AVML – Acquire Volatile Memory for Linux

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).
