NEW '_time' obfuscation area in FLEXlm v10 by roli_bark

From playing around with FLEXlm v10.8 target lately, I just want to let you old FLEXlm hackers know, that a NEW memory area is used for _time obfuscation area in newer FLEXlm versions.

To get clear SEEDS revealed, as opposed to the OLD Job Structure area [ where you'd clear 4 random dwords generated by multiple _time calls in "l_n36_buff" ], the new area is noted in "_l_sg" like so:

-----------------------------------

In order to get clear de-obfuscated SEEDs , in _user_l_sg, just before Order/Unique XORs, clear the _time 3 rand dwords at offsets .+0x8, .+0xC, .+0x10 @ arg_0 PTR (new obfuscation area). Then, just as before, break on RETN to get clear seeds [from vendorcode struct .+0x4 & .+0x8] ...

Of course, all the above is ONLY relevant with non-ECC targets ...
