Capstone adds multi‑architecture support in new release

The open‑source disassembly framework now handles ARM, RISC‑V and x86 on Windows, macOS and Linux.

Capstone announced a fresh build on June 3, 2026, expanding its disassembly engine to cover ARM, RISC‑V and x86 binaries across Windows, macOS and Linux.

The update ships as a drop‑in library, keeping the same API while adding new instruction tables and compiler‑friendly binaries. The project’s website lists the download and a short changelog, but no detailed release notes beyond the architecture list.

Developers who need to inspect compiled code in heterogeneous environments can now rely on a single toolkit instead of juggling several parsers. That reduces integration friction for security tools, emulators and reverse‑engineering scripts.

Capstone has been a staple in the reverse‑engineering community for years; this broadened support keeps it relevant as ARM and RISC‑V gain ground in servers and IoT devices.
