Overview

This skill provides deep integration with Ghidra and IDA Pro for comprehensive binary analysis and reverse engineering tasks.

Capabilities

  • Execute Ghidra headless analysis scripts
  • Parse and interpret disassembly output
  • Generate and run Ghidra Python scripts
  • Analyze decompiled code for vulnerabilities
  • Extract function signatures and data structures
  • Create and apply Ghidra type definitions
  • Export analysis artifacts (call graphs, data flows)
  • Support IDA Pro scripting (IDAPython)

Target Processes

  • binary-reverse-engineering.js
  • firmware-analysis.js
  • malware-analysis.js
  • vulnerability-root-cause-analysis.js

Dependencies

  • Ghidra CLI (analyzeHeadless)
  • IDA Pro (optional, for IDAPython support)
  • Python 3.x with ghidra_bridge or ghidrathon
  • Java Runtime Environment (for Ghidra)

Usage Context

This skill is essential for:

  • Static binary analysis workflows
  • Vulnerability discovery in compiled code
  • Malware reverse engineering
  • Firmware extraction and analysis
  • Protocol reverse engineering from binaries

Integration Notes

  • Ghidra headless mode enables automated analysis pipelines
  • Results can be exported as JSON, XML, or custom formats
  • Supports both script-based and interactive analysis workflows
  • Can generate Ghidra project files for manual follow-up
