Summary	0008286: unblob extractor
Description	Name: unblob Version: 23.5.5 Homepage: https://unblob.org Download: https://github.com/onekey-sec/unblob/ Author: ONEKEY Licence: MIT Description: unblob is an accurate, fast, and easy-to-use extraction suite. It parses unknown binary blobs for more than 30 different archive, compression, and file-system formats, extracts their content recursively, and carves out unknown chunks that have not been accounted for. unblob is free to use, licensed under MIT license, it has a command line interface and can be used as a Python library. This turns unblob into the perfect companion for extracting, analyzing, and reverse engineering firmware images. Dependencies: for full coverage, the tool requires these third party command-line tools to be present: 7z, debugfs, lz4, lziprecover, lzop, sasquatch, sasquatch-v4be, simg2img, unar, zstd. Similar tools: binwalk Activity: the project started 18 months ago and is still actively maintained. How to install: you can install it using pip with "pip install --user unblob" How to use: see https://unblob.org/guide/ Packaged: not yet packaged for Debian, but willing to work on it if it speeds up adoption by Kali maintainers.

sbrun 2023-05-16 14:22 manager ~0017944	FTR I think we need to package 9 Python modules for this package. 6 of them seem to be quite easy to package. The other 3 are arch dependent and will require more work to package and build them in Kali.

qkaiser_ok 2023-05-16 18:28 reporter ~0017945	Can you provide an exact list of the packages you mentioned (6 quite easy to package, 3 that are arch dependent) ?

sbrun 2023-06-13 09:31 manager ~0018178	(Sorry I missed your request about the missing packages) I packaged the missing deps: dissect.cstruct, jefferson ( with deps cstruct and lzallright), lief, pltext, pyperscan, ubi-reader and unblob-native They are all available in kali-rolling

sbrun 2023-06-13 09:32 manager ~0018179	unblob version 23.5.9-0kali2 is available in kali-dev
