Find index entries in $INDEX_ALLOCATION attributes

screenshot

Timeline created using mactime.pl on the combined output of INDXRipper and fls.
See: sleuthkit

Motivation

$INDEX_ALLOCATION attributes are used by NTFS directories to store index entries for the files in the directory.

A file's index entry contains the following information:

  • File name
  • File size
  • Allocated size of file (size on disk)
  • A set of MACB timestamps

The slack space of these attributes may contain index entries of deleted files, even after thier MFT record was recycled. Finding these index entries may help you prove a file existed on a system.

How it works

INDXRipper scans the MFT for records of directories that have an $INDEX_ALLOCATION attribute. If it finds such a record, it searches the attribute for file references to this record. Since the index entries in the attribute represent children of the directory, the $FILE_NAME attributes in them must contain this file reference.

This way, It is able to find entries most other tools aren't.
Finding the full paths of directories is done by using the parent directory reference in $FILE_NAME attributes inside the MFT records.

Features and Details

These are pretty standard but here's a list anyways

  • Applies fixups for index records and mft records.
  • Supports $INDEX_ALLOCATION and $FILE_NAME attributes in extension records
  • Supports unicode filenames
  • Index entries from orphan directories are listed under "/$Orphan"
  • Provides bodyfile output for supertimeline creation
  • Works on live windows systems using the "\\.\" notation
  • All times outputted are UTC times

Installation

Python 3.8 or above is required.
Use the package manager pip to install construct.

pip install construct==2.10.56

Alternatively, you can use the Windows standalone executable.

Usage

# process dead disk image, get all index entries
python INDXRipper.py ntfs.part.001 output.csv

# process live system, slack space only, bodyfile output, append "C:" to all the paths
python INDXRipper.py -m C: --slack-only --bodyfile \\.\C: output.bodyfile

Limitations

Entries that are partially overitten may not be found. If they are found, though, the tool may give you false information

What this tool doesn't do

  • This tool doesn't process $INDEX_ROOT attributes. You won't see an output for every file on the volume
  • This tool doesn't carve $INDEX_ALLOCATION attributes. It won't find attributes that thier MFT entry was recycled.

Two predictive attributes (Speed and Angle) and one attribute target (Power)

Two predictive attributes (Speed and Angle) and one attribute target (Power). A container crane has the function of transporting containers from one point to another point. The difficulty of this task lies in the fact that the container is connected to the bridge crane by cables causing an opening angle while the container is being transported, interfering with the operation at high speeds due to oscillation that occurs at the end point, which could cause accidents.
