Re: Hivex - Trailing garbage at the end of hive file
Is there a reason why a previous version of hivex ignored this condition
while more recent ones throw an error?
I do have some hive files that are failing (I'm yet to validate if they
are good or were corrupted some other way). I will do so and share my
findings
Thanks

...e files shown here
[root@ip-10-66-209-246 ~]# ls -als bads*
7664 -rw--w--w- 1 root root 7847936 Oct 1 21:51 badsys (SYSTEM hive file
after truncating trailing garbage)
7680 -rw------- 1 root root 7864320 Oct 1 21:21 badsysback (original
SYSTEM hive file)
16 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16384 Oct 1 21:55 badsysgarb (16K of truncated
garbage)
Looking into hive file, the last 16K is what hivex complains to be
trailing garbage. All of that 16K is zeroes.
