# Binary Reverse Engineering

## Purpose

Comprehensive guide for binary reverse engineering. This skill provides the overall methodology, philosophy, and reference material. Related skills handle specific phases:

## Related Skills

| Skill | Purpose | Trigger Keywords |
|-------|---------|------------------|
| `binary-re:triage` | Fast fingerprinting | "what is this binary", "identify", "file type" |
| `binary-re:static-analysis` | r2 + Ghidra analysis | "disassemble", "decompile", "functions" |
| `binary-re:dynamic-analysis` | QEMU + GDB + Frida | "run", "execute", "debug", "trace" |
| `binary-re:synthesis` | Report generation | "summarize", "report", "document findings" |
| `binary-re:tool-setup` | Install tools | "install", "setup", "tool not found" |

**Note:** Each skill auto-detects based on keywords. You don't need to explicitly route - just ask what you need.

## Pre-Flight Verification

**Before beginning any analysis, verify tooling availability:**

### Core Tools (Required)
```bash
rabin2 -v  # Should show version
r2 -v      # Should show version
```

### Decompilation (Optional)
```bash
# Check r2ghidra availability
r2 -qc 'pdg?' - 2>/dev/null | grep -q Usage && echo "r2ghidra OK" || echo "r2ghidra missing - install with: r2pm -ci r2ghidra"
```

### Dynamic Analysis Platform Check
| Host Platform | Method | Setup Required |
|---------------|--------|----------------|
| Linux x86_64 | Native QEMU | `apt install qemu-user` |
| macOS (any) | Docker + binfmt | See `binary-re-tool-setup` skill |
| Windows | WSL2 | Use Linux method inside WSL |

**If dynamic tools unavailable:** Proceed with static-only analysis, note reduced confidence in synthesis phase.

### Fallback Tooling (No r2/Ghidra)

When radare2 or Ghidra aren't available, use standard binutils/LLVM tools:

```bash
# Metadata (replaces rabin2 -I)
readelf -h binary              # ELF header
readelf -d binary              # Dynamic section (dependencies)
file binary                    # Quick identification

# Imports/Exports (replaces rabin2 -i/-E)
readelf -Ws binary | grep -E "FUNC|OBJECT" | awk '{print $8}'
nm -D binary 2>/dev/null       # Dynamic symbols

# Strings (replaces rabin2 -zz)
strings -a -n 8 binary | grep -Ei 'http|ftp|/etc|/var|error|pass|key|token|api'

# Disassembly (replaces r2 pdf)
objdump -d -M intel binary | head -500
# Or LLVM (better cross-arch support):
llvm-objdump -d --no-show-raw-insn binary | head -500

# Dependencies (replaces rabin2 -l)
ldd binary 2>/dev/null || readelf -d binary | grep NEEDED
```

**Limitations of fallback approach:**
- No cross-references (axt/axf) - must trace manually
- No decompilation - assembly only
- No function boundary detection - raw disassembly
- Reduced accuracy for stripped binaries

---

## Philosophy

**The LLM drives analysis; the human provides context.**

Human provides:
- Platform info (device type, OS, hardware)
- Suspected purpose (what the binary might do)
- Constraints (no network, isolated env, etc.)

LLM executes:
- Tool selection and invocation
- Hypothesis formation from evidence
- Experiment design
- Knowledge synthesis

## The Agentic Loop

└─────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```

### Step 0: Compare Known I/O First (CRITICAL)

**Before diving into code analysis, always check if known inputs/outputs exist.**

This step prevents hours of wasted analysis by establishing ground truth first.

⚠️ **REQUIRES HUMAN APPROVAL** - Even for I/O comparison, get explicit approval before execution.

```bash
# SAFE: Use emulation for cross-arch binaries (after human approval)
# ARM32 example:
qemu-arm -L /usr/arm-linux-gnueabihf -- ./binary input.txt > actual_output.txt

# x86-64 native (still requires approval):
./binary input.txt > actual_output.txt

# Docker-based (macOS - safest option):
docker run --rm --platform linux/arm/v7 -v ~/samples:/work:ro \
  arm32v7/debian:bullseye-slim /work/binary /work/input.txt > actual_output.txt

# Compare outputs:
diff expected_output.txt actual_output.txt
cmp -l expected_output.txt actual_output.txt | head -20  # Byte-level

# Document the delta:
# - Where does output first diverge?
# - What pattern appears in the corruption?
# - Does file size match (logic bug) or differ (truncation)?
```

**Record as FACT:**
```
FACT: Output differs at byte {N}, expected "{X}" got "{Y}" (source: diff/cmp)
FACT: File sizes match/differ by {N} bytes (source: ls -l)
```

This single step often reveals the bug category before any disassembly.

## Knowledge Model

Throughout analysis, maintain structured knowledge via **episodic memory**:

```
FACTS: Verified observations with tool attribution
HYPOTHESES: Theories with confidence and evidence
QUESTIONS: Open unknowns blocking progress
EXPERIMENTS: Planned tool invocations
OBSERVATIONS: Results from experiments
DECISIONS: Human-approved choices with rationale
```

### Episodic Memory Integration

Knowledge persists across sessions via episodic memory. Use consistent tagging:

```
[BINARY-RE:{phase}] {artifact_name} (sha256: {hash})
FACT: {observation} (source: {tool})
HYPOTHESIS: {theory} (confidence: {0.0-1.0})
QUESTION: {unknown}
DECISION: {choice} (rationale: {why})
```

**Starting analysis:** Search episodic memory for artifact hash first
**After each phase:** Findings are automatically captured in conversation
**Resuming:** Search `[BINARY-RE] {artifact_name}` to restore context

## Human-in-the-Loop Triggers

**ALWAYS ask human before:**

1. **Executing the binary** - Even under QEMU, confirm sandbox
2. **Network operations** - Prevent unintended phone-home
3. **Conflicting evidence** - Resolve contradictory findings
4. **Privileged operations** - Device access, root actions
5. **Major direction changes** - Significant analysis pivots

## Session Management

### Starting New Analysis

```
1. Compute artifact hash: sha256sum binary
2. Search episodic memory: "[BINARY-RE] sha256:{hash}"
3. If previous analysis found:
   → "Found previous analysis from {date}. Resume or start fresh?"
4. If resuming: Load facts/hypotheses, continue from last phase
5. If fresh: Begin with triage phase
```

### Resuming Interrupted Analysis

```
User: "Continue analyzing that thermostat binary"

Claude:
1. Invoke episodic-memory:search-conversations
   Query: "[BINARY-RE] thermostat"
2. Retrieve previous session findings
3. Summarize: "Last session identified ARM32/musl, found network
   functions. We were about to run dynamic analysis."
4. Continue from that phase
```

### Searching Past Analyses

```
User: "Have we analyzed any ARM binaries with hardcoded passwords?"

Claude:
1. Search: "[BINARY-RE] FACT: hardcoded" or "[BINARY-RE] ARM"
2. Return matching artifacts and findings
```

## Standard Analysis Flow

For typical unknown binary analysis:

```
1. Triage (binary-re-triage)
   └─ Architecture, ABI, dependencies, capabilities

2. Static Analysis (binary-re-static-analysis)
   └─ Functions, strings, xrefs, decompilation

3. Dynamic Analysis (binary-re-dynamic-analysis) - if safe
   └─ Syscalls, network, file access

4. Synthesis (binary-re-synthesis)
   └─ Structured report with evidence
```

## Quick Reference

### Essential Commands

```bash
# Fast triage
rabin2 -I binary              # Metadata
rabin2 -l binary              # Dependencies
rabin2 -zz binary             # Strings

# Static analysis
r2 -q -c 'aa; aflj' binary    # Functions
r2 -q -c 'izj' binary         # Strings

# Dynamic (ARM example)
qemu-arm -L /usr/arm-linux-gnueabihf -strace ./binary
```

### Architecture Detection

| Indicator | Architecture | QEMU Binary | Ghidra Processor |
|-----------|--------------|-------------|------------------|
| `e_machine=EM_386 (3)` | x86 32-bit | `qemu-i386` or Docker `--platform linux/i386` | `x86:LE:32:default` |
| `e_machine=EM_ARM (40)` | ARM 32-bit | `qemu-arm` or Docker `--platform linux/arm/v7` | `ARM:LE:32:v7` |
| `e_machine=EM_AARCH64 (183)` | ARM 64-bit | `qemu-aarch64` or Docker `--platform linux/arm64` | `AARCH64:LE:64:v8A` |
| `e_machine=EM_X86_64 (62)` | x86-64 | Native or Docker `--platform linux/amd64` | `x86:LE:64:default` |
| `e_machine=EM_MIPS (8)` | MIPS 32 LE | `qemu-mipsel` | `MIPS:LE:32:default` |
| `e_machine=EM_MIPS (8)` BE | MIPS 32 BE | `qemu-mips` | `MIPS:BE:32:default` |
| `e_machine=EM_RISCV (243)` | RISC-V 64 | `qemu-riscv64` | `RISCV:LE:64:RV64I` |
| `e_machine=EM_RISCV (243)` 32 | RISC-V 32 | `qemu-riscv32` | `RISCV:LE:32:RV32I` |

### Libc Detection

| Interpreter | Libc |
|-------------|------|
| `ld-linux-armhf.so.3` | glibc (ARM hard-float) |
| `ld-musl-arm.so.1` | musl |
| `ld-uClibc.so.0` | uClibc |

## Error Recovery

| Situation | Action |
|-----------|--------|
| Tool not found | Use `binary-re-tool-setup` skill |
| Wrong architecture | Re-run triage, verify file output |
| QEMU fails | Try Qiling, Unicorn, or on-device |
| Analysis timeout | Reduce scope, use `aa` not `aaa` |
| Conflicting evidence | Ask human, document both interpretations |
