Can it handle obfuscated or packed code?

While highly effective at identifying logic patterns in obfuscated code, heavily packed binaries may require manual unpacking before this skill can fully analyze the underlying instructions.

Can it automatically generate a flag?

It can identify the logic required to produce a flag and often derive the flag itself, but success depends on the complexity of the encryption or validation algorithm used in the challenge.

Is it useful for malware analysis?

Yes, though optimized for CTF challenges, the same static analysis and data flow tracing techniques are highly effective for general malware research and vulnerability discovery.

Does this skill support dynamic analysis or debugging?

This skill primarily focuses on static analysis via Ghidra. For dynamic analysis, it recommends a hybrid approach using external debuggers like GDB or x64dbg alongside its static findings.

Does this skill require Ghidra to be installed?

Yes, this skill relies on the ReVa MCP server, which acts as a bridge to Ghidra for performing deep binary analysis and decompilation.
