Specifically, it is designed for identifying +files and code embedded inside of firmware images. Binwalk uses the +libmagic library, so it is compatible with magic signatures created +for the Unix file utility. + +Binwalk also includes a custom magic signature file which contains +improved signatures for files that are commonly found in firmware +images such as compressed/archived files, firmware headers, Linux +kernels, bootloaders, filesystems, etc. +More details are available at: + +WWW: http://code.google.com/p/binwalk/ |
