[Verse 1] When the kernel sleeps in storage space We can peek inside without a trace No runtime needed, no system load Just static tools to crack the code objdump and nm are our best friends To see how kernel magic blends [Chorus] objdump dash d for disassembly nm for symbols, clear to see Static analysis, safe and sound No execution, knowledge found Read the sections, map the flow Everything you need to know [Verse 2] Symbol tables tell the story true Functions, variables in clear view nm dash D shows dynamic links While nm dash g finds global thinks Text and data sections laid out clean The clearest kernel map you've seen [Chorus] objdump dash d for disassembly nm for symbols, clear to see Static analysis, safe and sound No execution, knowledge found Read the sections, map the flow Everything you need to know [Bridge] Dash t for symbol types displayed Dash s shows sections neatly laid Cross-reference calls with dash x Find dependencies, no complex hex From entry points to exit calls Static view reveals it all [Verse 3] Architecture matters, choose your flags ARM or x86, avoid the snags objdump dash S mixes source with code Making sense of the kernel's load Security analysis starts right here With static tools, the path is clear [Chorus] objdump dash d for disassembly nm for symbols, clear to see Static analysis, safe and sound No execution, knowledge found Read the sections, map the flow Everything you need to know [Outro] Before you boot, before you run Static analysis gets things done Kernel secrets, plain to see With objdump and nm mastery
