ManTech Memory DD (MDD) (http://www.mantech.com/msma/MDD.asp) is released under GPL by Mantech International. MDD is capable of copying the complete contents of memory on the following Microsoft Operating Systems: Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2008 Server.

After downloading MDD from the Mantech site you need to run the program at the command line.

MDD Command Line Usage:

mdd -o OUTPUTFILENAME

Step by Step Example :

First of all, run MDD to dump the memory of the machine. The output file , would be an image of the physical memory, and MDD is often used to only dump the memory.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\MDD>mdd_1.3.exe -o dump.dd

-> mdd

Next, we will need to analyze the “memory image” – dump.dd .

For this, we will be using Using Volatility (1.3_Beta), Volatility Plugin from Moyix, and a Windows Hash/Password Finder (SamInside) to identify the passwords.

1. First of all, most of these scripts are written in python, and as such, you would need to download and install a python interpreter (Active Python ).

2. Download Volatility (1.3_Beta) , extract it to a folder.

3. Download Volatility Plugin from Moyix, extract it, and copy its content into the Volatility folder, overwriting your existing forensics, memory_objects, and memory_plugins folders.

4. Download pyCrypto and install it.

5. Copy the dump.dd file (output file of MDD) into the Volatility folder.

6. Run hivescan from volatility to get the hive offsets. Execute the following:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Volatility-1.3_Beta> python volatility hivescan -f dump.dd

7. Next, Run hivelist from volatility with the first hivescan offset, from previous output. Execute the following:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Volatility-1.3_Beta>python volatility hivelist -f dump.dd -o 0×2b0e758

8. Now that we have the address locations, Pay attention to SAM & SYSTEM addresses. Find Password Hash using this command : python volatility hashdump -f dump.dd -y System Hive Offset -s SAM Hive Offset.

python volatility hashdump -f dump.dd -y 0xe1036758 -s 0xe1741b60

Now you can just open this as a pwdump file in SamInside and crack it !
