Decompiler Applications¶

Across the internet, there are many ways people have used decompilers in the wild. In this section, you can find a collection of some of those use cases.

As an example, some decompilation uses include:

• Program Reversing: used to understand how a program works and how to interact with it.
• Program Reconstruction: used to completely (or partially) recompile the targetted binary
• Automated Program Repair: used for patching faulty programs
• Manual & Automated Vuln Discovery: used for finding vulnerabilities
