Post by UZQueen »

Is there a way for the content:<text> functionto skip the current file and start searching for the next file when the appropriate content is searched?

Do you mean stop searching content for the current file as soon as the matching text is found?

It's possible if you use the binary: search modifier, for example:

binary:content:"my content search"

binary: will treat your search and content as a byte stream.

Thanks, it's running fine now, but I've run into two new issues
1.hex:binarycontent: Is there a way to retrieve only the first 1MB of the file?
2.hex:binarycontent: Is there a way to match both of the following texts without using regex:?

Please try content-max-size:

For example:

content-max-size:1048576 hex:binarycontent:0001020304



2.hex:binarycontent: Is there a way to match both of the following texts without using regex:?
hex:binarycontent:6162630D0A616463


newline:
0x0d = \r
0x0a = \n

-or-

hex:binarycontent:616263 hex:binarycontent:616463


space = AND
