sigfind − Find a binary signature in a file
sigfind [-b bsize ] [-o offset ] [-t template ] [-lV] [ hex_signature ] file
sigfind searches through a file and looks for the hex_signature at a given offset. This can be used to search for lost boot sectors, superblocks, and partition tables.
-b bsize
Specify the block size in which to search. The default is 512 and the value must be a multiple of 512.
-o offset
Specify the offset in a block in which the signature must exist. The default is 0.
-t template
Specify a template name that defines the signature value and offset. Run with no options to get a list of supported templates.
-l |
The signature is stored in little-endian ordering and must therefore be reversed. | ||
-V |
Display version |
[hex_signature]
The binary signature that you are searching for. It must be given in hexadecimal format. This argument must exist if −t is not used.
file |
Any raw data. |
sigfind −o 510 −l AA55 disk.dd
sigfind −t fat disk.dd
