IDA

About

IDA is a powerful coordination and automation framework for IDA Pro, enabling users to interact with and manage multiple IDA instances simultaneously. It establishes a central coordinator to register and maintain a registry of running instances, providing a unified access point through a process-based proxy. This facilitates automated analysis, database manipulation, and debugging of binaries across various IDA databases, significantly enhancing productivity for complex reverse engineering workflows and multi-file analysis scenarios.

Key Features

• Multi-instance coordination and automatic registration
• Programmatic control over IDA Pro operations
• Integrated debugging automation functionalities (e.g., register access, call stack, breakpoint management)
• Comprehensive reverse engineering automation tools (e.g., function/symbol/string listing, decompilation, renaming)
• Centralized proxy for unified access and aggregation of instances
• 4 GitHub stars

Use Cases

• Automating analysis and modification of multiple binary files simultaneously
• Orchestrating complex reverse engineering tasks across several IDA Pro environments
• Programmatic interaction with IDA Pro for scripting analysis and debugging workflows
