ROP Gadget
A tool to search for ROP gadgets in binary files to facilitate Return-Oriented Programming exploitation.
What is ROP Gadget?
ROPgadget is a Python-based tool that automates the discovery of ROP (Return-Oriented Programming) gadgets in binary executables. It scans files for sequences of instructions ending with a return or similar control-flow instruction, which are essential for building memory corruption exploits. The tool supports multiple binary formats and CPU architectures, making it a versatile asset in exploit development.
Security researchers, penetration testers, and exploit developers who need to analyze binaries for vulnerability research and exploit creation.
ROPgadget stands out for its broad architecture and format support, integration with the Capstone disassembler for accurate analysis, and features like ROP chain generation and bad byte filtering that streamline the exploit development process.
Overview
This tool lets you search your gadgets on your binaries to facilitate your ROP exploitation. ROPgadget supports ELF, PE and Mach-O format on x86, x64, ARM, ARM64, PowerPC, SPARC, MIPS, RISC-V 64, and RISC-V Compressed architectures.
