Cutter incorrectly names variables for main function.

[ThiagoRangel7]

I'm just learning assembly, so please excuse me if I use the wrong technical terms.

Environment information

• Operating System: Windows 11 Pro 22H2
• Cutter version: 2.3.1
• Obtained from:
  • Built from source
  • Downloaded release from Cutter website or GitHub
  • Distribution repository
• File format: exe

Describe the bug

Cutter assigns wrong variable names for main function parameters (argc, argv and envp).
Where it should show argc, it shows argv. Where it should show argv, it shows envp.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download Good_Luck from this tutorial: https://www.begin.re/playground-exercises (zip password: CLEAN)
2. Disassemble and analyze it on Cutter
3. Check variable names on main function accordingly to the following screenshots.

Expected behavior

• argv should be corrected to argc.
• envp should be corrected to argv.

Screenshots

This is IDA's variable names:

Additional context
Apparently, the variable name is being set to the next parameter, instead of the right one.

Maybe this same problem is happening in other functions (not only main)? For example, for any given function

int Func(int param1, int param2, int param3, ..., int paramN)

Cutter would show param2 instead of param1, param3 instead of param2, param4 instead of param3, paramN instead of paramN-1 and so on.

I'm very new to Assembly and I don't know how to test it though.
