This new version combines enhanced support for a bunch of processors, Mach-O file improvements, some signature boosts, standard plugin updates, and a shiny new set of UI refinements that will make your analysis much more productive and convenient.
Here is a brief overview of what awaits you in IDA 8.4:
- Unified type storage (ASMTIL)
- Support for common Apple-specific instructions and system registers commonly encountered in iOS and macOS software
- ARMv8.6-A support
- ARMv8-M support
- The Mach-O loader now offers fine-grained control over the selection of dyld shared cache modules and their dependencies
- The ARM32 decompiler supports hard-float ABI
- Debugger improvements
- Fresher icons, crisper look when zoom-in, and a crosshair effect in the minigraph view
- and that’s not all…
