Comments in UserDB.txt files cause the parser to crash #37

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
This line:

return int (value, 16)

crashes when encountering a comment (line starting with ';') in a UserDB.txt 
file.

I have to correct myself here, it's not the semicolons it can't handle, it's 
probably something wrong with the file. The exception gives very little 
information about what failed (which line of signature file, etc)

The file in question is the one provided here:

The UserDB.txt file you point to has several syntax errors. It uses a single 
question mark to denote a byte, there are some semicolons between a packer's 
attributes, and some packers do not have a "ep_only" or "section_start_only" 
attribute. If those issues are fixed, the file loads correctly.
