We are happy to announce support for the F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) format. The new F2FS Format package lets you browse and extract files from F2FS images directly within the application.
F2FS is a log-structured file system designed by Samsung for NAND flash storage, merged into the Linux kernel in version 3.8. It is the default user-data file system on many Android devices and is also used on Chrome OS, Tizen, and other flash-based storage systems. F2FS employs a Node Address Table (NAT) for efficient inode resolution, multi-level hash-based directories, and supports inline data for small files, extended attributes, and transparent compression (LZO, LZ4, ZSTD). Having native support in Cerbero Suite means analysts can inspect Android user-data partitions, IoT firmware, and flash storage images encountered during security research, vulnerability assessment, or forensic investigations without needing external tools.
