# ragg2-cc(1)

ragg2-cc - CC frontend for compiling shellcodes

## SYNOPSIS

**ragg2-cc** \[**-a** *arch*\] \[**-b** *bits*\] \[**-k** *kernel*\] \[**-o** *file*\] \[**-dscxvh**\]

## DESCRIPTION

ragg2-cc is a frontend of CC. It is used to creates tiny binaries (1KB) or shellcodes in binary or hexpairs from a C source.

The compiler used is the one configured by the CC environment. This has been tested with gcc, llvm-gcc and clang.

Uses sflib (shellforge4) includes to get the syscall definitions.

Only linux/darwin x86-32/64 is supported at the moment. Planned support for more architectures.

## OPTIONS

- **-a** *arch*

  set architecture x86, arm

- **-b** *bits*

  32 or 64

- **-k** *kernel*

  windows, linux or osx

- **-o** *file*

  output file to write result of compilation

- **-h**

  show help message

- **-v**

  show version

- **-d**

  show assembler code

- **-s**

  generate assembly file

- **-c**

  generate compiled shellcode

- **-x**

  show hexpair bytes

## EXAMPLE

  $ cat hi.c\
   int main() {\
     write (1, "Hello World\\n", 12);\
     exit (0);\
   }

  $ ragg2-cc hi.c\
   hi.c.bin

  \# Linked into a tiny binary. This is 294 bytes\
   $ wc -c \< hi.c.bin\
      294

  $ ./hi.c.bin\
   Hello World

  \# The compiled shellcode has zeroes\
   $ ragg2-cc -x hi.c\

  \# Use a xor encoder with key 32 to bypass\
   $ ragg2 -e xor -c key=32 -B \`ragg2-cc -x hi.c\`\
