Upgrade to release 1.0.0:
- Add Android JNI Analyzer
- The DWARF import plugin now supports comments
- Add support for generating DWARF from firmware or binaries
without a precise format or architecture
- Add support for accessing the bit size of bit-field declarations
- Add support for accessing Enum entries:
lief.dwarf.types.Enum.entries()
- Add support for reading from or assigning a register to a function
parameter
- Add support for reading from or assigning a description
(DW_AT_description) to a lief.dwarf.Function, lief.dwarf.Variable,
or lief.dwarf.LexicalBlock:
lief.dwarf.Function.description()
lief.dwarf.Variable.description()
lief.dwarf.LexicalBlock.description()
- Enable the creation of nested lief.dwarf.editor.Function.LexicalBlock
- Add support for generating a C/C++ definition for a whole
lief.dwarf.CompilationUnit ( lief.dwarf.CompilationUnit.to_decl()).
The output of the following to_decl() functions can now be
configured through the new lief.DeclOpt structure:
lief.dwarf.Function.to_decl()
lief.dwarf.Variable.to_decl()
lief.dwarf.Type.to_decl()
lief.dwarf.CompilationUnit.to_decl()
- Improve support and the API for LF_ENUM: lief.pdb.types.Enum
- Improve support and the API for LF_PROCEDURE: lief.pdb.types.Function
- Improve support and the API for LF_ARRAY: lief.pdb.types.Array
- Improve support and the API for simple types: lief.pdb.types.Simple
- Improve support and the API for LF_ONEMETHOD: lief.pdb.types.Method
- Add support for generating a C/C++ definition for a lief.pdb.Function
( lief.pdb.Function.to_decl()) and a lief.pdb.CompilationUnit
( lief.pdb.CompilationUnit.to_decl()), configurable with the new
lief.DeclOpt structure.
- Add support for DT_AUXILIARY tag: lief.ELF.DynamicEntryAuxiliary
- Add support for DT_FILTER tag: lief.ELF.DynamicEntryFilter
- Add lief.ELF.parse_from_dump() to parse an ELF binary from a
memory dump
- Add lief.COFF.Section.coff_string for accessing the full section
name when this name does not fit in 8 bytes.
- Add support for writing big-endian Mach-O binaries
- Introduce an API for selecting a specific Mach-O binary by
architecture from a FAT binary
- Add lief.MachO.FatBinary.create() to create a FAT binary from a
list of lief.MachO.Binary objects targeting different architectures
- Add support for lief.MachO.ThreadLocalVariables
- Fix an extra byte being written after the thread state of an
LC_UNIXTHREAD/LC_THREAD command, which shifted the following load
commands by one byte
- Add support for editing the runtime tables of the
LC_FUNCTION_VARIANTS command and committing the changes on write:
lief.MachO.FunctionVariants
- Add a structured parser, editing API and writer for the
LC_FUNCTION_VARIANT_FIXUPS command:
lief.MachO.FunctionVariantFixups
- Add support for the LC_LAZY_LOAD_DYLIB_INFO command:
lief.MachO.LazyLoadDylibInfo
- Add lief.MachO.parse_from_dump() to parse a Mach-O binary from a
memory dump
- Add setters for lief.PE.ImportEntry.iat_value and
lief.PE.ImportEntry.ilt_value
- Add lief.PE.Binary.offset_to_rva() to convert a raw offset into a RVA
- Add lief.PE.parse_from_dump() to parse a PE binary from a memory dump
- Update lief.Binary.offset_to_virtual_address() for PE binaries
to return an absolute virtual address instead of a RVA
- Add support for adding an lief.PE.Import at a specific position:
lief.PE.Binary.add_import()
- Improve support for EFI binaries, such as bzImage
- Add support for Objective-C categories: lief.ObjC.Category,
accessible through lief.ObjC.Metadata.categories
- Add support for iterating over the operands of MIPS, PowerPC,
eBPF and RISC-V instructions (Register, Immediate, Memory and
PCRelative):
lief.assembly.mips.Instruction.operands()
lief.assembly.powerpc.Instruction.operands()
lief.assembly.ebpf.Instruction.operands()
lief.assembly.riscv.Instruction.operands()
- The Rust FFI no longer relies on autocxx and bindgen. It is now
built on top of plain cxx, which simplifies the bindings and
reduces the iteration time
- The Rust bindings directory has been renamed from api/rust/cargo/
to api/rust/crates/
- Add support for the aarch64-linux-android and x86_64-linux-android
targets
- Add LIEF_LIFETIMEBOUND annotations wrapping [[clang::lifetimebound]]
to leverage Clang's lifetime analysis. This helps detect dangling
references at compile time for methods that return references or
iterators tied to an object's lifetime
