Hello,
I am trying to see if there is a list or repository anywhere for third party plugins . Also, I am running the hivescan with the1.3 Beta. I dumped the hivescan plugin package in the Volatility directory, but when I run it I am getting the message: Error: Invalid module [ hivescan ]. Are there any docs to address running third party apps with Volatility ? I am running it on Windows.
Thanks
I tried the hibr2dmp utility, but it fails on both my Vista possible hacking hibernation file, as well as a Vista 32-bit test hibernation file. Both contain a block of zeros at the beginning of the file.

Is anyone working on extending Volatility to work with Vista? I have a hibernation file from a Vista (32-bit) machine and am searching for possible intrusion/hacking. Don't have ram capture.

Bruce,
Change the extension from ".txt" to ".bin" or maybe even try ".dmp" and then run Volatility. It has been a while since I have done it, but I believe you will want to use ".bin".

The latest forensics challenge for The Honeynet Project involves
investigating a memory sample of an infected virtual machine. In order to
encourage research and development in the area of memory forensics, The
Order of Volatility plans to augment the prizes awarded to those
submissions in the top three which leverage The Volatility Framework. Even
if you are a Volatility power-user who doesn't find the questions
particularly interesting, we still encourage you to participate. To that
end, we are also planning to recognize the submission that extends the
Volatility Framework in the most unique or creative way (i.e., plugins,
visualizations, etc). Submissions are due by 17:00 EST, Sunday, April
18th 2010.
Shoutz to Josh Smith, a Volatility supporter, for helping to encourage
research in the area of memory forensics!

I did a memory and volatile data acquisition with Helix.
While using the enscript version of volatility I found on the blog, I ran it
against the memorydump and the TCP network connections scan showed a
connection:
192.168.1.104:1142 81.169.145.x:80 3852
The strange thing is, I cant find the process accociated with processid 3852
in the enscript version with pslist.
When I run the volatility program from a linux commandline I cant see any
connection at all (with the options connscan and connscan2) and there is no
process in plist with id 3852.
In the volatile data report of Helix this connection isnt showing either.
Of course I want to know what kind of process this is, can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot,
K Bertens

Just out of curiosity, was there message text in this email? I didn't
get it for some reason...

I think I know the answer to this, but I want to be certain.
I captured live memory with FTK Imager Lite (Current version)
I am now trying to examine the memory, and receive:
commandme : python volatility connections -f memdump.txt
/work/Volatility-1.3_Beta/forensics/win32/crashdump.py:31: DeprecationWarning: the sha module is deprecated; use the hashlib module instead
import sha
Usage: connections [options] (see --help)
volatility: error: Unable to load image. Possible causes: invalid dtb, wrong image type, unsupported image type.
I suspect that FTK doesn't create a linear image.
I tried this on a Mac and WIndows.
If this is correct, does anyone know of an open source tool I can analyze this ftk memory dump with? I can't recreate another.
I tried wmft_0.2 but I think that this tool is in the early stages of development. I was only able to pul a lit of drivers with it.

Has any one seen the following on the output from connscan? The connections are both external and the PID is impossibly high.
