HashFinder

HashFinder finds if a file in a directory and subdirectories full of the same file is different (modified) by using the targetfile hash or hash as input string. * Also will help you find a file matching a hash in a directory and subdirectories. This is useful for forensics and possibly finding interesting files like malware or other artifacts.

Sample Use Cases:

Find a file with a different hash from the input target file hash in a dir

hashfinder -diff -t tesfile.bin -dir testDir

Find a file with a matching hash to the hash of the input target file in a dir

hashfinder -t tesfile.bin -dir testDir

Find a file with a different hash from given input string hash in a dir

hashfinder -diff -i inputHashString -dir testDir

Find a file with a matching hash to the input string hash in a dir

hashfinder -t tesfile.bin -i inputHashString -dir testDir

Find a file with a matching MD5 hash to the input string MD5 hash in a dir

hashfinder -t tesfile.bin -m md5 -i inputHashString -dir testDir

HashFinder default hashing is sha2. Specify hash with -m cryptoType
