Browser-based GDB frontend: gdbGUI
From the post:
A modern, browser-based frontend to gdb (gnu debugger). Add breakpoints, view stack traces, and more in C, C++, Go, and Rust! Simply run
gdbguifrom the terminal and a new tab will open in your browser.Features:
- Debug a different program in each tab (new gdb instance is spawned for each tab)
- Set/remove breakpoints
- View stack, threads
- Switch frame on stack, switch between threads
- Intuitively explore local variables when paused
- Hover over variables in source code to view contents
- Evaluate arbitrary expressions and plot their values over time
- Explore an interactive tree view of your data structures
- Jump back into the program’s state to continue debug unexpected faults (i.e. SEGFAULT)
- Inspect memory in hex/character form
- View all registers
- Dropdown of files used to compile binary, with autocomplete functionality
- Source code explorer with ability to jump to line
- Show assembly next to source code, highlighting current instruction. Can also step through instructions.
- Assembly is displayed if source code cannot be found
- Notifications when new gdbgui updates are available

While cybersecurity is always relative, the more skills you have, the more secure you can be relative to other users. Or, as Thomas Hobbes observed in De Cive, revised edition, printed in 1760 at Amsterdam, bellum omnium contra omnes, “the war of all against all.” (The quote is found on pages 25-26 of this edition. The following image is from the revised edition, 1647.)
Look to your own security. It is always less valuable to others.
