Data Carving

Binwalk can carve sections of a file to disk using the --carve command line argument:

binwalk --carve test.bin

This works similarly to the deprecated --dd='.*' command line argument, except that it will generate separate files for both known and unknown sections of an input file.

[!TIP] The --carve argument can be used with or without the --extract argument.
