Ghidra: Navigating and Annotating Binaries

Import a binary, navigate disassembly and decompiled code, rename variables, and add comments.

What is Ghidra?

Ghidra is a free, open-source reverse engineering tool developed by the NSA and released publicly in 2019. It supports disassembly, decompilation, scripting, and collaborative analysis across Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Loading a Binary

Opening a binary in Ghidra:

  1. Create a new project
  2. Import file (File → Import File)
  3. Auto-analysis runs — let it complete (recognizes functions, strings, data types)
  4. CodeBrowser opens showing disassembly and decompiler views
