volatility3.plugins.windows.strings module
- class Strings(context, config_path, progress_callback=None)[source]
Bases:
PluginInterface
Reads output from the strings command and indicates which process(es) each string belongs to.
- Parameters:
- build_configuration()
Constructs a HierarchicalDictionary of all the options required to build this component in the current context.
Ensures that if the class has been created, it can be recreated using the configuration built Inheriting classes must override this to ensure any dependent classes update their configurations too
- Return type:
- property config: HierarchicalDict
The Hierarchical configuration Dictionary for this Configurable object.
- property context: ContextInterface
The context object that this configurable belongs to/configuration is stored in.
- classmethod generate_mapping(context, layer_name, symbol_table, progress_callback=None, pid_list=None)[source]
Creates a reverse mapping between virtual addresses and physical addresses.
- Parameters:
context (
ContextInterface
) – the context for the method to run againstlayer_name (
str
) – the layer to map against the string linessymbol_table (
str
) – the name of the symbol table for the provided layerprogress_callback (
Optional
[Callable
[[float
,str
],None
]]) – an optional callable to display progresspid_list (
Optional
[List
[int
]]) – a lit of process IDs to consider when generating the reverse map
- Return type:
- Returns:
A mapping of virtual offsets to strings and physical offsets
- classmethod get_requirements()[source]
Returns a list of Requirement objects for this plugin.
- Return type:
- classmethod make_subconfig(context, base_config_path, **kwargs)
Convenience function to allow constructing a new randomly generated sub-configuration path, containing each element from kwargs.
- Parameters:
context (
ContextInterface
) – The context in which to store the new configurationbase_config_path (
str
) – The base configuration path on which to build the new configurationkwargs – Keyword arguments that are used to populate the new configuration path
- Returns:
The newly generated full configuration path
- Return type:
- property open
Returns a context manager and thus can be called like open
- run()[source]
Executes the functionality of the code.
Note
This method expects self.validate to have been called to ensure all necessary options have been provided
- Returns:
A TreeGrid object that can then be passed to a Renderer.
- strings_pattern = re.compile(b'^(?:\\W*)([0-9]+)(?:\\W*)(\\w[\\w\\W]+)\\n?')
- classmethod unsatisfied(context, config_path)
Returns a list of the names of all unsatisfied requirements.
Since a satisfied set of requirements will return [], it can be used in tests as follows:
unmet = configurable.unsatisfied(context, config_path) if unmet: raise RuntimeError("Unsatisfied requirements: {}".format(unmet)
- Return type:
- version = (1, 2, 0)
