Disk2vhd : Disk2VHD hangs at ca. 60%

Posted: 10 January 2017 at 7:10am

Hello and happy new year Smile

I have a bootcamp installation and from this I try to export the Windows7x64 to VHD. 3 Years ago this worked. Now the Disk2VHD process gets stucked at about 60%. I can just press cancel and kill the disk2vhd processes via taskmanager.
What could be the problem or can I somehow see logs or any indications for the problem?
In eventvwr I see that at sometime the security-SPP process started, could that be the problem?

Thanks in advance, best regards!

BgInfo : WinPE 10 64Bit & BGInfo v4.20 Application Error

After more testing I'm starting to think this may be somehow driver related.

The NIC driver being loaded is the Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter. If I enable networking by running WPEINIT upon boot up, and then follow that command with: X:\Windows\BgInfo\BGInfo.exe X:\Windows\BgInfo\BgInfo.bgi /timer:0 /accepteula then it is at this point BGInfo will generate the application error seen above. If, on the other hand, I do not enable WinPE networking, then BGInfo launches as expected. Again, this is only in the virtual world (Hyper-V and VMWare), physical machines work like a charm.

I'm not sure many (any) of you are running BGInfo in exactly this way, but if you do have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate them.

Hi,
you can stop the trace via File -> Capture Events. 
you can save the trace via File -> Save...

More common is to use the icons below. The 2nd and 3rd icon will be relevant.

I just ran into this same issue & figured out the answer. From the usage info: "You can use both include and exclude rules for the same tag, where exclude rules override include rules. Within a rule, filter conditions on the same field have OR behavior, whereas conditions on different fields have AND behavior."

So your rule only excludes ImageLoad events where both the Signature and Image conditions are met.

BTW, according to the comment, it sounds like you're attempting to log unsigned images that are being loaded. I believe the 'Signature' condition actually applies to the executable doing the loading, rather than to the binary being loaded.

(note that it would be cool if there were a way to do this)

No issue, but could a larger font be used?

Although browsers have zoom function, I think the default is too tiny.

I didn't write a private message because I think this might be open for discussion.

Actually, I stand corrected. It looks like the Signature condition for the ImageLoad event does apply to the image being loaded rather than the image doing the loading.

I'm looking for better documentation on this. Can somebody point me to a reference for the various GrantedAccess values? Also, what does it look like in this log data when something like Mimikatz opens the lsass process to extract password data?
Thanks

Is there any configuration required to enable the registry monitoring?
I don't see any command line switches, but what about if you're using a config file?

I can't find any documentation on it.

I'm testing on a workstation and it doesn't seem to be logging any of the new event IDs.

Hello.Faced with such a problem - Disk2VHP running on the remote machine (virtual Hyper-V) using bat file with the code:
psexec \\192.168.10.88 disk2vhd.exe * \\192.168.10.150\f$\Reserv_Vhd\Vps-blessed.vhd
turns to run the application itself, it can be seen in the task manager ... but the app does nothing. infinitely just hanging in there.
If I run a piece of code
disk2vhd.exe * \\192.168.10.150\f$\Reserv_Vhd\Vps-blessed.vhd
on the machine itself - everything works fine.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, I didn't see that info about AND behavior on different fields. Now I see that it works as described. But I need to exclude all ImageLoad events with signature from Microsoft or Windows and also I want to exclude all ImageLoad events where Image is *postgres.exe
My new config is:

        <ImageLoad onmatch="exclude">
            <!-- Log all images except if it's Microsoft or Windows signed -->
            <Signature condition="contains">Microsoft</Signature>
            <Signature condition="contains">Windows</Signature>
        </ImageLoad>
        <ImageLoad onmatch="exclude">
            <!-- Don't log postgresql activity (it's too huge) -->
            <Image condition="is">C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.4.2-1.1C\bin\postgres.exe</Image>
        </ImageLoad>

But now I get error
RuleEngine Error: Multiple rule filters of the same type

Miscellaneous Utilities : SYSMON Uninstall Issue

Posted: 12 January 2017 at 3:32pm

Hi,

i've been trying to upgrade from Sysmon 3 to the current version. Unfortunately I tried to install sysmon using sysmon -i config.xml before uninstalling the old version. sysmon complains and tells me to uninstall first.
But when I do this, my Windows 10 1607 Enterprise crashes with a BSOD (memory management error in symondrv.sys).
So now I can't uninstall and cannot install either :-(

I tried to unregister the service (sc delete sysmon), now sysmon -i says: "the driver sysmondrv is already registered".

How can I get out of this "loop"?

I've tested Sysmon 5.02 on a couple of machines - both of which seem to have stopped sending to our WEC's.
Is there anything different with the manifest etc that might cause this?

The machines go inactive on the collectors... I'm assuming because they don't send any events.

Please remember that X:\Windows is a protected OS folder. Installing software there is a big no-no. I would change that to the best practices and what MS would like you to use X:\Program Files\BGInfo. See if that helps. -WS

Miscellaneous Utilities : Sysmon Feature Requests

Posted: 13 January 2017 at 3:15pm

Hi Everyone,
I've just recently started looking into deploying sysmon in an enterprise. I'm really impressed with the included capabilities. However, it seems likely to me that issues could arise with version control for the sysmon binary and configuration.

If I may, I'd like to suggest a couple of fairly simple and easy to implement changes that might mitigate these issues:
  • When the sysmon service starts up, it should issue a log entry indicating the version of sysmon that is installed
  • When the sysmon service starts up, it should also issue a log entry with a rule dump or hash of the currently installed configuration

The above two changes will help significantly in large deployments, where updates to either the binary or the configuration might fail in individual cases, as well as highlighting instances where filtering rules may have been changed without authorization.

Another suggestion, somewhat more difficult to implement, would be to provide a method for configuring sysmon via Group Policy. It looks like Carlos Perez (DarkOperator) did some of this for sysmon 1.0 back in 2014, so it's doable (the config is apparently stored in a binary registry value named Rules, under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\SysmonDrv\Parameters). I've no idea exactly how much work it would be to update the custom .admx file he created, or exactly how well that worked in that version.


Thoughts?

BgInfo : SCCM Deployment - BgInfo

Subject: SCCM Deployment - BgInfo
Posted: 13 January 2017 at 3:19pm

I have successfully deployed BgInfo and its corresponding configuration file as part of our image. All data is displayed with the exception of the custom items that I created using a VBS script. The following files are copied over to the computer as part of the image;
  • BgInfo.exe
  • wstat.bgi
  • OnlyIPV4Address.vbs
  • OSArchitecture.vbs
  • OSInfo.vbs

I have used the following vbs script to install using a command line;

On Error Resume Next
 
'Create the c:\IT\BgInfo folder
If not objFSO.FolderExists("C:\IT\BgInfo") Then
 objFSO.CreateFolder("C:\IT\BgInfo")
End If
 
'Copy the bginfo files
intErrorCode = intErrorCode + objFSO.CopyFile(objShell.CurrentDirectory & "\Bginfo.exe", "C:\IT\BgInfo\")
intErrorCode = intErrorCode + objFSO.CopyFile(objShell.CurrentDirectory & "\OnlyIPv4Address.vbs", "C:\IT\BgInfo\")
intErrorCode = intErrorCode + objFSO.CopyFile(objShell.CurrentDirectory & "\OSArchitecture.vbs", "C:\IT\BgInfo\")
intErrorCode = intErrorCode + objFSO.CopyFile(objShell.CurrentDirectory & "\OSInfo.vbs", "C:\IT\BgInfo\")
intErrorCode = intErrorCode + objFSO.CopyFile(objShell.CurrentDirectory & "\wstat.bgi", "C:\IT\BgInfo\")
'Add the bginfo shortcut to the run registry key
intErrorCode = intErrorCode + objshell.RegWrite("HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\BgInfo", "C:\IT\BgInfo\Bginfo.exe /accepteula /ic:\IT\BgInfo\wstat.bgi /timer:0", "REG_SZ")
objShell.Run "C:\IT\BgInfo\Bginfo.exe /accepteula /ic:\IT\BgInfo\wstat.bgi /timer:0"
 
'Cleanup
Set objShell = Nothing
Set objFSO = Nothing
'return errorcode for install to SCCM
WScript.Quit(intErrorCode)
 
 
What am I missing?
