From 7de5891b393d710f43cb334bbe4f4321424413e6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Jones Date: Wed, 3 Feb 2010 17:59:03 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] hivex: Begin implementation of writing to hives. This implements hivex_node_set_values which is used to delete the (key, value) pairs at a node and optionally replace them with a new set. This also implements hivex_commit which is used to commit changes to hives back to disk. --- hivex/hivex.c | 384 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ hivex/hivex.h | 12 ++ hivex/hivex.pod | 125 ++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 521 insertions(+) diff --git a/hivex/hivex.c b/hivex/hivex.c index 44f2998..af36868 100644 --- a/hivex/hivex.c +++ b/hivex/hivex.c @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ #include #include "full-read.h" +#include "full-write.h" #ifndef O_CLOEXEC #define O_CLOEXEC 0 @@ -88,6 +89,10 @@ struct hive_h { /* Fields from the header, extracted from little-endianness hell. */ size_t rootoffs; /* Root key offset (always an nk-block). */ size_t endpages; /* Offset of end of pages. */ + + /* For writing. */ + size_t endblocks; /* Offset to next block allocation (0 + if not allocated anything yet). */ }; /* NB.

However you should be careful +and take back-ups, since Microsoft has never documented the hive +format, and so it is possible there are nuances in the +reverse-engineered format that we do not understand. + +To be able to modify a hive, you must pass the C +flag to C, otherwise any write operation will return with +errno C. + +The write operations shown below do not modify the on-disk file +immediately. You must call C in order to write the +changes to disk. If you call C without committing then +any writes are discarded. + +Hive files internally consist of a "memory dump" of binary blocks +(like the C heap), and some of these blocks can be unused. The hivex +library never reuses these unused blocks. Instead, to ensure +robustness in the face of the partially understood on-disk format, +hivex only allocates new blocks after the end of the file, and makes +minimal modifications to existing structures in the file to point to +these new blocks. This makes hivex slightly less disk-efficient than +it could be, but disk is cheap, and registry modifications tend to be +very small. + +When deleting nodes, it is possible that this library may leave +unreachable live blocks in the hive. This is because certain parts of +the hive disk format such as security (sk) records and big data (db) +records and classname fields are not well understood (and not +documented at all) and we play it safe by not attempting to modify +them.
