FLOSS for Gophers and Crabs: Extracting Strings from Go and Rust Executables

The evolving landscape of software development has introduced new programming languages like Go and Rust. Binaries compiled from these languages work differently to classic (C/C++) programs and challenge many conventional analysis tools. To support the static analysis of Go and Rust executables, FLOSS now extracts program strings using enhanced algorithms. Where traditional extraction algorithms provide compound and confusing string output FLOSS recovers the individual Go and Rust strings as they are used in a program.
