MAGNET WEEKLY CTF #2

Once again, the question referred to an Android image.
 
A Google search revealed a list of Android apps
that include picture-in-picture capability:


...one of which is Google Chrome.
 
Most recently used apps can be found
using an Autopsy module...
 

...in the Extracted Content section:



The most recently visited domain appears to be
malliesae.com (using Chrome).
 
 
 
SUCCESS!

MAGNET WEEKLY CTF #9     This week begins our forensic analysis of information resident in the RAM of a Windows host when the memory was captured. The acquisition software created a .mem file that I  examined using Volatility as well as MemProcFS. MemProcFS allows the investigator to view the memory dump files in a virtual file system, allowing the files to be viewed using Windows Explorer. Part 1involves a conversation:       My first step was to look at the image with Volatility, so I needed to get the image info... ...then use pslist , to get an idea of which processes were running. Of the many options, two stood out to me as potentially containing text – slack and WINWORD:       I dumped the suspect processes to files...     ...ran strings | grep "password" on all of them, and discovered this:       Success!     On to Part 2:       At first, despite my suspicions at the solution was as simple as creating an MD5 hash of my 3180.dmp file, I tried it because, after all, th

  MAGNET WEEKLY CTF #4 This is the final question that refers to the Android image.   Thanks to the elephant-sized hint, I'll be narrowing my search to:   and search for a GUID, which will be in this format:   (according to Kalid Azad )   Following the philosophy of @CiofecaForensic and team NoToolsJustRight, I'm still using only open-source tools.   (Primarily because I believe that the best way to get the most complete answer is to know what is going on under the hood, but also because I'm a student without LEO or corporate access to the commercial toys.)   Starting with the awesome (especially in dark mode) ALEAPP from @AlexisBrignoni, I discovered this phishy item under recent activity : That looks like the answer, but is Effective_UID the same as the GUID?   I'm assuming it's related somehow, but the format is wrong. 10239 is not the enormous 128-bit number I'm looking for.   There's probably some way to view the GUID in ALEAPP, but it will require fu

  MAGNET WEEKLY CTF #5 This is the first question that refers to  a Linux image shared by Ali Hadi, Assistant Professor at Vermont's Champlain College .     The question refers to the original filename of a block ID. The relationship between filenames and block ID's in Linux was not readily apparent to me, even after a Google search which led me to a SANS presentation by Kevvie Fowler which involved using hdfs terminal commands (only viable after loading Hadoop tools on Linux) and perfoming a "checkpoint" to ensure accurate results...maybe there's an easier way. My next stop after loading the file HDFS-MASTER.E01 into Autopsy was to check   /home/hadoop/.bash_history   to see if a file had been copied and enter the original filename as the flag. mapred-site.xml.template was not the answer, however.   Fortunately, I had multiple tries at the answer this week. A keyword search in Autopsy for the block ID: Turned up this related file: Which was not the answer, eit
