[Description]
From the repository:

MemProcFS is an easy and convenient way of viewing physical memory as files in a virtual file system.

Easy trivial point and click memory analysis without the need for complicated commandline arguments! Access memory content and artifacts via files in a mounted virtual file system or via a feature rich application library to include in your own projects!

It allows for performing forensics on Windows memory dumps, including features like a FUSE view of the full host systems and a timeline of all events.

[Dependencies]
Debian dependencies for compilation: make gcc pkg-config libusb-1.0 libusb-1.0-0-dev libfuse2 libfuse-dev lz4 liblz4-dev

FUSE support is required to run it.

From GitHub:

  • mount the memory dump file as default M:
    memprocfs.exe -device c:\temp\win10x64-dump.raw
  • mount the memory dump file as default M: with extra verbosity:
    memprocfs.exe -device c:\temp\win10x64-dump.raw -v
  • mount the memory dump file as default M: and start forensics mode:
    memprocfs.exe -device c:\temp\win10x64-dump.raw -forensic 1
  • mount the memory dump file as default M: and start forensics mode with a yara scan:
    memprocfs.exe -device c:\temp\win10x64-dump.raw -forensic 1 -forensic-yara-rules c:\yara\rules\windows_malware_index.yar
  • mount the memory dump file as /home/pi/mnt/ on Linux:
    ./memprocfs -mount /home/pi/linux -device /dumps/win10x64-dump.raw
  • mount the memory dump file as S:
    memprocfs.exe -mount s -device c:\temp\win10x64-dump.raw
  • mount live target memory, in read-only mode, with WinPMEM driver:
    memprocfs.exe -device pmem
  • mount live target memory, in read/write mode, with PCILeech FPGA memory acquisition device:
    memprocfs.exe -device fpga -memmap auto
  • mount a memory dump with a corresponding page files:
    memprocfs.exe -device unknown-x64-dump.raw -pagefile0 pagefile.sys -pagefile1 swapfile.sys
