# FoxDec > FoxDec is a research decompiler for formally checked lifting of x86-64 binaries to recompilable NASM. The current version uses NASM as its intermediate representation, and an earlier version lifted C. The README limits inputs to sequential C binaries that follow the System V AMD64 ABI, and the quick start runs through Docker. - Type: Tool - Targets: Binary - Category: Native analysis tools - Relationship: Foundation tool - Sources reviewed: 2026-11-07 - Added to the catalog: 2026-11-09 - Original resource: - Primary source: - Catalog page: - Record JSON: - Chinese version: [简体中文](https://awesomerea.org/zh/resources/foxdec/index.md) ## Requirements & limits - **Prerequisites:** The published quick start downloads a FoxDec zip and uses Docker. Building without Docker is documented for developers in foxdec/docs/build.md. Recompiling the NASM output uses nasm and gcc. - **Limits:** Inputs must be x86-64 ELF binaries compiled from C under the System V AMD64 ABI. The README excludes C++ and concurrent code. - **License:** GitHub reports the license as Apache-2.0. ## Primary sources 1. ## More in Native binaries - [Dragodis](https://awesomerea.org/resources/dragodis/index.md) · Tool - [MBBSDASM](https://awesomerea.org/resources/mbbsdasm/index.md) · Tool - [blc](https://awesomerea.org/resources/blc/index.md) · Tool - [IDA BPF Processor](https://awesomerea.org/resources/ida-bpf-processor/index.md) · Tool - [Udis86](https://awesomerea.org/resources/udis86/index.md) · Tool - [Quick Assembler](https://awesomerea.org/resources/quickasm/index.md) · Tool ## About this entry The description was reviewed against primary sources.
