MXtract : Memory Extractor & Analyzer 2019

MXtract is an opensource linux based tool that analyzes and dumps memory. It is developed as an offensive pentration testing tool, its primary purpose is to scan memory for private keys, ips, and passwords using regexes.

Remember, your results are only as good as your regexes.

Why dump directly from memory?

In most linux environments users can access the memory of processes, this allows attackers to harvest credentials, private keys, or anything that isnt suppose to be seen but is being processed by a program in clear text.
