We present DRAGON, a graph neural network (GNN) that predicts data types for decompiled variables along with a confidence estimate for each prediction. While we only train DRAGON on x64 binaries compiled without optimization, we show that DRAGON generalizes well to all combinations of the x64, x86, ARM64, and ARM architectures compiled across optimization levels O0-O3. We compare DRAGON with two state-of-the-art approaches for binary type inference and demonstrate that DRAGON exhibits a competitive or superior level of accuracy for simple type prediction while also providing useful confidence estimates. We show that the learned confidence estimates produced by DRAGON strongly correlate with accuracy, such that higher confidence predictions generally correspond with a higher level of accuracy than lower confidence predictions.
