It's not abhorrent. It's quite common and the correct thing to do here. Them not disclosing doesn't make you safer. The people that want to abuse this could be actively exploiting …

They did not, in fact, botch anything. They notified the responsible party and followed a practice that is pretty much the accepted norm (and for good reason). How recursive should…

I doubt it will and I hope it doesn't. External security research happens for one of only a few reasons typically: 1) hobbyists who are learning or just like to do it for fun 2) bu…

You could try to make that case either way, but as has been pointed out by others all over this thread, the system we've landed on (90/+30) is industry standard after over two and …

I'm curious what you would consider better UX? We have actually been more inspired by Jetbrains lately than VS Code. Take that for what you will. We do try to pick simple sane defa…

IDEs have changed a lot in the last 50 years. Just like we shouldn't advocate for hand writing assembly for all code, we shouldn't be stuck using CLI tooling the same way. I share …

I don't know why people think this, you're not the first person I've heard it from either. First, I literally saw them do shots during a talk yesterday for some first-time presente…

Can I just say, thanks to the person who posted this for waiting until this week to do so. (Side note: I suspect it was due to the recent coverage from C++ Weekly which is a great …

Yes, lets! And before hacker summer camp when we're way way too busy! :-)

Binary Ninja likewise is empty and keeps up just fine as well. It's not a coincidence that the two commercial products that are funding it are both confident enough to put their st…

Yup, I'm aware of both of those, but none of those tools listed so far are intended for the IR to be for human-consumable unlike disassemblers and decompilers. You think disassembl…

That was indeed the logic. The two main commercial solutions included (Binary Ninja made by Vector 35, where I'm one of hte founders) and Hex-Rays both pay for all the hosting cost…

Comment #38521976
IRs aren't generally suited toward small snippets of examination by human when you're starting with a full binary. I would imagine something like that would only work well when don…

We know! Similarly, the GH repo is actually the Decompiler Explorer: https://github.com/decompiler-explorer/decompiler-explorer/

I do remember dogpile, but as one of the folks who named it, nope, that wasn't a conscious influence!

It's been on the dev builds enabled by default for several months now and no longer labelled beta, but we're in the middle of a release process right now so at some point soon this…

Binary Ninja can as well (sorry for the delay, been on vacation this week) though none of the tools will download and use PDBs that might be available via public servers or otherwi…

And both companies behind those licenses (hi, I'm one of them!) donated licenses to support this. That said, you're right. It's unlikely we'd ship our entire binaries plus code to …

This is actually why we chose _not_ to implement no-more-gotos for Binary Ninja's HLIL! Code is actually more readable with gotos in some situations and trying to force their elimi…

Nope, not when you ask them and they provide the license. This is being run with the permission of all the commercial products. In fact, we (Binary Ninja) and Hex-Rays (once I figu…

Nope, Ilfak gave us a license for it and as Binary Ninja devs we're using a legitimate licensed copy of Binary Ninja as well. All above board and we're hoping to add more commercia…
