Edb-Debugger, pre-installed on Kali Linux at /usr/bin/edb, is an open-source, cross-platform graphical debugger for x86 and x86-64 binaries, inspired by OllyDbg but designed for Linux, with ongoing ports to FreeBSD, OpenBSD, macOS, and Windows. Developed by Evan Teran, EDB (Evan’s Debugger) leverages the ptrace API and Capstone disassembly library to provide a modular, extensible platform for reverse engineering and malware analysis. With its intuitive GUI, plugin-based debugging core, and support for conditional breakpoints, it’s a vital tool for cybersecurity researchers, ethical hackers, and forensic analysts.
