When you see --profile parameter is used, then you assume that this is for volatility 2. In volatility 3, there is no need to use --profile parameter.


VOL3

To list all the process and all things related to process id:

python3 vol.py -f stuxnet.mem windows.pslist

python3 vol.py -f stuxnet.mem windows.psscan (get hidden process)

python3 vol.py -f stuxnet.mem windows.pstree (parent-child relationship)

psxview is not available is vol3. To use this you need to use vol2

Dump files or process using pid in a directory and find out sha1 hash of that malicious file:

python3 vol.py -f RogueProcessCase1.mem windows.pslist --dump --pid 5688   (suitable way)

python3 vol.py -f stuxnet.mem windows.dumpfiles --pid 8180  (not suitable way, it will dump so many files, you need to then find your malicious process, then take the hash and so on)

python3 vol.py -f stuxnet.mem -o . windows.dumpfiles --pid 8180 (not suitable way, it will dump so many files, you need to then find your malicious process, then take the hash and so on)

sha1sum <malicious file name>  

Hashdump from the memory capture: contains hash of users

python3 vol.py -f stuxnet.mem windows.hashdump 

or

python3 vol.py -f stuxnet.mem windows.lsadump

hashcat -m 1000 0d757ad173d3fc3419354d64c8ec /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt


Command line: To find the cmdline argument of a particular pid

python3 vol.py -f RogueProcessCase1.mem windows.cmdline | grep 5688

Netscan: It will show if this pid is associated with network connection or not. 

python3 vol.py -f RogueProcessCase1.mem windows.netscan | grep 5688

Process injection detection using malfind plugin:

python3 vol.py -f ProcessInjectionCase2.mem windows.malfind

Windows dlllist:

python3 vol.py -f DllInjectionCase3.mem windows.dlllist | grep Winsrvc

Windows dll dump:

python3 vol.py -f DllInjectionCase3.mem windows.dlllist --pid 1656 --dump

Domain name\User name: If we want to see a process running under the context of which user!!

python3 vol.py -f DllInjectionCase3.mem windows.sessions | grep -i "lsass.exe"

Install Nessus from docker

Docker installation. Give the below commands one by one. apt install docker-cli or apt install docker.io After the installation is complete, if you are inside wsl then give this command to start docker, because inside wsl systemd (systemctl) does not work: service docker start WSL troubleshooting : If the above command " service docker start " does not work then use below command: dockerd (It may not work if any previous docker process is running. It will show you pid of that process. Use this command to kill that process " kill -9 pid " and run dockerd command again) If " docker ps -a " giving error like " Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///run/podman/podman.sock. Is the docker daemon running? " This is because you may installed podman-docker package. If you remove the package still you will get this error but you should remove the package.

This tool is perfectly works on ubuntu 24 system. And I found it is not working properly in kali linux 24 version.   https://github.com/blackhatethicalhacking/SQLMutant/tree/main This tool need to use along with sqlmap tool. Showing this cheat sheet for kali or debian based system.  This tool actually analyze everything and give you the vulnerable url where sql injection is possible. You just need to use then sqlmap to exploit that.   Prerequisite: apt install pipx -y (for ubuntu) pip3 install uro or pipx install uro pipx ensurepath pipx completions  (not needed)  source ~/.bashrc   or restart system If go tool is not installed then run the below two commands first ( golang-go ) or follow this link to install go (https://mahimfiroj.blogspot.com/2024/12/installing-nuclei-in-kali.html) otherwise skip this step.   dpkg -l | grep packagename (Using this command you can check package is installed or not) apt install gccgo-go -y or apt install gol...

Installing nuclei and go tool in kali

 First you need to install go: https://go.dev/doc/install You need to download this go tool go1.23.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz by clicking the Download button.  Say you are root and download the tool in your Downloads directory. Now run the below command: tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.23.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz (if this cmd fails then you need to move this tool to /usr/local folder then run this cmd tar -xzf  go1.23.4.linux-amd64.tar.gz) Now add /usr/local/go/bin to the PATH environment variable. You can do this by adding the following line to your $HOME/.profile or /etc/profile (for a system-wide installation): export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin Now use the following command for immediate effect. Preventing you from log off then log back in: source $HOME/.profile go version (to check it is installed successfully) Install nuclei: go install -v github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei/v3/cmd/nuclei@latest or apt install nuclei nuclei -update-templates nuclei -u https://www.domain....
