The AI industry is buzzing again with MCP(Model Context Protocol). I’d been putting off testing MCP for IDA Pro, but recently started applying it to real tasks. The result: MIND-BLOWING! 😱 ✅ What’s great: - It automates tedious, repetitive parts of malware analysis, saving a ton of time. - It can auto-generate reports, including actionable items like YARA rules, Sigma rules, KQL queries, MITRE ATT&CK mappings, even a python for decryption. - Well-known algorithms are analyzed with impressive ease. ⚠️ What to watch out for: - It heavily relies on Hex-Rays output, so the quality of the decompiled code matters. - If all functions aren’t fully analyzed, it may hallucinate or guess their purpose. - Actionable items often need human validation and fine-tuning.(Lots of FP) - The quality of results depends a lot on the prompts, crafting good ones is key. In short, MCP can dramatically cut down malware analysis time, depending on the target, but human review is still essential. The screenshots are MCP auto-analyzing malware like BPFdoor (🔥) and a Lazarus loader, with remarkably clear labeling. The generated report is solid (though not flawless), and even includes fully working Python code for decryption. Long live MCP! 🎊
