Find-AVSignature
function Find-AVSignature {
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Find-AVSignature
Locates single Byte AV signatures utilizing the same method as DSplit from "class101" on heapoverflow.com
Authors: Chris Campbell (@obscuresec) & Matt Graeber (@mattifestation)
License: BSD 3-Clause
.DESCRIPTION
A script to locate tiny AV signatures.
.PARAMETER Startbyte
Specifies the first byte to begin splitting on.
.PARAMETER Endbyte
Specifies the last byte to split on.
.PARAMETER Interval
Specifies the interval size to split with.
.PARAMETER Path
Specifies the path to the binary you want tested.
.PARAMETER OutPath
Optionally specifies the directory to write the binaries to.
.PARAMETER Force
Forces the script to continue without confirmation.
.EXAMPLE
PS C:\> Find-AVSignature -Startbyte 0 -Endbyte max -Interval 10000 -Path c:\test\exempt\nc.exe
PS C:\> Find-AVSignature -StartByte 10000 -EndByte 20000 -Interval 1000 -Path C:\test\exempt\nc.exe -OutPath c:\test\output\run2 -Verbose
PS C:\> Find-AVSignature -StartByte 16000 -EndByte 17000 -Interval 100 -Path C:\test\exempt\nc.exe -OutPath c:\test\output\run3 -Verbose
PS C:\> Find-AVSignature -StartByte 16800 -EndByte 16900 -Interval 10 -Path C:\test\exempt\nc.exe -OutPath c:\test\output\run4 -Verbose
PS C:\> Find-AVSignature -StartByte 16890 -EndByte 16900 -Interval 1 -Path C:\test\exempt\nc.exe -OutPath c:\test\output\run5 -Verbose
.NOTES
Several of the versions of "DSplit.exe" available on the internet contain malware.
