PinCTF is a Python-based tool that leverages Intel's Pin dynamic binary instrumentation framework for reverse engineering analysis. The tool wraps PIN functionality to instrument binary executables and count instructions during runtime execution. The tool operates by executing PIN commands through a Python script interface and reading output from PIN's generated inscount.out file. This allows analysts to gather instruction-level metrics and execution statistics from target binaries. PinCTF includes automated scripts for downloading and setting up Intel's PIN framework, with specific build instructions provided for Ubuntu 16.04 environments. The tool bridges the gap between PIN's low-level instrumentation capabilities and higher-level analysis workflows. The instruction counting functionality enables reverse engineers to analyze program behavior, identify code paths, and understand execution patterns within binary files. This makes it useful for malware analysis, software debugging, and general binary analysis tasks.
