Paranoia 0.2.0

Paranoia 0.2.0 brings the core IDA Pro workflow to Paranoia.

Downloads

• Paranoia-Setup-0.2.0.exe — Windows installer (per-user, no admin rights)
• Paranoia-0.2.0-portable.exe — single-file portable build

Builds are not code-signed yet; Windows SmartScreen may ask for confirmation on first launch.

New

• Code and data in one listing — db/dw/dd/dq, strings, offset pointers, extrn import slots, dup runs and XREF comments, like IDA's disassembly view
• Auto names — aHelloWorld, byte_/word_/dword_/qword_…, off_… from how data is accessed
• Item commands — Code (C), Data with size cycling (D), String (A), Undefine (U), Create function (P)
• Switch tables — absolute, MSVC __ImageBase-relative and PIC tables become case edges in the graph
• API prototypes — ~250 WinAPI / libc signatures label arguments (; lpFileName) and calls; pseudocode uses them for argument counts
• Stack frame view — locals and arguments with sizes and read/write counts
• Xrefs dialog (X), Names window, call graph with caller/callee depth, navigation band
• Right-click menu — rename, comment, bookmark, xrefs, item commands, patches, open in graph / pseudocode / hex
• Instruction patches — NOP, invert condition, force jump (x86/x64 and AArch64)
• Undo / redo (Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y) for names, comments, items, functions and patches
• Script console (Ctrl+` ) — JavaScript with the pn API: functions, names, xrefs, bytes, rename, comment, patch, goto, plus examples
• Token highlight: click a register or name to highlight every occurrence

Fixes

• Search finds auto-named data
• Constants such as 0x80000000 are no longer shown as addresses

See the roadmap for parity status with IDA Pro and what comes next.

Paranoia 0.1.1

Brand refresh for Paranoia.

Downloads

• Paranoia-Setup-0.1.1.exe — Windows installer (per-user, no admin rights)
• Paranoia-0.1.1-portable.exe — single-file portable build

Builds are not code-signed yet; Windows SmartScreen may ask for confirmation on first launch.

Changes

• New app icon: clay tile with an ivory whale, in the same warm palette as the app
• Flat clay whale in the app header; the welcome screen shows the icon tile
• New light and dark wordmark lockups in Source Serif
• Brand guide in docs/BRAND.md

All features from 0.1.0 are unchanged.

Paranoia 0.1.0

First public release of Paranoia — an open, local-first reverse engineering platform.

Downloads

• Paranoia-Setup-0.1.0.exe — Windows installer (per-user, no admin rights)
• Paranoia-0.1.0-portable.exe — single-file portable build

Builds are not code-signed yet; Windows SmartScreen may ask for confirmation on first launch.

Highlights

• PE, ELF and Mach-O loading (universal binaries, chained fixups, forwarders, TLS callbacks)
• x86, x86-64 and AArch64 disassembly with IDA-style labels, jump arrows and annotations
• Control-flow graphs, pseudocode view (x86/x64), cross references and callees
• MSVC / Itanium / Rust demangling; rename, comments, bookmarks — saved per file hash
• Byte-pattern, text and immediate search; hex view with patching and "save patched file"
• Triage: hashes, imphash, entropy map, section map, checksec-style mitigations
• Create functions, re-run analysis, export to IDA IDC
• Light "ivory" and dark "warm graphite" themes; private by design — no accounts, no telemetry
