Executable files stripped of such context are far more challenging to translate into meaningful source code. Some software developers may obfuscate, pack, or encrypt parts of their executable programs, making the decompiled code much harder to interpret. These techniques are often done to deter reverse-engineering, making the process more ...
Ghidra (pronounced GEE-druh; [3] / ˈ ɡ iː d r ə / [4]) is a free and open source reverse engineering tool developed by the National Security Agency (NSA) of the United States. The binaries were released at RSA Conference in March 2019; the sources were published one month later on GitHub. [5]
The Interactive Disassembler (IDA) is a disassembler for computer software which generates assembly language source code from machine-executable code. It supports a variety of executable formats for different processors and operating systems. It can also be used as a debugger for Windows PE, Mac OS X Mach-O, and Linux ELF executables. A ...
A decompiler is a tool that can reverse-engineer source code from an executable or library. This process is sometimes referred to as a man-in-the-end (mite) attack, inspired by the traditional "man-in-the-middle attack" in cryptography. The decompiled source code is often hard to read, containing random function and variable names, incorrect ...
Radare2 was created in February 2006, [3] aiming to provide a free and simple command-line interface for a hexadecimal editor supporting 64 bit offsets to make searches and recovering data from hard-disks, for forensic purposes.
Binary Ninja is a reverse-engineering platform developed by Vector 35 Inc. [1] It allows users to disassemble a binary file and visualize the disassembly in both linear and graph-based views. The software performs automated, in-depth code analysis, generating information that helps to analyze a binary.
Disassemblers also cannot handle code that changes during execution, as static analysis cannot account for runtime modifications. Encryption, packing, or obfuscation are often applied to computer programs, especially as part of digital rights management to deter reverse engineering and cracking. These techniques pose additional challenges for ...
JEB is a disassembler and decompiler software for Android applications [2] and native machine code. It decompiles Dalvik bytecode to Java source code, and x86, ARM, MIPS, RISC-V machine code to C source code. The assembly and source outputs are interactive and can be refactored. Users can also write their own scripts and plugins to extend JEB ...
