After mentioning about the release of the tool,NSA today finally released the complete source code for GHIDRA, at the RSA conference. The GHIDRA version 9.0.2 source tree is now available on its Github repository. It is a Java-based reverse engineering framework that features a graphical user interface (GUI) and runs on various platforms including Windows, MacOSX, and Linux.
The tool is ideal for software engineers, but will be especially useful for malware and security analysts first and foremost. GHIDRA is the NSA's home-grown classified software reverse engineering tool that agency experts have been using internally for over a decade to hunt down security bugs in software and applications.
The existence of GHIDRA was first publicly revealed by WikiLeaks in CIA Vault 7 leaks, and subsequently the agency promised to release the tool. Today the tool was publicly released at the RSA conference. The tool might fill the gap between basic HEX tools and expensive commercial reverse engineering tools like IDA-Pro.
