similar to: [PATCH] hivexml: Do not print null input times

The infrastructure for modified-time reporting has been essentially unused. These changes report the registry time by treating the time fields as Windows filetime fields stored in little-Endian (which means they can be treated as a single 64-bit little-Endian integer). This patch adds the node_mtime function to the visitor API. Signed-off-by: Alex Nelson <ajnelson at cs.ucsc.edu> ---

The infrastructure for modified-time reporting has been essentially unused. These changes report the registry time by treating the time fields as Windows filetime fields stored in little-Endian (which means they can be treated as a single 64-bit little-Endian integer). Some of the code changes necessary include: * Exposing the hive_h structure in the hivex header file (via generator.ml) *

Some of the data in names and string values were being unsafely printed, causing some types of XML processors to fail (e.g. Python's Expat). This patch checks for printability of each character and outputs base64 with an encoding attribute for unsafe data. --- xml/hivexml.c | 75 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 files changed, 64 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-)

This patch adds value_byte_runs and node_byte_runs. Each byte run represents the offset and length of a data structure within the hive, one per node, and one or two per value depending on the length of the value data. These byte run functions also add additional data sanity checks as a hive is being parsed, mainly checking that a node address actually points to a node, and similarly for values.

All, Greetings. I am new to this mailing list. We have been working with XML for digital forensics. One of the areas that we wish to create a schema for is the representation of registry entries. We are interested in hivexml as a tool for extracting the registry as an XML representation. In our discussion with possible users, we have generally come to the conclusion that it is useful to

Greetings. I am new to this list. I am writing to you about hivexml. Richard Jones told me that he was considering abandoning this program. Instead, I am willing to take over maintenance of it. I am involved in computer forensics. I are in the midst of developing an XML standard to describe the Windows Registry. There are several programs that export the windows registry at XML. I have

This changeset adds byte run reporters for node and value metadata in the hivexml program. This location reporting required several new ABI functions, which required new ABI return types. One benefit to the byte run functions is additional sanity checks, which have revealed new data or parsing errors when run on M57 patents images. An example error: Image: Charlie, 2009-12-11, available at

Since some modules (`getopt', for example) may copy files into the build directory, `top_builddir/lib' is needed as well as `top_srcdir/lib'. -- GNU Gnulib manual, section 2.2 Initial import This fixes an in-tree build failure on a Debian/sid system (see below). hivexml could be built out-of-tree, but it turned out that due to a missing include path, in this case the

Reporting value data in attributes has two advantages: * The output of hivexml breaks Python expat processing if binary data makes it out. This was observed in Software hives. * Not having child text makes room for child elements.

Each byte run represents the offset and length of a data structure within the hive, one per node, and one or two per value depending on the length of the value data.
