Manual:

base64dump is a program that extracts and decodes base64 strings (or other encodings) found inside the provided file. base64dump looks for sequences of base64 characters (or other encodings) in the provided file and tries to decode them.

Other encodings than base64 can be used via option -e.

The result is displayed in a table like this (base64 encoding example):

ID  Size    Encoded          Decoded          MD5 decoded
--  ----    -------          -------          -----------
 1:  400728 TVqQAAMAAAAEAAAA MZ.............. d611941e0d24cb6b59c7b6b2add4fd8f
 2:      36 U2NyaXB0aW5nLkZp Scripting.FileSy a1c46f599699a442a5ae0454467f6d63
 3:       4 exel             {..              f1b1127ffb842243f9a03e67036d4bb6

The first column (ID) is the number (ID) assigned to the datastream by base64dump. This ID is used when selecting a datastream for further analysis with option -s.
The second column (Size) is the length of the base64 string.
The third column (Encoded) is the start of the base64 string.
The fourth column (Decoded) is the ASCII dump of the start of the decoded base64 string.
The fifth column (MD5 decoded) is the MD5 hash of the decoded base64 string.
By default, it's the MD5 hash, but this can be changed by setting environment variable DSS_DEFAULT_HASH_ALGORITHMS.
Like this: set DSS_DEFAULT_HASH_ALGORITHMS=sha256

By default, base64dump will search for base64 encoding strings. It's possible to specify other encodings by using option -e. This option takes the following values:
b64
bu
pu
hex
bx
ah
zxle
zxbe
zxc
dec
nb

bu stands for "backslash UNICODE" (\\u), it looks like this: \\u9090\\ueb77...
pu stands for "percent UNICODE" (%u), it looks like this: %u9090%ueb77...
hex stands for "hexadecimal", it looks like this: 6D6573736167652C...
bx stands for "backslash hexadecimal" (\\x), it looks like this: \\x90\\x90...
ah stands for "ampersand hexadecimal" (&H), it looks like this: &H90&H90...
zxle stands for "zero hexadecimal little-endian" (0x), it looks like this: 0x909090900xeb77...
zxbe stands for "zero hexadecimal big-endian" (0x), it looks like this: 0x909090900x77eb...
zxc stands for "zero hexadecimal comma" (0x), it looks like this: 0x90,0x90,0x90,0x90...
dec stands for "decimal", it looks like this: 80;75;3;4...
nb stands for "NETBIOS", it looks like this: ENFKOIAA

zxle and zxbe encoding looks for 1 to 8 hexadecimal characters after the prefix 0x. If the number of hexadecimal characters is uneven, a 0 (digit zero) will be prefixed to have an even number of hexadecimal digits.

Select a datastream for further analysis with option -s followed by the ID number of the datastream (or a for all). For example -s 2:

Info:
 MD5: d611941e0d24cb6b59c7b6b2add4fd8f
 Filesize: 300544
 Entropy: 6.900531
 Unique bytes: 256 (100.00%)
 Magic HEX: 4d5a9000
 Magic ASCII: MZ..
 Null bytes: 41139
 Control bytes: 38024
 Whitespace bytes: 9369
 Printable bytes: 122967
 High bytes: 89045

This displays information for the datastream, like the entropy of the datastream.

The selected stream can be dumped (-d), hexdumped (-x), ASCII dumped (-a) or dump the strings (-S). Use the dump option (-d) to extract the stream and save it to disk (with file redirection >) or to pipe it (|) into the next command.
If the dump needs to be processed by a string codec, like utf16, use option -t instead of -d and provide the codec:
C:\Demo>base64dump.py -s 1 -t utf16 test.bin
You can also provide a Python string expression, like .decode('utf16').encode('utf8').

Here is an example of an ascii dump (-s 2 -a):

00000000: 53 63 72 69 70 74 69 6E 67 2E 46 69 6C 65 53 79  Scripting.FileSy
00000010: 73 74 65 6D 4F 62 6A 65 63 74                    stemObject

You can also specify the minimum length of the decoded base64 datastream with option -n.

With option -w (ignorewhitespace), you can instruct base64dump to ignore all whitespace characters. So for example if the base64 text is split into lines, then you will get one base64 stream.
With option -z (ignorenullbytes), you can instruct base64dump to ignore all leading 0x00 bytes. This can help to decode UNICODE text.
With option -i (ignore), you can instruct base64dump to ignore all characters you provide as a value to option -i. For example, with -i , you can parse strings like 0x44332211,0x88776655,... with encoding zxle by ignoring the separator character ,.
Option -I is like option -i, except that you specify the characters to ignore as an hexadecimal string. For example, -I 2226 will ignore characters " (22) and & (26).

It's also possible to try all encodings: all
Example:
base64dump.py -e all -n 80 sample.vir

The list is sorted by increasing size.

Identical decoded content can be made unique with option -u.

base64dump can scan the content of the datastreams with YARA rules (the YARA Python module must be installed). You provide the YARA rules with option -y. You can provide one file with YARA rules, an at-file (@file containing the filenames of the YARA files) or a directory. In case of a directory, all files inside the directory are read as YARA files. Or you can provide the YARA rule with the option value if it starts with # (literal), #s# (string), #q# (quote), #h# (hexadecimal) or #b# (base64). Example: -y "#rule demo {strings: $a=\"demo\" condition: $a}"
Using #s#demo will instruct base64dump to generate a rule to search for string demo (rule string {strings: $a = "demo" ascii wide nocase condition: $a) and use that rule.
All datastreams are scanned with the provided YARA rules, you can not use option -s to select an individual datastream.

Example:
C:\Demo>base64dump.py -y contains_pe_file.yara malware.zip
Enc  Size    Encoded          Decoded          MD5 decoded
---  ----    -------          -------          -----------
 ah:  256000 &H4d&H5a&H90&H00 MZ.............. 5cd40560a53fda5b32c35adfcdfca3e1
     YARA rule: Contains_PE_File

In this example, you use YARA rule contains_pe_file.yara to find PE files (executables) in the decoded data.

If you want more information about what was detected by the YARA rule, use option --yarastrings like in this example:
C:\Demo>base64dump.py -y contains_pe_file.yara --yarastrings malware.zip
Enc  Size    Encoded          Decoded          MD5 decoded
---  ----    -------          -------          -----------
 ah:  256000 &H4d&H5a&H90&H00 MZ.............. 5cd40560a53fda5b32c35adfcdfca3e1
     YARA rule: Contains_PE_File
     000000 $a:
      4d5a
      'MZ'

YARA rule contains_pe_file detects PE files by finding string MZ followed by string PE at the correct offset (AddressOfNewExeHeader).
The rule looks like this:
rule Contains_PE_File
{
    meta:
        author = "Didier Stevens (https://DidierStevens.com)"
        description = "Detect a PE file inside a byte sequence"
        method = "Find string MZ followed by string PE at the correct offset (AddressOfNewExeHeader)"
    strings:
        $a = "MZ"
    condition:
        for any i in (1..#a): (uint32(@a[i] + uint32(@a[i] + 0x3C)) == 0x00004550)
}

When looking for traces of Windows executable code (PE files, shellcode, ...) with YARA rules, one must take into account the fact that the executable code might have been encoded (for example via XOR and a key) to evade detection.
To deal with this possibility, base64dump supports decoders. A decoder is a type of plugin, that will bruteforce a type of encoding on each datastream. For example, decoder_xor1 will encode each datastream via XOR and a key of 1 byte. So effectively, 256 different encodings of the datastream will be scanned by the YARA rules. 256 encodings because: XOR key 0x00, XOR key 0x01, XOR key 0x02, ..., XOR key 0xFF
Here is an example:
C:\Demo>base64dump.py -y contains_pe_file.yara -D decoder_xor1 malware.zip
Enc  Size    Encoded          Decoded          MD5 decoded
---  ----    -------          -------          -----------
 ah:  256000 &H4d&H5a&H90&H00 MZ.............. 5cd40560a53fda5b32c35adfcdfca3e1
     YARA rule (decoder: XOR 1 byte key 0x14): Contains_PE_File
     000000 $a:
      4d5a
      'MZ'

You can specify decoders in exactly the same way as plugins, for example specifying more than one decoder separated by a comma ,.
If decoders are located in a different directory, you could specify it with the --decoderdir option.
Some decoders take options, to be provided with option --decoderoptions.

Some malformed encodings, like BASE64 strings with a number of digits that is not a multiple of 4, will not be detected by base64dump.py.
Such strings are detected using regular expressions, but are then discarded because they don't have the correct length (length of BASE64 strings must be a multiple of 4, length os hexadecimal strings must be a multiple of 2).
If you still need to decode such strings, you can use option -p (--process). This option allows you to specify a Python function (that will be evaluated, so use only trusted input for this option) to modify the detected string before it is decoded).
You can use builtin function L4 (Length 4) for example: function L4 takes a string as input and truncates it if necessary, by removing characters from the end so that the length becomes a multiple of 4.
Example:
C:\Demo>base64dump.py -p L4 malformed_base64.vir

You can also provide your own function, for example via a lambda expression:
C:\Demo>base64dump.py -p "lambda x: x[:-1]" malformed_base64.vir

In this example, the lambda expression will remove one character from the end of the detected string.

With option -T (--headtail), output can be truncated to the first 10 lines and last 10 lines of output.

With option --jsonoutput base64dump.py will output selected content as a JSON object that can be piped into other tools that support this JSON format.

Option -c (--cut) allows for the partial selection of a datastream. Use this option to "cut out" part of the datastream.
The --cut option takes an argument to specify which section of bytes to select from the datastream. This argument is composed of 2 terms separated by a colon (:), like this:
termA:termB
termA and termB can be:
- nothing (an empty string)
- a positive decimal number; example: 10
- an hexadecimal number (to be preceded by 0x); example: 0x10
- a case sensitive string to search for (surrounded by square brackets and single quotes); example: ['MZ']
- an hexadecimal string to search for (surrounded by square brackets); example: [d0cf11e0]
If termA is nothing, then the cut section of bytes starts with the byte at position 0.
If termA is a number, then the cut section of bytes starts with the byte at the position given by the number (first byte has index 0).
If termA is a string to search for, then the cut section of bytes starts with the byte at the position where the string is first found. If the string is not found, the cut is empty (0 bytes).
If termB is nothing, then the cut section of bytes ends with the last byte.
If termB is a number, then the cut section of bytes ends with the byte at the position given by the number (first byte has index 0).
When termB is a number, it can have suffix letter l. This indicates that the number is a length (number of bytes), and not a position.
termB can also be a negative number (decimal or hexademical): in that case the position is counted from the end of the file. For example, :-5 selects the complete file except the last 5 bytes.
If termB is a string to search for, then the cut section of bytes ends with the last byte at the position where the string is first found. If the string is not found, the cut is empty (0 bytes).
No checks are made to assure that the position specified by termA is lower than the position specified by termB. This is left up to the user.
Search string expressions (ASCII and hexadecimal) can be followed by an instance (a number equal to 1 or greater) to indicate which instance needs to be taken. For example, ['ABC']2 will search for the second instance of string 'ABC'. If this instance is not found, then nothing is selected.
Search string expressions (ASCII and hexadecimal) can be followed by an offset (+ or - a number) to add (or substract) an offset to the found instance. For example, ['ABC']+3 will search for the first instance of string 'ABC' and then select the bytes after ABC (+ 3).
Finally, search string expressions (ASCII and hexadecimal) can be followed by an instance and an offset.
Examples:
This argument can be used to dump the first 256 bytes of a PE file located inside the datastream: ['MZ']:0x100l
This argument can be used to dump the OLE file located inside the datastream: [d0cf11e0]:
When this option is not used, the complete datastream is selected.
