PSDiff

PSDiff a Volatility 3 plugin to compare process instances and detect anomalies.

This repository contains a Volatility 3 plugin that scans processes extracted from a Windows memory image, groups processes by name, and compares specific process instances to detect suspicious differences such as differing parent processes, thread-count discrepancies, or session mismatches.


Features

  • Scan all processes and report process names with multiple instances and differences.
  • Compare two specific processes (by name or PID).
  • Analyze a single process (list instances and compare if multiple instances exist).
  • Reports differences in parent process, thread count, and session ID.

Requirements

  • Python 3.8+
  • Volatility 3 (tested with Volatility 3.x)
  • The plugin expects to be used within the Volatility 3 framework and requires a Windows kernel module when running.
