git-bug
Distributed, offline-first bug tracker embedded in git, with bridges
git-bug is fully embedded in git, you only need your git repository to have a bug tracker. git-bug is distributed. Use your normal git remote to collaborate, push and pull your bugs! git-bug works offline, in a plane or under the sea? Keep reading and writing bugs! It prevents vendor lock-in: your usual service is down or went bad? You already have a full backup. It is fast, listing bugs or opening them is a matter of milliseconds. git-bug doesn't pollute your project, no files are added in your project. git-bug integrates with your tooling, use the UI you like (CLI, terminal, web) or integrate with your existing tools through the CLI or the GraphQL API. git-bug bridges to other bug trackers. Use bridges to import and export to other trackers. An interactive terminal UI is available using the command git bug termui to browse and edit bugs. -

RenderDoc
RenderDoc is a stand-alone graphics debugging tool
RenderDoc is a free MIT licensed stand-alone graphics debugger that allows quick and easy single-frame capture and detailed introspection of any application using Vulkan, D3D11, OpenGL & OpenGL ES or D3D12 across Windows 7 - 10, Linux, Android, Stadia, or Nintendo Switch™. I work on RenderDoc myself and you can always contact me with any problems or comments. I'll respond to you directly and personally, and I'm used to helping people with private or NDA'd projects. RenderDoc is 100% open source and development all happens on github. Check out the source and see how any feature is implemented, report a bug you've found, or request a new feature or improvement. Usability matters. Tools should have a low barrier to entry and be easy to use and understand. RenderDoc makes the process of getting started as smooth as possible, and simplifies common workflows. Support is distributed separately for authorized developers as part of the NintendoSDK. -

Sysdig
Linux system exploration and troubleshooting tool
Continuously assess cloud security posture by flagging misconfigurations and suspicious activity. Consolidate container and host scanning in a single workflow. Automate scanning locally in your CI/CD tools without images leaving your environment and block vulnerabilities pre-deployment. Visualize all network communication across apps and services. Apply microsegmentation by automating Kubernetes-native network policies. Unify threat detection and incident response across containers, Kubernetes, and cloud with out-of-the-box Falco rules leveraging syscalls, Kubernetes audit logs and cloud logs. Gain deep insight with container and Kubernetes monitoring that is fully Prometheus compatible. Validate compliance against standards like PCI, NIST and SOC2 for containers, hosts, Kubernetes and cloud.

SpoofMAC
Change your MAC address for debugging
SpoofMAC is a command-line utility for changing and restoring MAC addresses on network interfaces in Linux and macOS systems. The project allows users to randomize or manually configure MAC addresses to improve privacy, testing flexibility, or network anonymity in various environments. It automates low-level networking commands and provides a user-friendly interface for managing interface states and address changes safely. SpoofMAC is commonly used for privacy protection on public networks, penetration testing workflows, and network simulation environments where MAC address manipulation is required. The tool also supports restoring the original hardware MAC address and handling multiple network interfaces efficiently. Its lightweight design and straightforward command-line usage make it popular among system administrators, developers, and security researchers. -

pwndbg
Exploit Development and Reverse Engineering with GDB Made Easy
Pwndbg is a fast, simple and lightweight tool for modern debugging. It improves debugging experience with the strength of GDB for low-level software developers, hardware hackers, reverse engineers, and exploit developers. It provides features crucial for efficient debugging in the world of low-level programming. Vanilla GDB is terrible to use for reverse engineering and exploit development. Typing x/g30x $esp is not fun, and does not confer much information. The year is 2024 and GDB still lacks a real hexdump command! GDB's syntax is arcane and difficult to approach. Windbg users are completely lost when they occasionally need to bump into GDB. -
