We are happy to announce support for Lua compiled bytecode (LUAC) files. The new LUAC Format package parses and disassembles Lua bytecode across all major Lua versions, from 5.0 through 5.4.
Lua is one of the most widely embedded scripting languages. It powers game engines, network appliances, IoT firmware, and malware payloads alike. Compiled Lua bytecode (.luac) files are frequently encountered during firmware analysis, game modding, and malware reverse engineering. Having native LUAC support in Cerbero Suite means analysts can inspect bytecode structure and disassembly without external tools.
