Projektgeschichte

Development began in mid-2013. A major refactoring started in early 2015 to support newer UEFI features such as FFSv3 volumes and fixed image elements.

The project evolved into a suite: UEFITool provides the graphical viewer and editor, UEFIExtract recursively exports parsed structures, and UEFIFind searches image elements for byte patterns.

Adoptionsgeschichte

UEFITool emerged to fill the lack of cross-platform, open-source utilities for examining and modifying UEFI firmware images. Its engine also became the basis for the companion UEFIExtract and UEFIFind command-line tools.

Wie es verwendet wird

Users open a firmware image to inspect its tree structure, validate its integrity, search or extract components, and, where supported, manipulate image elements. Prebuilt binaries are available, while source builds use Qt with CMake or other supported build systems.

Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

UEFITool gives firmware researchers and system tinkerers a portable graphical view of the nested structures inside vendor firmware. The companion command-line tools make the same parsing engine useful in extraction, search, reverse-engineering, and automated analysis workflows.
