enumhandles_BOF

This BOF can be used to identify processes that hold handles to a given file. This can be useful to identify which process is locking a file on disk.

Usage

Limitations

I have found that x86 beacons will crash sometimes when attempting to enumerate handles associated with an x64 image. For example, running enumhandles c:\windows\sysnative\svchost.exe may cause a crash.
