binwalk: Recursively extract files from a binary limiting the recursion depth to 2.
$ binwalk --extract --matryoshka --depth ${2} ${path-to-binary}
try on your machine
This command utilizes the binwalk tool to analyze and extract data from a binary file, specifically with the following options:
--extract: This option instructs binwalk to extract any discovered files or data from the binary file.--matryoshka: This option enables recursive scanning, meaning that binwalk will continue scanning extracted files to discover additional embedded data.--depth ${2}: This option sets the depth of recursive scanning to the value provided as the second argument (replaced by ${2}). The depth determines how many levels deep binwalk will scan for embedded data within extracted files.${path-to-binary}: This is the path to the binary file that will be analyzed and processed by binwalk.
Overall, this command runs binwalk on a binary file, extracting any found data and recursively scanning all extracted files up to a specified depth for further embedded data.
