I updated our documentation to make it clear that decimal offsets are
required, and we'll give your suggestion below some thought before the
next major release of Volatility

Thanks!

I did figure out one way to do this, and it works if
the memory block is
used by a process.
I used memmap and dumped every processes to a text file. I then used notepad
to search for my physical address (and found it). The I just page-up until I
see that process name.
It would be really cool if there was a switch that would change the output
from:
smss.exe pid: 724
Virtual Physical Size
0x0000100000 0x00090b6000 0x000000001000
to:
Virtual Physical Size
Process PID
0x0000100000 0x00090b6000 0x000000001000 smss.exe 724
Then you could put it in a spreadsheet, sort on physical address. You would
then have a great guide to reference when you were exploring the memory dump
with Encase or a sector editor (looking for interesting addresses or
strings). I do this frequently.
Best to all,

Subject: [Vol-users] what is at that address
I have a text string that I found in memory and I would like to find out
what is using/mapped to that address. (a process, a dll, a buffer,
unallocated, etc.)
How do I do that? I'm exploring the docs to see how close I can get; for
example dumping what I can with memmap, and then searching for my physical
offset. (but that only gets me processes)
Any suggestions appreciated.
