Yagi

Yet Another Ghidra Integration for IDA

Overview

Yagi intends to include the wonderful Ghidra decompiler into both IDA pro and IDA Free.

Example of Yagi

📦 You can download installers for Windows and Linux versions here, then press F3 and enjoy! 📦

Here is the list of architectures that Yagi can decompile at the moment:

Arch Names Yagi
x86 ✔️
x86_64 ✔️
arm ✔️
aarch64(armv8) ✔️
powerpc ✔️
mips ✔️
sparc ✔️
avr8 ✔️
6502 ✔️
z80 ✔️
eBPF 🐝✔️🐝
cp1600
cr16
dalvik
jvm
tricore
riscv
System Z
xCore
68000

It's easy to add one if it's supported by Ghidra. Just open an issue, and we will do our best!

It allows you to edit the following items:

  • Global Symbol like function prototype, global variable, etc.
  • Local stack variables name and type
  • Local registry variables name and type
Key Interact

Build

As Yagi is built using git submodules to handle Ghidra dependencies, you will first need to do a recursive clone:

git clone https://github.com/airbus-cert/Yagi --recursive

For Windows

Install Dependencies

As Ghidra uses bison and flex to parse the sleigh grammar, we need first to install build dependencies from here

You also need the IDA SDK associated with your version of IDA.

Cmake

Yagi's build system is based on cmake; you can find an MSI package here.

You need at least a Visual Studio compiler with C++ toolchain.

Production

To generate a Wix installer, you need to install WiX before.

Then, let the cmake magic happen:

git clone https://github.com/airbus-cert/Yagi --recursive
mkdir build_yagi
cd build_yagi
cmake ..\Yagi -DIDA_SDK_SOURCE_DIR=[PATH_TO_IDA_SDK_ROOT_FOLDER] -DCPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY="IDA Pro 7.6"
cmake --build . --target package --config release

A new yagi-1.0.0-win64.msi will be generated. It will contain all the necessary dependencies to install the plugin.

Development

To create a dev environment you need to generate the Visual Studio solution:

git clone https://github.com/airbus-cert/Yagi --recursive
mkdir build_yagi
cd build_yagi
cmake ..\Yagi -DIDA_SDK_SOURCE_DIR=[PATH_TO_IDA_SDK_ROOT_FOLDER] -DBUILD_TESTS=ON

PATH_TO_IDA_SDK_ROOT_FOLDER represents the root path of the decompressed archive provided by Hex-Rays.

To launch unit tests, just use ctest installed with cmake:

cd tests
ctest -VV

For Linux

Install Dependencies

As Ghidra uses bison and flex to parse the sleigh grammar and Yagi is built using Cmake and C++, you will need the following:

apt install cmake c++ git flex bison yacc

Production

To generate an installer script:

git clone https://github.com/airbus-cert/Yagi --recursive
mkdir build_yagi
cd build_yagi
cmake ../Yagi -DIDA_SDK_SOURCE_DIR=[PATH_TO_IDA_SDK_ROOT_FOLDER]
cmake --build . --target package --config release

This will produce a yagi-1.0.0-Linux.sh script. Then you just have to launch it:

./yagi-1.0.0-Linux.sh --prefix=[PATH_TO_IDA_INSTALL_FOLDER]
y
n

Enjoy!

Development

To generate a dev environment you need to generate the Makefile:

git clone https://github.com/airbus-cert/Yagi --recursive
mkdir build_yagi
cd build_yagi
cmake ../Yagi -DIDA_SDK_SOURCE_DIR=[PATH_TO_IDA_SDK_ROOT_FOLDER] -DBUILD_TESTS=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
make

To launch unit tests, just use ctest installed with cmake:

cd tests
ctest -VV

TODO

  • Handle enum types
  • Add rules to handle end function computation on AARCH64
  • Change constant type (key H, R)
