the problem about create a profile for my android

by yutruth

Dear Everyone: I have a problem about analysing an android memory these days. I am new to android memory forensic,and i analyse the windows memory before.But i think analysing an android memory may more interesting and valuable. I have followed the url "https://code.google.com/p/volatility/wiki/AndroidMemoryForensics#Build_a_Vo…" ,and i have done successfully. Now, by useing lime i can get my android memory, my android is samsung9001, and the memory file is ram.lime (almost 400M size). But the problem is that: when i use volatility2.3_beta to analyse the android memory , volatility can't identify the profle that i created. The output is below： Volatile Systems Volatility Framework 2.3_beta Offset Name Pid Uid Gid DTB Start Time ---------- -------------------- --------------- --------------- ------ ---------- ----------

Virtual Machine / Linux memory

by Lou LaRocca

Maybe a stupid question here but does Volatility currently support the analysis of linux memory from a Virtual Machine? I see that it supports VM's and Linux separately but not together? Thanks in advance Lou

Memory Forensics Training by Volatility Developers is headed back to Reston!

by Andrew Case

After quickly selling out our recent course in Reston, we have now scheduled another training there in November: http://volatility-labs.blogspot.com/2013/06/memory-forensics-training-resto… This course is taught directly by Volatility developers, and provides intense training in memory forensics for incident response, malware analysis, and digital forensic investigation. We already have quite a few people signed up and had to turn away people last time, so please contact us ASAP if you are interested in taking it. Thanks, Andrew (@attrc)

OT: Using netsh to set ip address of an interface on winfe/winpe 4.0.

by George M. Garner Jr.

This post is off-topic; however, there are a lot of bright people on this list so maybe someone will be able to help. I need to set a static ipv4 address on an interface in WinPE4.0/WinFE4.0. For example the following command works on Windows 8: netsh.exe interface ip set address Ethernet static 192.168.0.5 255.255.255.0 On WinPE 4.0 I am getting an error that the interface is not found which is odd since the interface appears in the list of interfaces. For example: netsh.exe interface ip show interfaces and netsh.exe interface ip show interface Ethernet both work as expected. I can also add a route on the interface in WinPE, e.g.: netsh.exe interface ip add route 192.168.0.0/24 Ethernet works. It is just adding the static ip address that doesn't work. I have also tried using the IF index instead of the interface name; still no joy. Unfortunately I can't use dhcp in some applications because the client broadcasts an announcement that I am present, which wouldn't be prudent. I am wondering if there isn't maybe some dependency that is missing from my winpe installation? Anyone have any thoughts? Regards, George.

Problem using bitmaps in overlays

by Carl Pulley

Hi all, I'm currently attempting to code up a bitmap (within an overlay) that consists of an array of 4 ulongs. With (say) a single ulong, the following works great: profile.merge_overlay({ 'XXX': [ None, ['Flags', {'target': 'unsigned long', 'bitmap': { 'A': 0, 'B': 1, 'C': 2 }}]] }) However, the obvious generalisation to 4 ulongs: profile.merge_overlay({ 'XXX': [ None, ['Flags', {'target': ['array', 4, ['unsigned long']], 'bitmap': { 'A': 0, 'B': 1, 'C': 2 }}]] }) fails. Looking at the source, the profile.merge_overlay calls: obj.Object(['array', 4, ['unsigned long']], offset=0, ..) and this function in turn raises an exception (i.e. TypeError: unhashable type: 'list') when it calls: vm.profile.has_type(['array', 4, ['unsigned long']]) Attempts at using obj.Array instead also flounder. Does anyone have any hints or tips as to how best to deal with bitmaps that are arrays of bytes, ulongs or similar? Is it a case of having to extend the obj.Flags class so that such things can be handled? Many thanks, Carl.

No shimcache data found

by Brian Keefer

I look at mostly Win7/64 systems and have always found shimcache data in memory images before. In the last several weeks only about 50% of the images I looked at had it. I'm running a 2.3 alpha build from a month or two ago (have been all this time). While not strictly a Volatility issue, could someone explain under what circumstances the data wouldn't be available? I'm not a Windows internals expert (yet, I have part 1 and part 2 on my bookshelf, waiting...) Thanks! -- chort

Final Week of Month of Volatility Plugins II is posted

by Andrew Case

We are writing as the final week of the second installment of the Month of Volatility Plugins is now posted. Volatility 2.3 is currently in beta, and the blog posts are focusing on new features in this version. This week's posts discussed a number of new and updated plugins used to analyze Mac systems. The first post demonstrated leveraging process cross-view analysis for Mac rootkit detection: http://volatility-labs.blogspot.com/2013/06/movp-ii-41-leveraging-process-c… The second post covered dumping, scanning, and searching process memory: http://volatility-labs.blogspot.com/2013/06/movp-ii-42-dumping-scanning-and… The third post discussed how to recover networking information: http://volatility-labs.blogspot.com/2013/06/movp-ii-43-recovering-mac-os-x-… The fourth post showed a number of artifacts in Mac kernel memory: http://volatility-labs.blogspot.com/2013/06/movp-ii-44-whats-in-your-mac-os… The fifth post analyzed the Rubilyn kernel rootkit and detected it in a number of ways: http://volatility-labs.blogspot.com/2013/06/movp-ii-45-mac-volatility-vs-ru… We hope you have enjoyed this month's posts and will be trying 2.3 when its released! If you have any questions or comments please comment on an individual blog post or reply to this email. Thanks, Andrew (@attrc)

Mucho processes

by Glenn Edwards

Background: The user logged off (I know, I know) of the system (WinXP) and the first responder logged back in under a different user and took the memory dump. When running pslist against the memory dump there're 2,423 entries. I'm seeing a lot of entries where the process starts and exits - sometimes in a row: 0x89b3f868 userinit.exe 3808 548 0 -------- 0 0 2013-05-26 10:00:10 UTC+0000 2013-05-26 10:00:10 UTC+0000 0x89b89ad0 userinit.exe 3156 548 0 -------- 0 0 2013-05-26 10:00:28 UTC+0000 2013-05-26 10:00:28 UTC+0000 0x89b2a868 userinit.exe 3672 548 0 -------- 0 0 2013-05-26 11:30:11 UTC+0000 2013-05-26 11:30:11 UTC+0000 0x89afc020 userinit.exe 3388 548 0 -------- 0 0 2013-05-26 12:41:44 UTC+0000 2013-05-26 12:41:44 UTC+0000 0x89b49da0 userinit.exe 1336 548 0 -------- 0 0 2013-05-26 13:22:13 UTC+0000 2013-05-26 13:22:13 UTC+0000 and sometimes more spread out: 0x89c1da98 java.exe 4536 1368 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:23:35 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:26:15 UTC+0000 0x89141020 cscript.exe 8608 4536 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:24:12 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:24:14 UTC+0000 0x89142da0 wmiprvse.exe 3152 832 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:24:12 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:25:42 UTC+0000 0x89144ac0 minituner.exe 1120 1368 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:26:15 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:37:41 UTC+0000 0x8934d520 java.exe 9148 1368 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:37:41 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:43:54 UTC+0000 0x8934e020 cscript.exe 7620 9148 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:42:51 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:42:53 UTC+0000 0x895423b8 wmiprvse.exe 3664 832 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:42:51 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:44:21 UTC+0000 0x895ce8a0 minituner.exe 9940 1368 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:43:54 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:51:47 UTC+0000 0x893a3838 java.exe 4572 1368 0 -------- 0 0 2013-06-01 01:51:47 UTC+0000 2013-06-01 01:59:58 UTC+0000 Example of top processes by overall count of occurrence: $ cat pslist.txt | awk '{print $2}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr 364 java.exe 362 minituner.exe 335 userinit.exe 301 wmiprvse.exe 219 cscript.exe 192 verclsid.exe 91 wuauclt.exe 37 regsvr32.exe 34 winlogon.exe 34 csrss.exe [snip] I've never come across this before so I'm wondering if this could be attributed to the first responder not letting the system fully log them on prior to taking the memory dump and therefore there was a lot of still loading processes observed? -- Glenn Edwards @hiddenillusion
