Ida Sigmaker

Signature Maker Plugin for IDA Pro 9.0+

[](https://github.com/mahmoudimus/ida-sigmaker/actions/workflows/python.yml) [](https://codecov.io/gh/mahmoudimus/ida-sigmaker)

An IDA Pro 9.0+ zero-dependency cross-platform signature maker plugin with optional SIMD (e.g. AVX2/NEON/SSE2) speedups that works on macOS, Linux, and Windows. SigMaker includes processor-aware operand wildcarding for x86, x64, ARM, and MIPS binaries. The primary goal of this plugin is to work with future versions of IDA without needing to compile against the IDA SDK, while allowing easier community contributions.

Background reading on [mahmoudimus.com](https://mahmoudimus.com):

• IDA Pro and Cython: super-charging the work-horse of reverse engineering: how the optional SIMD speedups were built.
• Growing a unique function signature without rescanning the binary: the search algorithm, with interactive visualizations.
• How do you know your Cython hot loop is fast enough?: how I confirmed those kernels are already optimal (memory-bound, not compute-bound).
