try on your machine
The command "rabin2 -j -I ${path-to-binary}" is used to parse and extract information from a binary file.
Here is a breakdown of the components of the command:
- "rabin2" is the name of the command-line tool generally used for reverse engineering tasks and binary analysis.
- "-j" is an option that specifies the formatting of the output in JSON format.
- "-I" is another option that instructs rabin2 to display detailed information about the binary.
"${path-to-binary}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path to the binary file you want to analyze. This could be a local path or a path relative to the current directory.
When executed, this command will run rabin2 on the specified binary file and display comprehensive information about it in JSON format, which can be easily processed by other programs or scripts. This information typically includes characteristics like architecture, entry point, imports, exports, sections, symbols, and more.
