Identifies and extracts information from bots and other malware. Information is returned in a readable json format. bamfdetect works by reading files into RAM, applying any applicable preprocessors, then applying Yara signatures from modules to determine which module it matches. After a match is located, the module can then extract the configuration from the file.

Currently, only a preprocess for UPX files is supported. This preprocessor writes the file data to a temporary file, then calls upx -d on the temporary file, and rereads the data from that temporary file.

Until I have time to write a guide for writing modules, please use existing modules as a means of writing your own.

• pefile (python module)
• yara (python module)
• rarfile
• upx (binary)
• pycrypto
• pbkdf2

PE files will be checked if they are UPX compressed before being scanned. If they are, they will be written to a temporary file, then decompressed with the UPX utility. Yara rules and extraction will then be applied to the resulting data.
