ERR997.ExceptionLoadingAnalysisTarget for .exe file about binskim HOT 5 CLOSED

Thanks a lot. It works for me now and the issue can be closed. But one short question: do you know when the next official release is planned for BinSkim on NuGet? I saw that it has been quite a while since the last release was published.

Hi, the file in question 'pr27708.exe', is it a ELF file or PE file,

I can provide the exact file that caused the exception, if required. --- If this file is a public acquirable nonsensitive file, yes, I can debug it and check. If it comes with .pdb file please provide together.

Hi @shaopeng-gh,
I think it is an ELF file. The MIME type is "application/x-pie-executable".

You can download it here: https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.39.tar.xz
The file is in the following directory: "binutils-2.39/binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/x86-64/pr27708.exe.bz2"

Thanks a lot!

Good news, I have reproduced the issue from the pr27708.exe inside that package you provided,
and also can confirm this issue is resolved in the latest version of BinSkim will not throw exception.
Please build a latest version of BinSkim from main branch.
For how to build: https://github.com/microsoft/binskim/blob/main/README.md#for-developers

Let me know if the issue can be closed.

Glad to hear!
Unfortunately we don't currently have plan to release a official release recently.
However we may release a newer version in NuGet in the future.
