analyzing-golang-malware-with-ghidra
Reverse engineer Go-compiled malware in Ghidra by parsing Go buildinfo and pclntab structures, recovering stripped/obfuscated function names (e.g. via GoResolver), and extracting embedded module/dependency strings and types from Go binaries. Use when analyzing a Go-language malware sample, deobfuscating a garble-packed Go binary, or recovering function names and third-party dependencies from a stripped Go executable.

High
Do not use without reviewing
Security
1 high severity finding. You should review these findings carefully before considering using this skill.
W007: Insecure credential handling detected in skill instructions.
What this means
The skill handles credentials insecurely by requiring the agent to include secret values verbatim in its generated output. This exposes credentials in the agent’s context and conversation history, creating a risk of data exfiltration.
Why it was flagged
The provided scripts explicitly extract and print "suspicious strings" (including keywords like "key", "token", "password"), so an agent following this skill would output any embedded secrets verbatim.
Low
Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The skill explicitly lists the GoResolver plugin as a prerequisite and the API reference includes a git clone command that fetches and then executes GoResolver in Ghidra (git clone https://github.com/volexity/GoResolver followed by analyzeHeadless -postScript), meaning remote code would be fetched and executed as part of the workflow.
