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.
