[Vol-users] dual core issue?

Hello, I was just running Volatility on a couple of Linux boxes and received quite different results. I have tested this on two other boxes to verify the results and it seems to be a dual core issue. Here is the expected output on a single core system: $ cat /proc/version Linux version 2.6.22.9-91.fc7 $ python -V Python 2.5 $ Volatility-1.1.1/volatility pslist -f image.vmem Name Pid PPid Thds Hnds Time System 4 0 44 182 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 smss.exe 336 4 3 21 Mon Oct 29 19:23:16 2007 csrss.exe 392 336 9 287 Mon Oct 29 19:23:18 2007 winlogon.exe 416 336 24 453 Mon Oct 29 19:23:19 2007 services.exe 460 416 19 371 Mon Oct 29 19:23:20 2007 lsass.exe 472 416 26 319 Mon Oct 29 19:23:20 2007 svchost.exe 640 460 10 210 Mon Oct 29 19:23:21 2007 svchost.exe 684 460 79 1023 Mon Oct 29 19:23:21 2007 svchost.exe 780 460 4 67 Mon Oct 29 19:23:22 2007 svchost.exe 812 460 12 141 Mon Oct 29 19:23:23 2007 userinit.exe 1000 416 2 32 Mon Oct 29 19:23:25 2007 explorer.exe 1020 1000 12 231 Mon Oct 29 19:23:25 2007 spoolsv.exe 1048 460 6 37 Mon Oct 29 19:23:25 2007 msmsgs.exe 1468 1020 5 124 Mon Oct 29 19:23:33 2007 rundll32.exe 1524 1020 1 72 Mon Oct 29 19:23:37 2007 And here is the output from a dual core system: $ cat /proc/version Linux version 2.6.9-55.0.12.ELsmp $ python -V Python 2.3.4 $ Volatility-1.1.1/volatility pslist -f image.vmem /home/jlevy/forensic/Volatility-1.1.1/forensics/x86.py:101: FutureWarning: x<<y losing bits or changing sign will return a long in Python 2.4 and up return (pgd_entry & ((ptrs_per_pgd-1) << 22)) | (vaddr & ~((ptrs_per_pgd-1) << 22)) Name Pid PPid Thds Hnds Time System 4 0 44 182 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 /home/jlevy/forensic/Volatility-1.1.1/forensics/win32/datetime.py:58: FutureWarning: x<<y losing bits or changing sign will return a long in Python 2.4 and up return (high_time << 32) | low_time smss.exe 336 4 3 21 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 csrss.exe 392 336 9 287 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 winlogon.exe 416 336 24 453 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 services.exe 460 416 19 371 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 lsass.exe 472 416 26 319 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 svchost.exe 640 460 10 210 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 svchost.exe 684 460 79 1023 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 svchost.exe 780 460 4 67 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 svchost.exe 812 460 12 141 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 userinit.exe 1000 416 2 32 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 explorer.exe 1020 1000 12 231 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 spoolsv.exe 1048 460 6 37 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 msmsgs.exe 1468 1020 5 124 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 rundll32.exe 1524 1020 1 72 Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970 $ Volatility-1.1.1/volatility vaddump -f image.vmem /home/jlevy/forensic/Volatility-1.1.1/forensics/x86.py:101: FutureWarning: x<<y losing bits or changing sign will return a long in Python 2.4 and up return (pgd_entry & ((ptrs_per_pgd-1) << 22)) | (vaddr & ~((ptrs_per_pgd-1) << 22)) The above errors on the dual system have been observed on a dual core laptop running Ubuntu as well... I was wondering if others have seen this, and if there is a work around yet?
