To be clear, it is still a plugin for a ~$5000 application. Nonetheless, thanks Google for lowering the bar for entry into professional security work!

#32Why is the linked site served over http? http://www.zynamics.com/software.html Changing to https reveals a security cert valid for *.google.com, but not for www.zynamics.com.

Re: BinDiff now available for free
#34Shameless plug: Several years ago I did a tool that shows differences between disassembled functions basic-block graphs, that you can use for free and it is GPLv2 licensed. I believe my tool shows the differences in a better way than bindiff, and it piggybacks on a disassembler made by a former coworker and friend. Maybe someone wants to use it. http://www.coresecurity.com/corelabs-research/open-source-to... PS: I do…

Re: BinDiff now available for free
#35This would have been news worthy 10 years ago. Today, it's more like shrug who cares. Dependency on IDA, closed source, limited platform support, Java/Swing ... Far better free solutions out there.
- BinDiff would work stand-alone if someone wrote an exporter for another disassembler (BinDiff uses https://github.com/google/binexport for that).
- Closed source - yeah it contains some secret sauce and also depends on a commercial graph library (yFiles). Not easily replaced. Their product is also pretty good.
- Limited platform support - well, there is an older OS X version as well and we have this on our radar for future releases.
- Far better free solutions - please do show. Maybe we can do a diff-off some time :)
YOLO :P
