QBinDiff: A modular diffing toolkit

Introduction

Binary diffing is a specific reverse-engineering task aiming at comparing two binary
files that are usually executables. The ultimate refinement of disassembly, baring decompilation, is usually
the recovery of functions with bounds along with the associated call graph. As functions represent the different
functionalities contained in a binary, they are usually used as the base artifact for
diffing. The goal of differs is to compute a mapping between functions of a first binary
called …
