Command-Line Quick Guide

Argument (short form, long form) Meaning
--sympath Symbols path value (e.g. SRV http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols or Cache d:\symbols;Srv http://symweb)
-o, --output File path used to write and output analysis using SARIF
-v, --verbose Emit verbose output. The comprehensive report is designed to provide appropriate evidence for compliance scenarios
-r, --recurse Recurse into subdirectories when evaluating file specifier arguments
-c, --config (Default: ‘default’) Path to policy file to be used to configure analysis. Passing value of 'default' (or omitting the argument) invokes built-in settings
-q, --quiet Do not log results to the console
-s, --statistics Generate timing and other statistics for analysis session
-h, --hashes Output hashes of analysis targets when emitting SARIF reports
-e, --environment

Log machine environment details of run to output file.

WARNING: This option records potentially sensitive information (such as all environment variable values) to the log file.

-p, --plug-in Path to plug-in that will be invoked against all targets in the analysis set.
--help Table of argument information.
--version BinSkim version details.
value pos. 0 One or more specifiers to a file, directory, or filter pattern that resolves to one or more binaries to analyze.
