Increasing the size of a section (rodata) in ELF binary

[Nikhil1212]

Hi everyone,
I would like to add a new string constant to my binary (ELF). So, for that, I want to increase the size of the rodata section so that my constant string fits in rodata. May I know how we can increase the size of a particular section (rodata) using pyelftools.

Thanks for the help

ELF writing is not supported in pyelftools, and was never planned. You'll need some other ELF library.

There is a write capable fork of pyelftools at https://github.com/mefistotelis/pyelftools
