A forensic analysis of the Tor Browser Bundle (version 2.3.25-6, 64-bit)
on OS X 10.8 showed that per-user temp files contain traces of the Tor
Browser Bundle.
OS X stores per-user temporary files and caches in /var/folders/. The
following files contain the path to the attached external drive, the path
to the Tor Browser Bundle on the Desktop, and the path to the Tor Browser
Bundle in the Trash:
*
/var/folders/fb/v5wqpgls029d8tp_pcjy0yth0000gn/C/com.apple.LaunchServices-036501.csstore
*
/var/folders/fb/v5wqpgls029d8tp_pcjy0yth0000gn/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/index.sqlite
*
/var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/C/com.apple.LaunchServices-0360.csstore
*
/var/folders/fb/v5wqpgls029d8tp_pcjy0yth0000gn/C/com.apple.QuickLook.thumbnailcache/thumbnails.data
These files also contain strings such as org.torproject.torbrowserbundle,
org.mozilla.torbrowser, torbrowser_en-us.app, torbrowser.app, net.vidalia-
project.vidalia, and vidalia.app. I have not been able to open the last
file, thumbnails.data but it might contain traces of the Tor Browser
Bundle and/or the attached external drive.
