This project is for editing parts of memory for debugging/researching remotely.

Mainly for debugging on very old/hard to use systems where working on them is not an option.

It has two key components, executable which is the C code and python which controls the executable.

Use ipython for this to be much easier to use

import mem_editor

Then create a server object as so:

s = mem_editor.server(LISTEN_IP, LISTEN_PORT)

And make it start listening

s.wait_for_connection()

Next you can use the following commands:

Use

s.ps()

This will return an array with

(PID,Process name)

Use

s.attach(PID)

This will return an error code, 0 if it succeeded

Use

s.proc_maps()

This will return an array with a ProcMapEntry object

Use

s.read_mem(PID, START_ADDRESS, LENGTH)

This will read /proc/PID/mem in the given address. May need to attach for it to work on older kernels.

This will return a MemoryChunk object
