An IDA Pro plugin written in Python that parses Golang binaries, recovering function names, source file paths, strings, types, and interface tables. It is designed to aid reverse engineers, especially malware analysts, working with Go-compiled executables.

Use cases

• recover function names from stripped Go binaries in IDA Pro
• parse pclntab to restore source file paths in a Go malware sample
• annotate Go type structures and strings while reverse engineering
• analyze Go binaries with malformed section headers
• reverse engineer Go binaries built with buildmode=pie

When to choose

• you analyze Go-compiled binaries in IDA Pro and need symbol and type recovery
• you are a malware researcher dealing with Go-based threats
• the binary has corrupted headers that break standard tooling

When to avoid

• you use a disassembler other than IDA Pro
• you need automated static analysis outside an interactive RE workflow
• you work with Python 2, as the py2 branch is unmaintained
