[BUG] Split Strings Broke Code

Info

I use webpack and webpack plugin for obfuscate. Maybe this obfuscator broke webpack code… but I didn’t sure on 100%…

Actualy, need more test. Maybe this trouble is not new and this is a duplicate…

Description

Today, I was write some code. I found what my code, after obfuscation, didn’t work. I would think what this is trouble in properties rename (how I found in readme) I will try change settings, disable all, enable and and etc.

After all tests, I found something…

If I setup ONLY property renamer - all is work fine. If I setup ONLY split strings - all is … fine? But, if I setup settings:

      renameGlobals: true,
      renameProperties: true,
      splitStrings: true,
      splitStringsChunkLength: 1, // Actualy, I test 1 and 3 values. This both call error. If this value 5 or greater all is good

I get error (check stack trace) and my code is BROKEN now.

Expected Behavior

Not broke code with too many symbols in splitStringsChunkLength

Current Behavior

If splitStringsChunkLength < 5 (tested only on 3 and 1 values) I get broken code after obfuscation.

PS: Actually I didn’t know what code really broke after that… maybe webpack, maybe code what I was write…

Steps to Reproduce

I was setup settings in tosplitStrings: true,

1. Setup settings (look in description block)
2. Obfuscate code
3. Try start code
4. Maybe you get the same error like me

I think this trouble verry … hard repeatfull. I think without code (what I can’t share currently) this trouble can be hard to repeat.

Stack trace

VM2399:formatted:287 Uncaught TypeError: _0x1368a0[("b" + "q" + "C" + "a" + "s")] is not a function
    at <anonymous>:1:10081
    at <anonymous>:1:12128
    at <anonymous>:1:46619

Minimal working example that will help to reproduce issue

I can’t share with code from current project (maybe later … if I would can do that) Now, I can give only this line with error:

        if (_0x1368a0['b' + 'q' + 'C' + 'a' + 's'](_0x1368a0['P' + 'I' + 'n' + 'z' + 'c'], _0x1368a0['P' + 'I' + 'n' + 'z' + 'c'])) {

PS: Sorry if I give too low info about all. Call and ask me if you want more info.

This was introduced in 1.12.0 and will be fixed in 2.0.0 soon. Right now you can use javascript-obfuscator and webpack-obfuscator@1.11.0. Thank you for your help!

PS: this bug is a result of the invalid test that didn’t fail when I changed the order of the transformers.

I’ve just released both javascript-obfuscator@1.12.1 and webpack-obfuscator@1.12.1
