SecTools Podcast – Episode #41
Conversation with ONEKEY Team (Marton Illes, Quentin Kaiser, László Vaskó and Florian Lukavsky) about Unblob Project.
unblob is an accurate, fast, and easy-to-use extraction suite. It parses unknown binary blobs for more than 30 different archive, compression, and file-system formats, extracts their content recursively, and carves out unknown chunks that have not been accounted for.
unblob is free to use, licensed under MIT license, it has a command line interface and can be used as a Python library. This turns unblob into the perfect companion for extracting, analyzing, and reverse engineering firmware images.
unblob was originally developed and currently maintained by ONEKEY and it is used in production in ONEKEY analysis platform.
