6.0 Release 2

By Jordan Wiens

Caped Binja flying over the city. >

We’re back with a small R2 update for those who only use our stable branch. This R2 improves on our Krypton 6.0 release with crash fixes, hardening of the PE and ELF loaders, Linux compatibility improvements, as well as bug-fixes for the MSP430 architecture, DWARF, Mach-O, Ghidra Export, and the debugger.

As always, customers with active support on the development branch have access to these changes and more.

Core/Analysis

  • Fix: Analysis getting stuck with endlessly increasing progress during phase 1 when processing RTTI (#8017)
  • Fix: Crash in the GNU3 demangler on names containing non-ASCII characters, which could occur when loading kernel caches (#8582)

File Formats

  • Fix: Harden PE loader against malformed files
  • Fix: Reject out-of-bounds ELF sections and header tables
  • Fix: Skip malformed ELF section metadata instead of rejecting the entire file
  • Fix: Multiple privately reported crashes when loading malformed files
  • Fix: arm64e.x1 and other new Mach-O slice variants being mislabeled as arm64 (#8571)

Architectures

  • Fix: MSP430 sub lifting operands in reverse order (#8503)
  • Fix: MSP430 conditional jumps emitting a spurious jump (#8516)
  • Fix: MSP430 byte operations sign-extending into registers instead of zero-extending (#8517)

DWARF

  • Fix: DWARF import not loading all types (#8552)

Ghidra Export

  • Fix: Exporting functions with typedef return types fixed
  • Fix: Certain user types not being included when exporting to Ghidra (#8449)

Debugger

  • Fix: Crash when recording a TTD trace by attaching to or launching a process in Binary Ninja Free (#796)
  • Fix: Crash when shutting down a Corellium session before the connection was established (#1197)

UI/UX

  • Fix: “Reset window layout” always crashing (#8527)

Platform Support

  • Fix: Startup failures on Ubuntu 26.04 due to missing libopengl0/libxcb; Qt now uses libGL on Linux

Documentation
