PE module
#########
The PE module allows you to create more fine-grained rules for PE files by
using attributes and features of the PE file format. This module exposes most of
the fields present in a PE header and provides functions which can be used to
write more expressive and targeted rules. Let's see some examples:
.. code-block:: yara
import "pe"
rule single_section
{
condition:
pe.number_of_sections == 1
}
rule control_panel_applet
{
condition:
pe.exports("CPlApplet")
}
rule is_dll
{
condition:
pe.characteristics & pe.DLL
}

This example will make sure the offset for the virtual address in the first
section equals the file offset for that section.
