volatility3.plugins.windows.orphan_kernel_threads module
- class Threads(*args, **kwargs)[source]
Bases:
ThrdScan
Lists process threads
- Parameters:
context – The context that the plugin will operate within
config_path – The path to configuration data within the context configuration data
progress_callback – A callable that can provide feedback at progress points
- 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 filter_func(config)
Returns a function that can filter this plugin’s implementation method based on the config
- Return type:
- classmethod gather_thread_info(ethread)
- generate_timeline()
Method generates Tuples of (description, timestamp_type, timestamp)
These need not be generated in any particular order, sorting will be done later
- classmethod get_requirements()[source]
Returns a list of Requirement objects for this plugin.
- Return type:
- classmethod list_orphan_kernel_threads(context, module_name)[source]
Yields thread objects of kernel threads that do not map to a module
- Parameters:
cls –
context (
ContextInterface
) – the context to operate uponmodule_name (
str
) – name of the module to use for scanning
- Return type:
- Returns:
A generator of thread objects of orphaned threads
- 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()
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.
- classmethod scan_threads(context, module_name)
Scans for threads using the poolscanner module and constraints.
- Parameters:
context (
ContextInterface
) – The context to retrieve required elements (layers, symbol tables) frommodule_name (
str
) – Name of the module to use for scanning
- Return type:
- Returns:
A list of _ETHREAD objects found by scanning memory for the “Thre” / “ThrxE5” pool signatures
- 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, 0, 0)
