MACKE is a wrapper around AFL and KLEE, that decomposes the analyzed programs into several smaller units, analyze these seperately and finally merge all found errors to one interactive report. Please read the MACKE-paper for more details.
- Python 3.4+
- A system able to run LLVM. See official requirements for LLVM
- AFL See AFL's Quickstart guide
Building KLEE can be a complicated task and there are multiple strategies for it. We suggest the setup described in our Step-by-Step manual. But whatever way you choose, MACKE needs a special search mode, that is not part of the official KLEE code, yet. We aim to merge it into KLEE someday, but till then, you need to use our fork of KLEE and checkout its sonar branch.
For our step-by-step manual, this means, that you have to adapt one command. Instead of:
git clone --depth 1 --branch v1.3.0 https://github.com/klee/klee.git
in Step 6, you must use:
git clone --depth 1 --branch sonar https://github.com/tum-i22/klee22.git
In addition to the above, you also need to install LLVM 6.0 if you want the ability to fuzz in phase 1 of Macke.
For our step-by-step manual, this means that you must repeat Step 1 for LLVM 6.0, i.e. replace RELEASE_342 with RELEASE_600 in all links.
MACKE performs several modifications on LLVM bitcode level. Doing this inside python requires a lot more effort, than directly writing the operations in C++ - especially if you are forced to use the same, old version of LLVM as KLEE uses. Therefore, we decide to seperate all low level operations into two other repositories - one for LLVM 3.4 for KLEE-related stuff and another one for LLVM 6.0 for AFL-related stuff.
If you choose a different directory structure than suggested in our Step-by-Step manual, please adapt the pathes to match your needs.
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/tum-i22/macke-opt-llvm
cd macke-opt-llvm
make LLVM_SRC_PATH=~/build/llvm3.4/ KLEE_BUILDDIR=~/build/klee/Release+Asserts KLEE_INCLUDES=~/build/klee/include/
Now repeat the above step for macke-fuzzer-opt-llvm
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/tum-i22/macke-fuzzer-opt-llvm
cd macke-fuzzer-opt-llvm
make LLVM_SRC_PATH=~/build/llvm6.0/ KLEE_BUILDDIR=~/build/klee/Release+Asserts KLEE_INCLUDES=~/build/klee/include/
We are done with the dependencies - now to the main project.
# You might have to change the branch in repository below, depending on the version you want to build
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/tum-i22/macke
cd macke
make dev
Before you can actually start using MACKE, you have to modify the ./config.ini with your favorite text editor. Please adapt the pathes there to the directories, you have created earlier in this guide.
First switch your virtual environment to Macke
source .venv/bin/activate # Note: just needed once per open shell
If you want to analyze the isolated functions with symbolic execution then run the following:
macke 2beAnalyzed.bc
Otherwise if you want to analyze the isolated functions with fuzzing (AFL) then run the following:
macke --use-fuzzer=1 --fuzz-bc=2beAnalyzedCompiledWithClang3.8.bc 2beAnalyzed.bc
We wish you happy testing! If you have problems converting existing source code bases to bitcode files, you should have a look at this tool for improving make.
