MSI Dump - a tool that analyzes malicious MSI installation packages, extracts files, streams, binary data and incorporates YARA scanner.
On Macro-enabled Office documents we can quickly use oletools mraptor to determine whether document is malicious. If we want to dissect it further, we could bring in oletools olevba or oledump.
To dissect malicious MSI files, so far we had only one, but reliable and trustworthy lessmsi. However, lessmsi doesn't implement features I was looking for:
quick triage
Binary data extraction
YARA scanning
Hence this is where msidump comes into play.
Here we can see that input MSI is injected with suspicious VBScript and contains numerous executables in it.
Now we want to take a closer look at this VBScript by extracting only that record.
