Description

Currently the username of the machine that runs androidqf is shown in a few files. I could identify:

  • aquisition.json
  • command.log
  • hashes.csv

we could redact it so it's easier to share the extraction without leaking data about the device that did the extraction

Research direction

Start by tracing how aquisition.json, command.log, and hashes.csv are generated, then identify where the machine username enters each file. Verify that shared extraction output no longer exposes the username in any of the three named files.
