Go Memory Dumper

This is a simple tool to dump the memory of a running process. Into a file. It is written in Go and uses the cgo (C code in Go) to interact with the system API.

This tool was created as a practice to learn how to interact with the system API using Go and C. Also will be add it to my go-shield tool in the near future (when will work for Linux, Windows and Mac).

Requirements

• Go 1.16 or higher
• GCC or Clang
• Linux System

Usage

go run main.go <pid>

Example

go run main.go 1234

For what?

This tool is useful for debugging purposes. It can be used to dump the memory of a running process and analyze it later. It can be used to debug a running process, to analyze the memory of a process, to analyze the memory of a process that is running on a remote machine, etc.

Use strings, hexdump, or any other tool to analyze the memory dump.

strings dump.bin | grep -i password
