HTMLHexViewer

Hexdump but easier to read.

HTMLHexViewer is exactly what its name suggests, A HTML Hex Viewer inspired by the CLI tool hexdump. While still retaining almost all core functionalities of hex dump. HTMLHexViewer makes it possible to create stand-alone reports of the binary you're investigating.

Installation

HTMLHexViewer can be installed using pip. with the simple command pip install htmlhexviewer. If you prefer a more cutting edge version you could also install it with the following command: pip install git+git://github.com/Vepnar/HtmlHexViewer.git

Usage

To convert an entire file into an HTML report execute.

htmlhexviewer {target_binary}

You could also run HTMLHexViewer as a package as the previous command doesn't work.

python -m htmlhexviewer {target_binary}

It's recommended to set a max length of processed byte sequence with the parameter -r [bytes to process] and the offset with -O [offset]. The browser can't efficiently render many thousands of elements. For example:

htmlhexviewer -r 1000 -O 0 /usr/bin/bash

The peformance drop on even small applications is very large. Thus these flags are a must.
