Interface easily GDB-GEF with Binary Ninja

gef-binja is a plugin that is the server-side of the XML-RPC defined for gef for BinaryNinja. It will spawn a threaded XMLRPC server from your current BN session making it possible for gef to interact with Binary Ninja.

In Binary Ninja, press Ctrl-Shift-M to open the Plugin Manager. Then search for GEF-Binja and install it.

$ git clone https://github.com/hugsy/gef-binja/ "~/.binaryninja/plugins/gef-binja"

PS :\> git clone https://github.com/hugsy/gef-binja  "$Env:APPDATA\Binary Ninja\plugins\gef-binja"

Untested but should work

$ git clone https://github.com/hugsy/gef-binja/ "~/Library/Application Support/Binary Ninja/plugins/gef-binja"

If you don't have gef on the host where your GDB is running, the quickest way to install it is by running the following command from a shell prompt:

wget -q -O- https://github.com/hugsy/gef/raw/master/scripts/gef.sh | sh

In GDB, configure gef to connect to Binary Ninja:

gef➤  gef config ida-interact

Note: the config option is called ida-interact because GEF uses the same protocol for both communication with Binja and IDA.

This plugin requires the following minimum version of Binary Ninja:

• 1300

The following dependencies are required for this plugin:

• apt - gdb 7.7+ (or gdb-multiarch) with Python3 support
• other - https://github.com/hugsy/gef (easy install)

This plugin is released under a MIT license.
