The MemProcFS crate contains a wrapper API around the MemProcFS physical
memory analysis framework. The native
libray in the form of vmm.dll
or vmm.so
must be downloaded or compiled
in order to make use of the memprocfs rust crate.
The aim of the MemProcFS rust crate and rust API is to make MemProcFS usage as easy and smooth as possible on Rust! Please let me know what you think or if you have any improvement suggestions!
Physical memory analysis may take place on memory dump files for forensic purposes. Analysis may also take place on live memory - either captured by using PCILeech PCIe DMA devices or by using a driver - such as WinPMEM, LiveCloudKd, VMware or similar.
The base of the MemProcFS API is the Vmm
struct. Once the native vmm
has been initialized it's possible to retrieve processes in the form of
the VmmProcess
struct. Using the Vmm
and VmmProcess
it's
possible to undertake a wide range of actions - such as reading/writing
memory or retrieve various information.
Access the VFS (Virtual File System) via the Rust API to get access to the full range of built-in and external plugins.
Read and write memory by using the methods mem_read()
,
mem_read_ex()
, mem_write()
of the Vmm
and VmmProcess
structs.
Efficiently read and write memory using the VmmScatterMemory
struct.
The MemProcFS rust API supports creation of native MemProcFS plugins in
the form of a library .dll
or .so
for the more advanced user.
Rust
let mut args = Vec::new();
args.push("-printf");
args.push("-device");
args.push("-FPGA");
let vmm = Vmm::new("/home/user/memprocfs/vmm.so", &args)?
if let Ok(process_all) = vmm.process_list() {
for process in &*process_all {
println!("{} : {}", process.pid, process.info()?.name);
}
}

MemProcFS and its rust API is open source under the AGPL-3.0 license.
PCILeech and MemProcFS is free and open source!
I put a lot of time and energy into PCILeech and MemProcFS and related research to make this happen. Some aspects of the projects relate to hardware and I put quite some money into my projects and related research. If you think PCILeech and/or MemProcFS are awesome tools and/or if you had a use for them it's now possible to contribute by becoming a sponsor!
If you like what I've created with PCIleech and MemProcFS with regards to DMA, Memory Analysis and Memory Forensics and would like to give something back to support future development please consider becoming a sponsor at: https://github.com/sponsors/ufrisk
