AVML is an X86_64 userland volatile memory acquisition tool written in Rust, intended to be deployed as a static binary.
AVML can be used to acquire memory without knowing the target OS distribution or kernel a priori. No on-target compilation or fingerprinting is needed.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Save recorded images to external locations via Azure Blob Store or HTTP PUT
- Automatic Retry (in case of network connection issues) with exponential backoff for uploading to Azure Blob Store
- Optional page level compression using Snappy.
- Uses LiME output format (when not using compression).
