Sharing files

When using RF Swift for your assesment, you would like to retrieve the reports, logs, capture, or any file resulting the mission.

Let see with two examples how we can to it.

Binding directories

General

Sharing file between host and guest is possible throught the binding -b parameter when using run command.

First, create a directory you want to share with the guest on your host:

mkdir shared

Then you can simply use bindings when issuing the run command as follows:

rfswift run -i penthertz/rfswift:telecom -n supertelecom2 -b /home/user/shared:/root/shared
⚠️
Remember to always begin with host, and then guest like that: hostpath:guestpath. And separate each binding with commas.

The container summary will display you the bindings that are used:

⚠️
Some default profile bindings have been probably disabled. You can re-enable then with -b parameter of run command.

Running the command ls inside the container, you will see that a directory is present:

┌─[root@topms] - [~] - [Wed Sep 04, 13:46]
└─[$]> ls
config  scripts  shared

Let us go inside this shared directory and put a file inside:

┌─[root@topms] - [~] - [Wed Sep 04, 13:48]
└─[$]> cd shared 
┌─[root@topms] - [~/shared] - [Wed Sep 04, 13:49]
└─[$]> touch superfile

If you look on your host, the file will be present.

Binding devices

Example with proxmark3

By default, Proxmark3 tool already has /dev/ttyACM0 binded by default. But you have multiple devices, you can add them using -b when running a new container:

rfswift run -i penthertz/rfswift:rfid -n superrfid -b /dev/ttyACM1:/dev/ttyACM1

Example with Bluetooth HCI devices

For HCI devices, you can bind /dev/vchi as follows:

rfswift run -i penthertz/rfswift:rfid -n superrfid -b /dev/vchi:/dev/vchi

Example with Harogic devices

Sharing calibration data

Along with a Spectrum Analyzer and other stuff, Harogic provides a USB key where you can find a CalFile directory:

[Content of USB Harogic USB key]

To avoid any problem, let us copy this directory to the host side:

$ cp -R /media/fluxius/37B6-82D6/CalFile .
$ ls
build-windows.bat  CalFile  go  images  install.sh  LICENSE  README.md  rfswift  rules  run  shared

And share it with a container based on sdr_light images:

rfswift run -i penthertz/rfswift:sdr_light -n harogictest -b <host/path/of/CalFile>:/rftools/analysers/SAStudio4_x86_64_05_23_17_06/bin/CalFile

Then you can run sastudio inside the container, and you get your Harogic device running:

Harogic device running with SaStudio
Harogic device running with SaStudio

Running SDR++ with Harogic

To run SDR++ with Harogic devices, you will need only to copy the CalFile in /rftools/analysers/SAStudio4_x86_64_05_23_17_06/bin/CalFile inside your container to /usr/bin that way:

cp -R /rftools/analysers/SAStudio4_x86_64_05_23_17_06/bin/CalFile /usr/bin

And then you can start SDR++ with Harogic, and voilà!
