EMBA - v2.0.1 - Interactor

[m-1-k-3]

The highlight of this release is the all new s130 module for generating a nice and interactive dependency map:

Beside this beauty we did some further updates and bugfixes in a lot of different areas:

• Lots of bugfixes and cleanups across modules and installers.
• Continued database updates (CISA KEV, Metasploit, Snyk, kernel/GCC/version DBs, etc.) to keep detection fresh.
• More robustness in installer / docker workflows and internal checks.

---

Beside your ongoing support with feedback, testing, working on issues and spreading EMBA you can now also support EMBA as a sponsor.

Check it out here and start being an essential part of the future of EMBA.

It is always a pleasure to welcome new contributors to EMBA. This time we welcome:

• @migus-rs made their first contribution in fix: allow specifying multiple installer arguments #1924
• @Spenc3rB made their first contribution in fix: ext filesystem mounting script logic #1944

Besides all our newcomers we also want to thank the other, regular contributors!

We had never before so many bug reports, contributors and helping hands! Big kudos to all of you!

Now, start your fresh Kali Linux (put enough CPU power and RAM into it) and install EMBA:

└─$ git clone https://github.com/e-m-b-a/emba.git
└─$ cd emba 
└─$ sudo ./installer.sh -d

This will install all pre-requisites, including the docker base image and the CVE database, which will need some bandwith, harddrive space and time.

Afterwards, you are ready to analyse your first firmware with EMBA:

└─$ sudo ./emba -l ~/log -f ~/firmware -p ./scan-profiles/quick-scan.emba

For updating your outdated EMBA installation, please check the update section in our wiki.
