V8 Bytecode Decompiler Link -
Researchers have developed methods to reverse-engineer V8 bytecode, specifically targeting protected Node.js applications by creating Ghidra plugins for deserializing .jsc files. By analyzing V8's Ignition interpreter, which utilizes a register-based structure, tools like ghidra_nodejs recover control flow and constant propagation to convert bytecode back into readable JavaScript for auditing.
