Just decided to try out the obfuscation with an actual project of mine. PassGen and when I ran the main python file. It gave no errors and no output.

Steps to reproduce:

• Clone PassGen repo
• Make virtual environment, install packages, get all that stuff set up.
• Run passgen.py once and let it set up its .env file.
• Use dropper to obfuscate passgen.py
• Move obf_passgen.py into PassGen Directory, delete passgen.py, and rename obf_passgen.py to passgen.py.
• Run the new obfuscated passgen.py file in the PassGen directory.

What happens

• No output, no errors, nothing happens.
  

What should happen

• Run code and pull up an interactive menu with options.
  

Trying to run the newly obfuscated python script/file gave me the following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/ori/Desktop/Dropper/obf_uwu.py", line 21, in <module>
    (lambda _0xc7b4:(

RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded during compilation

Everything seems to be obfuscated just fine, but trying to execute/run the file didn't work.

Asked a friend to deobfuscate it, took 20 minutes

in core.py line 91 it checks if the token can be an integer but tokenizer.NUMBER doesn't always represent an integer so it may result in an error like this:
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '0o0755'

Obfuscation "bomb". (Crash/Lockup/Freeze)

So I decided to try out obfuscating a file multiple times and then ran the file. It froze/locked up my computer/laptop.
So I thought I'd share it.

Steps to reproduce:

• Obfuscate a python file like normal. (Preferably a large file)
• Obfuscate the obfuscated file. (obf_obf_file.py)
• Do this a couple more times. (obf_obf_obf_obf.....etc_file.py. The more the better.)
• Run python3 <insert VERY obfuscated file>.
• Computer will lock up/freeze. Need to restart.

System Information:

• OS: Manjaro Linux x86_64
• Kernel: 5.10.93-1-MANJARO
• CPU: Intel i7-8565U (8) @ 4.600GHz
• RAM: 8GB

Note: I don't doubt that if you obfuscate one file enough times, it'll still work on higher end computers. (Feel free to test)
I also didn't see the "Discussions" tab enabled so I thought I'd just drop this here in the "issues" for now.
