0h]
[!] lea rax,[rax+445A4C4Eh]
[!] xchg rax,qword ptr [rsp]
[!] ret
call [IAT] -> push rcx; call .vmp1:
[!] pop rsi
[!] xchg rsi,qword ptr [rsp]
[!] push rsi
[!] lea rsi,[1401832EDh]
[!] mov rsi,qword ptr [rsi+0A7558h]
[!] lea rsi,[rsi+49C80AACh]
[!] xchg rsi,qword ptr [rsp]
[!] ret
Jmp stubs
Every jmp stub ends with ret 4/8 instruction:
jmp [IAT] -> push rcx; call .vmp1:
[!] pop rcx
[!] xchg rcx,qword ptr [rsp]
[!] push rcx
[!] lea rcx,[1400EE9C4h]
[!] mov rcx,qword ptr [rcx+14F6B2h]
[!] lea rcx,[rcx+36F801BAh]
[!] xchg rcx,qword ptr [rsp]
[!] ret 8
Mov stubs
Every other stub can be considered as mov stub. There are some patterns as well. E.g. there is no ret 8 or xchg at the end.
mov rsi, [IAT] -> push rsi; call .vmp1:
[!] pop rsi
[!] xchg rsi,qword ptr [rsp]
[!] pop rsi
[!] lea rsi,[rsi+1]
[!] push rsi
[!] lea rsi,[14015634Fh]
[!] mov rsi,qword ptr [rsi+0EF63Ch]
[!] lea rsi,[rsi+0C2B009Ah]
[!] ret
