# binja_coolsigmaker (stable channel)
(**The dev branch now contains the version of the plugin for the binja development update channel.**)
(**master/main will target stable.**)
We all know signature scanning can be extremely useful. Sadly, the two public offerings for Binja are either very slow, or crash extremely often.
This is why I wrote this plugin. It's a signature scanning and creating plugin for x86 (more archs are planned!), written in Rust. It's extremely fast, supports multiple signature styles, and works like a charm.
[Blog Post](https://binary.ninja/2024/10/01/plugin-spotlight-coolsigmaker.html)
It supports 3 styles of signatures. Or 4, if you want to be specific.
To create a signature, select the instruction you want the signature to point to, then go to `Plugins->CSM - Create Signature`.
The signature is checked for uniqueness within all executable segments of the binary. `.data` is not considered, so make sure your signature scanning implementation also ignores non-code sections.
To find a signature, copy the signature to your clipboard in the format you selected in the configuration, and go to `Plugins->CSM - Find Signature`. All occurrences will be in your log.
These are the settings:
This is how it looks to create a signature, then scan for it:
## How to install
1. Download the platform-appropriate binary from release section
2. Place the binary in your Binary Ninja installation's plugin folder
Once GitHub Actions are set up and a loader plugin has been written, you will be able to install the plugin via the official plugin manager.
## Compiling yourself
This project requires the nightly channel of Rust.
Check the blog post above for a step-by-step.
Checkout the branch of the repository matching the channel of binja you are building for.
If necessary, adjust the `binaryninja` dependency line in `Cargo.toml` to refer to your specific desired version, e.g. replace `branch = "master"` with ` tag = "v5.0.7486-stable"`
You are now one `cargo b` away from greatness.
