This repo contains all the sources (including setup scripts), you need to get difuze up and running.
Ubuntu >= 14.04.5 LTS
Refer the readme
As explained in our paper, There are two main components of difuze: Interface Recovery and Fuzzing Engine
The Interface recovery mechanism is based on LLVM analysis passes. Every step of interface recovery are written as individual passes. Follow the below instructions on how to get the Interface Recovery up and running.
This step takes care of installing LLVM and c2xml:
First, make sure that you have libxml (required for c2xml):
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
sudo pip install lxml
Next, We have created a single script, which downloads and builds all the required tools.
cd helper_scripts
python setup_difuze.py --help
usage: setup_difuze.py [-h] [-b TARGET_BRANCH] [-o OUTPUT_FOLDER]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-b TARGET_BRANCH Branch (i.e. version) of the LLVM to setup. Default:
release_38 e.g., release_38
-o OUTPUT_FOLDER Folder where everything needs to be setup.
Example:
python setup_difuze.py -o difuze_deps
To complete the setup you also need modifications to your local PATH environment variable. The setup script will give you exact changes you need to do.
This depends on the successful completion of Setup. We have a single script that builds everything, you are welcome.
cd InterfaceHandlers
./build.sh
This depends on the successful completion of Build. To run the Interface Recovery components on kernel drivers, we need to first the drivers into llvm bitcode.
First, we need to have a buildable kernel. Which means you should be able to compile the kernel using regular build setup. i.e., make.
We first capture the output of make command, from this output we extract the exact compilation command.
- Install Bear
- Run make using Bear:
Example:
bear make <all the options to make>bear make -j8
This will generate a file compile_commands.json in the current directory.
Just pass V=1 and redirect the output to the file.
Example:
make V=1 O=out ARCH=arm64 > makeout.txt 2>&1
NOTE: DO NOT USE MULTIPLE PROCESSES i.e., -j. Running in multi-processing mode will mess up the output file as multiple process try to write to the output file.
That's it. Next, in the following step our script takes the generated makeout.txt and run the Interface Recovery on all the recognized drivers.
All the various steps of Interface Recovery are wrapped in a single script helper_scripts/run_all.py
How to run:
cd helper_scripts
python run_all.py --help
usage: run_all.py [-h] [-l LLVM_BC_OUT] [-a CHIPSET_NUM] [-m MAKEOUT]
[-c COMPJSON] [-g COMPILER_NAME] [-n ARCH_NUM] [-o OUT]
[-k KERNEL_SRC_DIR] [-isclang] [-clangp CLANG_PATH]
[-llvmlinkp LLVMLINK_PATH] [-skb] [-skl] [-skp] [-skP]
[-ske] [-skI] [-ski] [-skv] [-skd] [-f IOCTL_FINDER_OUT]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-l LLVM_BC_OUT Destination directory where all the generated bitcode
files should be stored.
-a CHIPSET_NUM Chipset number. Valid chipset numbers are:
1(mediatek)|2(qualcomm)|3(huawei)|4(samsung)
-m MAKEOUT Path to the makeout.txt file.
-c COMPJSON Path to the compile_commands_json generated by Bear.
-g COMPILER_NAME Name of the compiler used in the makeout.txt, This is
needed to filter out compilation commands. Ex: aarch64
-linux-android-gcc
-n ARCH_NUM Destination architecture, 32 bit (1) or 64 bit (2).
-o OUT Path to the out folder. This is the folder, which
could be used as output directory during compiling
some kernels.
-k KERNEL_SRC_DIR Base directory of the kernel sources.
-isclang flag to indicate that clang was used to built the
kernel
-clangp CLANG_PATH Absolute path to the clang binary (if not provided,
the one available in the path will be used)
-llvmlinkp LLVMLINK_PATH
Absolute path to the llvm-link binary (if not
provided, the one available in the path will be used)
-skb Skip LLVM Build (default: not skipped).
-skl Skip Dr Linker (default: not skipped).
-skp Skip Parsing Headers (default: not skipped).
-skP Skip Generating Preprocessed files (default: not
skipped).
-ske Skip Entry point identification (default: not
skipped).
-skI Skip Generate Includes (default: not skipped).
-ski Skip IoctlCmdParser run (default: not skipped).
-skv Skip V4L2 ioctl processing (default: not skipped).
-skd Skip Device name finder (default: not skipped).
-f IOCTL_FINDER_OUT Path to the output folder where the ioctl command
finder output should be stored.
The script builds, links and runs Interface Recovery on all the recognized drivers, as such it might take considerable time(45 min-90 min).
The above script performs following tasks in a multiprocessor mode to make use of all CPU cores:
- Enabled by default.
All the bitcode files generated will be placed in the folder provided to the argument -l.
This step takes considerable time, depending on the number of cores you have.
So, if you had already done this step, You can skip this step by passing -skb.
- Enabled by default
This performs linking, it goes through all the bitcode files and identifies the related bitcode files that need to be linked and links them (using llvm-link) in to a consolidated bitcode file (which will be stored along side corresponding bitcode file).
Similar to the above step, you can skip this step by passing -skl.
- Enabled by default.
This step looks for the entry point declarations in the header files and stores their configuration in the file: hdr_file_config.txt under LLVM build directory.
To skip: -skp
- Enabled by default
This step identifies all the entry points across all the driver consolidated bitcode files.
The output will be stored in file: entry_point_out.txt under LLVM build directory.
Example of contents in the file entry_point_out.txt:
IOCTL:msm_lsm_ioctl:/home/difuze/kernels/pixel/msm/sound/soc/msm/qdsp6v2/msm-lsm-client.c:msm_lsm_ioctl.txt:/home/difuze/pixel/llvm_out/sound/soc/msm/qdsp6v2/llvm_link_final/final_to_check.bc
IOCTL:msm_pcm_ioctl:/home/difuze/kernels/pixel/msm/sound/soc/msm/qdsp6v2/msm-pcm-lpa-v2.c:msm_pcm_ioctl.txt:/home/difuze/pixel/llvm_out/sound/soc/msm/qdsp6v2/llvm_link_final/final_to_check.bc
To skip: -ske
- Enabled by default.
This step will run the main Interface Recovery component (IoctlCmdParser) on all the entry points in the file entry_point_out.txt. The output for each entry point will be stored in the folder provided for option -f.
To skip: -ski
Now, we will show an example from the point where you have kernel sources to the point of getting Interface Recovery results.
We have uploaded a mediatek kernel 33.2.A.3.123.tar.bz2. First download and extract the above file.
Lets say you extracted the above file in a folder called: ~/mediatek_kernel
Install Bear and follow the below steps:
cd ~/mediatek_kernel
source ./env.sh
cd kernel-3.18
# the following step may not be needed depending on the kernel
mkdir out
make O=out ARCH=arm64 tubads_defconfig
# generating compile_commands.json
bear make -j8 O=out ARCH=arm64
cd <repo_path>/helper_scripts
python run_all.py -l ~/mediatek_kernel/llvm_bitcode_out -a 1 -c ~/mediatek_kernel/kernel-3.18/compile_commands.json -n 2 -o ~/mediatek_kernel/kernel-3.18/out -k ~/mediatek_kernel/kernel-3.18 -f ~/mediatek_kernel/ioctl_finder_out
The above command takes quite some time (30 min - 1hr).
First, all the analysis results will be in the folder: ~/mediatek_kernel/ioctl_finder_out (argument given to the option -f), for each entry point a .txt file will be created, which contains all the information about the recovered interface.
If you are interested in information about just the interface and don't care about anything else, We recommend you use the parse_interface_output.py script. This script converts the crazy output of Interface Recovery pass into nice json files with a clean and consistent format.
cd <repo_path>/helper_scripts
python parse_interface_output.py <ioctl_finder_out_dir> <output_directory_for_json_files>
Here <ioctl_finder_out_dir> should be same as the folder you provided to the -f option and <output_directory_for_json_files> is the folder where the json files should be created.
You can use the corresponding json files for the interface recovery of the corresponding ioctl.
To provide value for option -g you need to know the name of the *-gcc binary used to compile the kernel.
An easy way to know this would be to grep for gcc in makeout.txt and you will see compiler commands from which you can know the *-gcc binary name.
For our example above, if you do grep gcc makeout.txt for the example build, you will see lot of lines like below:
aarch64-linux-android-gcc -Wp,-MD,fs/jbd2/.transaction.o.d -nostdinc -isystem ...
So, the value for -g should be aarch64-linux-android-gcc.
If the kernel to be built is 32-bit then the binary most likely will be arm-eabi-gcc
For Qualcomm (or msm) chipsets, you may see *gcc-wrapper.py instead of *.gcc, in which case you should provide the *gcc-wrapper.py.
Depeding on the chipset type, you need to provide corresponding number.
This is the path of the folder provided to the option O= for make command during kernel build.
Not all kernels need a separate out path. You may build kernel by not providing an option O, in which case you SHOULD NOT provide value for that option while running run_all.py.
For kernels built using clang, in addition to the above options please specify the following options (assuming you used compile_commands.json):
-isclang -clangp <PATH_TO_THE_CLANG_USED_TO_BUILD_THE_KERNEL> -llvmlinkp <PATH_TO_THE_LLVM_LINK (will be in the same folder as clang)>
Before we can begin fuzzing we need to process the output a bit with our very much research quality (sorry) parsers.
These are found here. The main script to run will be run_all.py:
$ python run_all.py --help
usage: run_all.py [-h] -f F -o O [-n {manual,auto,hybrid}] [-m M]
run_all options
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f F Filename of the ioctl analysis output OR the entire
output directory created by the system
-o O Output directory to store the results. If this
directory does not exist it will be created
-n {manual,auto,hybrid}
Specify devname options. You can choose manual
(specify every name manually), auto (skip anything that
we don't identify a name for), or hybrid (if we
detected a name, we use it, else we ask the user)
-m M Enable multi-device output most ioctls only have one
applicable device node, but some may have multiple. (0
to disable)
You'll want to pass -f the output directory of the ioctl analysis e.g. ~/mediatek_kernel/ioctl_finder_out.
-o Is where you where to store the post-processed results. These will be easily digestible XML files (jpits).
-n Specifies the system to what degree you want to rely on our device name recovery.
If you don't want to do any work/name hunting, you can specify auto.
This of course comes at the cost of skipping any device for which we don't recover a name. If you want to be paranoid and not trust any of our recovery efforts (totally reasonable) you can use the manual option to name every single device yourself.
hybrid then is a combination of both -- we will name the device for you when we can, and fall back to you when we've failed.
-m Sometimes ioctls can correspond to more than one device (this is common with v4l2/subdev ioctls for example). Support for this in enabled by default, but it requires user interaction to specify the numberof devices for each device. If this is too annoying for you, you can disable the prompt by passing -m 0 (we will assume a single device for each ioctl).
After running, you should have, in your out folder, a folder for each ioctl.
MangoFuzz is our simple prototype fuzzer and is based off of Peach (specifically MozPeach).
It's not a particularly sophisticated fuzzer but it does find bugs. It was also built to be easily expandable. There are 2 components to this fuzzer, the fuzz engine and the executor. The executor can be found here, and the fuzz engine can be found here.
The executor runs on the phone, listening for data that the fuzz engine will send to it.
Simply compile it for your phones architecture, adb push it on to the phone, and execute with the port you want it to listen on!
Interfacing with MangoFuzz is fairly simple. You'll want an Engine object and a Parser object, which you'll feed your engine into.
From here, you parse jpits with your Parser, and then run the Engine. Easy!
We've provided some simple run scripts to get you started.
To run against specific drivers you can use runner.py on one of the ioctl folders in the output directory (created by our post processing scripts).
e.g. ./runner.py -f honor8/out/chb -num 1000. This tells MangoFuzz to run for 1000 iterations against all ioctl command value pairs pertaining to the chb ioctl/driver.
If instead we want to run against an entire device (phone), you can use dev_runner.py. e.g. ./dev_runner.py -f honor8/out -num 100.
This will continue looping over the driver files, randomly switching between them for 100 iterations each.
Note that before the fuzz engine can communicate with the phone, you'll need to use ADB to set up port forwarding e.g. adb forward tcp:2022 tcp:2022
