5.0.8

Highlights

This is a patch release with bug fixes and a few new additions:

• Python bindings on Linux load libcapstone.so now with the RTLD_DEEPBIND flag set. On some Linux systems this should limit the symbols' scopes to the library, instead of global ones. Useful for tools which have two different Capstone versions in their dependency tree.
• x86 decoding uses lookup tables now to increase the overall speed.
• Add support for x86 MOVSXD instructions.
