Open Source Python Debuggers

A disassembler for the linux platform. Currently this supports x86 ELF files assumed to be written in C and output to intel- syntax assembly language; however the design is modular and replacements for any of these can be written.

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.

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.

A regex tool -- A Python GUI for creating, testing and debugging regular expressions for the Python programming language. Kodos utilizes the pyqt library for it's interface. Screenshots available on project homepage.

This is a port of the GNU C Compiler (GCC) and GNU Binutils (as, ld) for the embedded processor MSP430. Tools for debugging and download are provided (GDB, JTAG and BSL) Obsolete. See http://www.ti.com/tool/msp430-gcc-opensource or upstream GNU tools.

httpdbg is a tool for Python developers to easily debug the HTTP(S) client requests in a Python program.

ChatDBG is an AI-assisted debugging tool that integrates large language models into standard debuggers like pdb, lldb, and gdb. It allows developers to engage in a dialog with the debugger, asking open-ended questions about their program's behavior, and provides error diagnoses and suggested fixes.

GEF is a set of commands for x86/64, ARM, MIPS, PowerPC and SPARC to assist exploit developers and reverse-engineers when using old-school GDB. It provides additional features to GDB using the Python API to assist during the process of dynamic analysis and exploit development. Application developers will also benefit from it, as GEF lifts a great part of regular GDB obscurity, avoiding repeating traditional commands or bringing out the relevant information from the debugging runtime.

A RAD GUI Building IDE for wxPython.

Automatic Video Library Manager for TV shows. It watches for new episodes of your favorite shows, and when they are posted it does its magic. Select the show you want to grab, add it, and let SickChill handle the rest. See what SickChill holds in store for you. SickChill has a nice calendar that allows you to know what you will see next. It watches for new episodes of your favorite shows, and when they are posted it does its magic: automatic torrent/nzb searching, downloading, and processing at the qualities you want.

The Virtual USB Analyzer is a graphical tool for browsing traces of captured USB data. It supports logs generated by Ellisys hardware analyzers and VMware's software analyzer, and Linux's usbmon.

Python framework to analyze Linux crash dumps programmatically from 'crash' and tools written using it. Documentation (a work in progress!) is available at: https://pykdump.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Unfortunately this project has been suspended. If you wish to continue its development on your own, please feel free to contact me. UnPyc is a tool for disassembling, analyzing and decompiling Python's *.pyc and *.pyo files. UnPyc supports Python 2.5, 2.6.

Cinemagoer is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies. Platform-independent, it can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local copy of the whole db.

Winpdb is a platform independent GPL Python debugger with support for multiple threads, namespace modification, embedded debugging, encrypted communication and is up to 20 times faster than pdb.

Clint is a testbed for static source-code checking techniques. It is currently designed to check C++ for common programmer errors and suggest improvements.

PotatoFinder is a Windows Incident Correlation Engine developed by PotatoChimp Labs. It helps users investigate crashes, system instability, and unexpected behavior by reconstructing timelines of events and identifying likely root causes. PotatoFinder continuously monitors important system activity such as software installations, Windows Updates, process crashes, driver changes, service modifications, and other system events. The built-in Investigation Engine correlates events around an incident, calculates confidence scores, generates evidence for and against each possible cause, and reconstructs what changed before things broke. Historical fingerprinting allows similar incidents to be compared over time, helping users recognize recurring problems and successful fixes. Features include: • Timeline Reconstruction • Incident Correlation Engine • Historical Fingerprinting • Root Cause Analysis • Anomaly Detection • Exportable Reports • Dark Theme GUI with System Tray usage.

File-Spector is a small, fast and easy to use binary file analyzer and Inspector. It allows the users to format a complete binary file structure and then use it to read any binary file that matches the specified format.

PyChecker is a static analysis tool for finding bugs in Python source code. It finds problems that are typically caught by a compiler for less dynamic languages, like C and C++. It is similar to lint.

SPE is a python IDE with auto indentation&completion,call tips,syntax coloring&highlighting,uml viewer,class explorer,source index,todo list,pycrust shell,file browsers,drag&drop,Blender support.Spe ships with wxGlade,PyChecker and Kiki.

Another Debugger for Python was written in Python3 using PySimpleGui and has a window showing your script and some buttons and another window showing variables and their values. The buttons entirely control ADP, they are accompanied by help buttons. ADP stores details of the path taken by your script and variables and their values in a SQLITE3 database. The current release supports LIVE running. A future release will support DEAD running. In DEAD runs you’ll be able to replay a LIVE run from the database recording, which means that you can start at any point and travel in either direction and the value of the variables will be those that were current at that point of time in the LIVE run. Imagine your script crashed and you can replay from there backwards, and see how you got there and the values the variables had. Extra functionality will allow running queries forwards and backwards.

99eyeballs is a tool that helps developers using Mac OS X Apple’s Cocoa frameworks find inconsistencies in the retain count of Objective-C cocoa objects.

It is a Process Monitoring Toolkit with the ability of Extend. E.g. You can use it to monitor a specified process. And set a triger like (over 50MB mem use) then do something like (report to DB).

Dionea (Dionea Musclipla, meaning Venus Fly Catcher)- an asynchronous thread-aware, peer-aware, and session-aware distributed debugger for Ruby and Python. A notable feature is to trace the sessions of the web applicaions using Rails and TurboGears.

Chisel is a collection of LLDB commands designed to assist you in the process of debugging iOS apps. All of the commands provided by Chisel come with verbose help. Be sure to read it when in doubt! You can add local, custom commands. There's also builtin support to make it super easy to specify the arguments and options that a command takes. See the border and pinvocation commands for example use. Developing commands, whether for local use or contributing to Chisel directly, both follow the same workflow. You can also inspect a specific command by passing its name as an argument to the help command (as with all other LLDB commands). There are many commands with compatibility with iOS/Mac. For a comprehensive overview of LLDB, and how Chisel complements it, read Ari Grant's Dancing in the Debugger, A Waltz with LLDB in issue 19 of objc.io.
