Released Opal version contains bugs that do not allow the construction of TAC codes #182
Description
The latest Opal release 5.0.0 contains two bugs that do not allow the construction of TAC codes in very specific situations. Hence, Boomerang is not stable when analyzing program code when using Opal as the underlying framework. The bugs have been fixed in the current develop branch in the Opal repository. More precisely, we have the following dates:
- Latest Opal release:
Jan 23, 2023 - PR with the first fixed bug: 149 (merged
Oct 9, 2023) - PR with the second fixed bug: 151 (merged
Jan 25, 2024)
Current best solution: When using Boomerang, use a local build/installation that was tagged after Jan 25, 2024). Once a new Opal version is released, the bugs should resolve themselves
