With **the mission of promoting technical knowledge**, this congress is a boiling meeting point for technology and cybersecurity professionals in every discipline. {% embed url="https://www.rootedcon.com/" %} If you want something **fast and crazy** that will launch several Volatility plugins on parallel you can use: [https://github.com/carlospolop/autoVolatility](https://github.com/carlospolop/autoVolatility) ```bash python autoVolatility.py -f MEMFILE -d OUT_DIRECTORY -e /home/user/tools/volatility/vol.py # It will use the most important plugins (could use a lot of space depending on the size of the memory) ``` ## Installation ### volatility3 ```bash git clone https://github.com/volatilityfoundation/volatility3.git cd volatility3 python3 setup.py install python3 vol.py โ€”h ``` ### volatility2 {% tabs %} {% tab title="Method1" %} ``` Download the executable from https://www.volatilityfoundation.org/26 ``` {% endtab %} {% tab title="Method 2" %} ```bash git clone https://github.com/volatilityfoundation/volatility.git cd volatility python setup.py install ``` {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Volatility Commands Access the official doc in [Volatility command reference](https://github.com/volatilityfoundation/volatility/wiki/Command-Reference#kdbgscan) ### A note on โ€œlistโ€ vs. โ€œscanโ€ plugins Volatility has two main approaches to plugins, which are sometimes reflected in their names. โ€œlistโ€ plugins will try to navigate through Windows Kernel structures to retrieve information like processes (locate and walk the linked list of `_EPROCESS` structures in memory), OS handles (locating and listing the handle table, dereferencing any pointers found, etc). They more or less behave like the Windows API would if requested to, for example, list processes. That makes โ€œlistโ€ plugins pretty fast, but just as vulnerable as the Windows API to manipulation by malware. For instance, if malware uses DKOM to unlink a process from the `_EPROCESS` linked list, it wonโ€™t show up in the Task Manager and neither will it in the pslist. โ€œscanโ€ plugins, on the other hand, will take an approach similar to carving the memory for things that might make sense when dereferenced as specific structures. `psscan` for instance will read the memory and try to make`_EPROCESS` objects out of it (it uses pool-tag scanning, which is searching for 4-byte strings that indicate the presence of a structure of interest). The advantage is that it can dig up processes that have exited, and even if malware tampers with the `_EPROCESS` linked list, the plugin will still find the structure lying around in memory (since it still needs to exist for the process to run). The downfall is that โ€œscanโ€ plugins are a bit slower than โ€œlistโ€ plugins, and can sometimes yield false positives (a process that exited too long ago and had parts of its structure overwritten by other operations). From: [http://tomchop.me/2016/11/21/tutorial-volatility-plugins-malware-analysis/](http://tomchop.me/2016/11/21/tutorial-volatility-plugins-malware-analysis/) ## OS Profiles ### Volatility3 As explained inside the readme you need to put the **symbol table of the OS** you want to support inside _volatility3/volatility/symbols_.\ Symbol table packs for the various operating systems are available for **download** at: * [https://downloads.volatilityfoundation.org/volatility3/symbols/windows.zip](https://downloads.volatilityfoundation.org/volatility3/symbols/windows.zip) * [https://downloads.volatilityfoundation.org/volatility3/symbols/mac.zip](https://downloads.volatilityfoundation.org/volatility3/symbols/mac.zip) * [https://downloads.volatilityfoundation.org/volatility3/symbols/linux.zip](https://downloads.volatilityfoundation.org/volatility3/symbols/linux.zip) ### Volatility2 #### External Profile You can get the list of supported profiles doing: ```bash ./volatility_2.6_lin64_standalone --info | grep "Profile" ``` If you want to use a **new profile you have downloaded** (for example a linux one) you need to create somewhere the following folder structure: _plugins/overlays/linux_ and put inside this folder the zip file containing the profile. Then, get the number of the profiles using: ```bash ./vol --plugins=/home/kali/Desktop/ctfs/final/plugins --info Volatility Foundation Volatility Framework 2.6 Profiles -------- LinuxCentOS7_3_10_0-123_el7_x86_64_profilex64 - A Profile for Linux CentOS7_3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64_profile x64 VistaSP0x64 - A Profile for Windows Vista SP0 x64 VistaSP0x86 - A Profile for Windows Vista SP0 x86 ``` You can **download Linux and Mac profiles** from [https://github.com/volatilityfoundation/profiles](https://github.com/volatilityfoundation/profiles) In the previous chunk you can see that the profile is called `LinuxCentOS7_3_10_0-123_el7_x86_64_profilex64`, and you can use it to execute something like: ```bash ./vol -f file.dmp --plugins=. --profile=LinuxCentOS7_3_10_0-123_el7_x86_64_profilex64 linux_netscan ``` #### Discover Profile ``` volatility imageinfo -f file.dmp volatility kdbgscan -f file.dmp ``` #### **Differences between imageinfo and kdbgscan** As opposed to imageinfo which simply provides profile suggestions, **kdbgscan** is designed to positively identify the correct profile and the correct KDBG address (if there happen to be multiple). This plugin scans for the KDBGHeader signatures linked to Volatility profiles and applies sanity checks to reduce false positives. The verbosity of the output and the number of sanity checks that can be performed depends on whether Volatility can find a DTB, so if you already know the correct profile (or if you have a profile suggestion from imageinfo), then make sure you use it (from [here](https://www.andreafortuna.org/2017/06/25/volatility-my-own-cheatsheet-part-1-image-identification/)). Always take a look at the **number of processes that kdbgscan has found**. Sometimes imageinfo and kdbgscan can find **more than one** suitable **profile** but only the **valid one will have some process related** (This is because to extract processes the correct KDBG address is needed) ```bash # GOOD PsActiveProcessHead : 0xfffff800011977f0 (37 processes) PsLoadedModuleList : 0xfffff8000119aae0 (116 modules) ``` ```bash # BAD PsActiveProcessHead : 0xfffff800011947f0 (0 processes) PsLoadedModuleList : 0xfffff80001197ac0 (0 modules) ``` #### KDBG The **kernel debugger block** (named KdDebuggerDataBlock of the type \_KDDEBUGGER\_DATA64, or **KDBG** by volatility) is important for many things that Volatility and debuggers do. For example, it has a reference to the PsActiveProcessHead which is the list head of all processes required for process listing. ## OS Information ```bash #vol3 has a plugin to give OS information (note that imageinfo from vol2 will give you OS info) ./vol.py -f file.dmp windows.info.Info ``` The plugin `banners.Banners` can be used in **vol3 to try to find linux banners** in the dump. ## Hashes/Passwords Extract SAM hashes, [domain cached credentials](../../../windows-hardening/stealing-credentials/credentials-protections.md#cached-credentials) and [lsa secrets](../../../windows-hardening/authentication-credentials-uac-and-efs.md#lsa-secrets). {% tabs %} {% tab title="vol3" %} ```bash ./vol.py -f file.dmp windows.hashdump.Hashdump #Grab common windows hashes (SAM+SYSTEM) ./vol.py -f file.dmp windows.cachedump.Cachedump #Grab domain cache hashes inside the registry ./vol.py -f file.dmp windows.lsadump.Lsadump #Grab lsa secrets ``` {% endtab %} {% tab title="vol2" %} ```bash volatility --profile=Win7SP1x86_23418 hashdump -f file.dmp #Grab common windows hashes (SAM+SYSTEM) volatility --profile=Win7SP1x86_23418 cachedump -f file.dmp #Grab domain cache hashes inside the registry volatility --profile=Win7SP1x86_23418 lsadump -f file.dmp #Grab lsa secrets ``` {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Memory Dump The memory dump of a process will **extract everything** of the current status of the process. The **procdump** module will only **extract** the **code**. ``` volatility -f file.dmp --profile=Win7SP1x86 memdump -p 2168 -D conhost/ ``` โ€‹

The MBR also contains executable code to function as a loader for the installed operating systemโ€”usually by passing control over to the loader's [second stage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-stage\_boot\_loader), or in conjunction with each partition's [volume boot record](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume\_boot\_record) (VBR). This MBR code is usually referred to as a [boot loader](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boot\_loader). From [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master\_boot\_record). โ€‹
