Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install binwalk on Fedora 34.
What is binwalk
Binwalk is a tool for searching a given binary image for embedded files and executable code. Specifically, it is designed for identifying files and code embedded inside of firmware images. Binwalk uses the python-magic library, so it is compatible with magic signatures created for the Unix file utility.
