Radare2 - UNIX-like Reverse Engineering Framework And Command-Line Toolset

r2 is a rewrite from scratch of radare. It provies a set of libraries, tools and plugins to ease reverse engineering tasks.

The radare project started as a simple command-line hexadecimal editor focused on forensics, over time more features were added to support a scriptable command-line low level tool to edit from local hard drives, kernel memory, programs, remote gdb servers and be able to analyze, emulate, debug, modify and disassemble any binary.

Install r2 from Git (Clone the repo and run sys/install.sh) or use pip install r2env Read the Official radare2 book COMMUNITY.md engagement CONTRIBUTING.md general rules DEVELOPERS.md to improve r2 for your needs SECURITY.md on vulnerability report instructions USAGE.md for an introductory session INSTALL.md instructions
