ODA stands for Online DisAssembler. ODA is a general purpose machine code disassembler that supports a myriad of machine architectures. Built on the shoulders of libbfd and libopcodes (part of binutils), ODA allows you to explore an executable by dissecting its sections, strings, symbols, raw hex, and machine level instructions. You can use it for a variety of purposes such as: Visualizing the control flow of a group of instructions Disassembling a few bytes of an exception handler that is going off into the weeds Reversing the first few bytes of a Master Boot Record (MBR) that may be corrupt Debugging an embedded systems device driver Malware analysis Vulnerability research Developing a jailbreak for the latest iPhone Satisying your own intellectual curiosity (Does there exist some sequence of bytes that disassembles to the same logical operation for two separate platforms?) ODA is limited by the resource constraints of the server on which it is hosted and the spare time of its creators. If you find ODA useful, have a feature request, or want to comment in any way, please drop us a line!
