About
The purpose of this project is to provide a cross platform library that can parse, modify and
abstract ELF, PE and MachO formats.
Main features:
- Parsing: LIEF can parse ELF, PE, MachO, OAT, DEX, VDEX, ART and provides an user-friendly API to access to format internals.
- Modify: LIEF enables to modify some parts of these formats
- Abstract: Three formats have common features like sections, symbols, entry point... LIEF factors them.
- API: LIEF can be used in C, C++, Python and Rust
LIEF Extended:
- DWARF/PDB Support
- Objective-C Metadata
- dyld shared cache

for section in elf.sections:
print(section.name, len(section.content))
pe = lief.PE.parse("cmd.exe")
for imp in pe.imports:
print(imp.name)
fat = lief.MachO.parse("/bin/dyld")
for macho in fat:
