fileless.py – Advanced Fileless Malware Hunter (Volatility 3 Plugin)

fileless.py is a dedicated Volatility 3 plugin built for advanced forensic analysis of Windows memory dumps.
Its primary focus is detecting and reporting threats related to fileless malware, in-memory injection, and other stealthy attack techniques that evade traditional disk-based antivirus detection.

Key Capabilities

Fileless Threat Detection

Scans memory artifacts to uncover indicators of fileless attacks, including:

• Reflective DLL loading and process injection
• In-memory PowerShell and script-based payloads
• Heavily obfuscated or encoded commands

Enhanced PowerShell Analysis

Employs a comprehensive set of regular expressions (POWERSHELL_PATTERNS) to detect malicious PowerShell behavior, such as:

• Use of -encodedcommand with high-entropy or base64-encoded strings
• Invocation of Invoke-Expression (IEX) for dynamic code execution
• Network payload retrieval via .Net.WebClient or DownloadString calls

In-Memory Artifact Scanning

Leverages Volatility 3’s core analysis modules (pslist, vadinfo, handles) to identify suspicious or anomalous memory regions:

• Detection of memory hollowing and unsigned code injection
• Correlation of Virtual Address Descriptors (VADs) with process metadata
• Identification of mismatched or hidden modules

Structured Forensic Reporting

Automatically generates a detailed TreeGrid-style report that presents findings in a structured and analyst-friendly format for triage and incident response.

Reporting and Triage

The plugin provides automated scoring and classification of detected threats to accelerate analysis:

Report Column	Description
Detection Type	Category of the threat (e.g., PowerShell Encoded Command, Suspicious Memory Region)
Severity	Risk rating to prioritize analysis (Critical, High, Medium)
MITRE ATT&CK	Maps identified behaviors to MITRE ATT&CK techniques for adversary tracking and intelligence correlation
Indicator	The exact pattern, command, or string that triggered the detection (e.g., base64-encoded command string)

this screams AI and also the plugin is basically malfind with additional basic YARA malware families .-.
