# Shellcode Analysis
We may encounter some shellcode which needs to be analyzed
and `scdbg` is one such tool if we provide it shellcode it can return the api calls and action shellcode is performing e.g.
when we extracted shellcode(without 0x), we can open it in scdbg and in UI we can select unlimited steps to get complete detail

unlimited steps says you don't have a limit on how many cpu instructions you want to analyze.
if you don't do that you analysis will stop prematurely.
## Dynamic Anlaysis
When we are doing dynamic analysis, we find some shellcode is being written we need to analyze that. e.g. in this we paused execution of writeprocessmemory and analyzed 3rd param which is shellcode in dump and dumped it to a file and using same tool like scdbg analyzed the shellcode

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:
```
GET https://newrouge.gitbook.io/roguebook1/group/malware-analysis/shellcode-analysis.md?ask=
```
The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
