Parsing relocations in a PE file

[lexika979]

Hello, I may need some help understanding how to use goblin for my use case. I'd like to manually map a PE and execute it. Of course, i need to first fix the relocations so that the addresses match. Unfortunately, I cannot find a way to do this with goblin. I tried something like this:

        let pe = PE::parse(&self.bytes)?;
        for sec in pe.sections {
            if let Ok(mut v) = sec.relocations(&self.bytes) {
                debug!("{} {:?}", String::from_utf8(sec.name.to_vec())?, v.next());
            }
        }

And also some other things, but cannot get it to work. I'd appreciate any advice! :)

PE uses relocations in the base relocation data directory, not COFF relocations in sections. You can use get_base_relocation_table to get the data directory, but there doesn't appear to be anything to parse it yet.

Right, so maybe that should be something mentioned in the readme, especially if goblin claims to be the "one-stop shop for binary parsing, loading, and analysis"

No, it would be more appropriate for it to be added to goblin. PRs are accepted.
