018 - Ghidra

Thomas Daede joined us after the Mountain View Reverse Engineering Meetup to talk about Ghidra. Ghidra is the NSA’s newly-released-to-the-public software reverse engineering tool. The source has not yet been released, but there’s a Ghidra Github placeholder. Some of the other things we talked about: Application Binary Interfaces Dissasemblers The Sharp X68000 computer IDA radare Virt-manager objdump Thomas also mentioned @marcan42’s example of comparing his own PowerPC code with Ghidra’s decompiled output. CrowdSupply’s Teardown conference is coming up in Portland, June 21-23. BlackHoodie will be back in the SF Bay Area in April. Women in Security and Privacy (@wisporg) has a scholarship program for DEFCON. You can apply for the scholarship online. They’ll cover the DEFCON ticket as well as a $500 stipend for travel/accommodation. If you want to help, you can donate here. Thanks to @RachelTobac for spreading the word! As of this episode, there are 58 scholarships available! Jen mentioned @pinkflawd’s tweet about ELF binaries. Have comments or suggestions for us?
