  • Pleasant Debugging with GDB and DDD
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 16 Nov 2024
    It's written for exploit development, but even for debugging a C program. It makes things a lot nicer.

    By far the best debugger for C is gdb+pwndbg (https://github.com/pwndbg/pwndbg)

    There are a lot of these types of tools already in the reverse engineering community (in order of lowest chance of breaking when you throw really weird stuff at it):

    GEF: https://gef.readthedocs.io/en/master/

    PWNDBG: https://github.com/pwndbg/pwndbg

    PEDA: https://github.com/longld/peda

    They also come with a slew of different features to aid in RE/exploit dev, but many of them are also useful for debugging really weird issues.

  • Debugging with GDB
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Mar 2022
    GDB is great. I definitely recommend checking out watchpoints as well, a very useful tool for monitoring how a variable changes over time.

    GDB also has many good plugins - pwndbg has tons of features and UI improvements over stock GDB.

  • Making GDB Easier: The TUI Interface
    1 project | dev.to | 30 Jan 2022
    I've recently started a new semester for my Master's program, and the first project for the semester involves using the GDB tool (GNU Debugger) to analyze a stack on a simple C program that contains a buffer overflow vulnerability. A couple of semesters ago, I had been given a VM pre-loaded with a more featured debugger tool called pwndbg. Pwndbg was excellent because it was easy to use and easily allowed accessed to information such as current assembly code being executed and a view of the program registers. So, going back to using GDB felt a little like stepping back into the stone age.
