Reverse engineering framework in Python

Table of Contents

What is Miasm?

Miasm is a free and open source (GPLv2) reverse engineering framework. Miasm aims to analyze / modify / generate binary programs. Here is a non exhaustive list of features:

  • Opening / modifying / generating PE / ELF 32 / 64 LE / BE using Elfesteem
  • Assembling / Disassembling X86 / ARM / MIPS / SH4 / MSP430
  • Representing assembly semantic using intermediate language
  • Emulating using JIT (dynamic code analysis, unpacking, ...)
  • Expression simplification for automatic de-obfuscation
  • ...

See the official blog for more examples and demos.

Basic examples

Assembling / Disassembling

Import Miasm x86 architecture:

>>> from miasm2.arch.x86.arch import mn_x86

Assemble a line:

>>> l = mn_x86.fromstring('XOR ECX, ECX', 32)
>>> print l
XOR        ECX, ECX
>>> mn_x86.asm(l)
['1\xc9', '3\xc9', 'g1\xc9', 'g3\xc9']

Modify an operand:

>>> l.args[0] = mn_x86.regs.EAX
>>> print l
XOR        EAX, ECX
>>> a = mn_x86.asm(l)
>>> print a
['1\xc8', '3\xc1', 'g1\xc8', 'g3\xc1']

Disassemble the result:

>>> print mn_x86.dis(a[0], 32)
XOR        EAX, ECX

Using Machine abstraction:

>>> from miasm2.analysis.machine import Machine
>>> mn = Machine('x86_32').mn
>>> print mn.dis('\x33\x30', 32)
XOR        ESI, DWORD PTR [EAX]

For Mips:

>>> mn = Machine('mips32b').mn
>>> print  mn.dis('97A30020'.decode('hex'), "b")
LHU        V1, 0x20(SP)

Intermediate representation

Create an instruction:

>>> machine = Machine('arml')
>>> l = machine.mn.dis('002088e0'.decode('hex'), 'l')
>>> print l
ADD        R2, R8, R0

Create an intermediate representation (IR) object:

>>> ira = machine.ira()

Add instruction to the pool:

>>> ira.add_instr(l)

Print current pool:

>>> for lbl, b in ira.blocs.items():
...     print b
...
loc_0000000000000000:0x00000000

        R2 = (R8+R0)

        IRDst = loc_0000000000000004:0x00000004

Working with IR, for instance by getting side effects:

>>> from miasm2.expression.expression import get_rw
>>> for lbl, b in ira.blocs.items():
...     for irs in b.irs:
...         o_r, o_w = get_rw(irs)
...         print 'read:   ', [str(x) for x in o_r]
...         print 'written:', [str(x) for x in o_w]
...         print
...
read:    ['R8', 'R0']
written: ['R2']

read:    ['loc_0000000000000004:0x00000004']
written: ['IRDst']

Emulation

Giving a shellcode:

00000000 8d4904      lea    ecx, [ecx+0x4]
00000003 8d5b01      lea    ebx, [ebx+0x1]
00000006 80f901      cmp    cl, 0x1
00000009 7405        jz     0x10
0000000b 8d5bff      lea    ebx, [ebx-1]
0000000e eb03        jmp    0x13
00000010 8d5b01      lea    ebx, [ebx+0x1]
00000013 89d8        mov    eax, ebx
00000015 c3          ret
>>> s = '\x8dI\x04\x8d[\x01\x80\xf9\x01t\x05\x8d[\xff\xeb\x03\x8d[\x01\x89\xd8\xc3'

Import the shellcode thanks to the Container abstraction:

>>> from miasm2.analysis.binary import Container
>>> c = Container.from_string(s)
>>> c
<miasm2.analysis.binary.ContainerUnknown object at 0x7f34cefe6090>

Disassembling the shellcode at address 0:

>>> from miasm2.analysis.machine import Machine
>>> machine = Machine('x86_32')
>>> mdis = machine.dis_engine(c.bin_stream)
>>> blocs = mdis.dis_multibloc(0)
>>> for b in blocs:
...  print b
...

Initializing the Jit engine with a stack:

>>> jitter = machine.jitter(jit_type='python')
>>> jitter.init_stack()

Add the shellcode in an arbitrary memory location:

>>> run_addr = 0x40000000
>>> myjit.vm.add_memory_page(run_addr, PAGE_READ | PAGE_WRITE, s)

Create a sentinelle to catch the return of the shellcode:

def code_sentinelle(jitter):
    jitter.run = False
    jitter.pc = 0
    return True

>>> jitter.add_breakpoint(0x1337beef, code_sentinelle)
>>> jitter.push_uint32_t(0x1337beef)

Active logs:

>>> jitter.jit.log_regs = True
>>> jitter.jit.log_mn = True

Run at arbitrary address:

>>> jitter.init_run(run_addr)
>>> jitter.continue_run()

Symbolic execution

Initializing the IR pool:

>>> ira = machine.ira()
>>> for b in blocs:
...    ira.add_bloc(b)
...

Initializing the engine with default symbolic values:

>>> from miasm2.ir.symbexec import symbexec
>>> sb = symbexec(ira, machine.mn.regs.regs_init)

Launching the execution:

>>> symbolic_pc = sb.emul_ir_blocs(ira, 0)
>>> print symbolic_pc
((ECX_init+0x4)[0:8]+0xFF)?(0xB,0x10)

Same, with step logs (only changes are displayed):

>>> sb = symbexec(ira, machine.mn.regs.regs_init)
>>> symbolic_pc = sb.emul_ir_blocs(ira, 0, step=True)

How does it work?

Miasm embeds its own disassembler, intermediate language and instruction semantic. It is written in Python.

To emulate code, it uses LibTCC, LLVM, GCC or Python to JIT the intermediate representation. It can emulate shellcodes and all or parts of binaries. Python callbacks can be executed to interact with the execution, for instance to emulate library functions effects.

Documentation

TODO

An auto-generated documentation is available here.

Obtaining Miasm

Software requirements

Miasm uses:

  • python-pyparsing
  • python-dev
  • elfesteem from Elfesteem

To enable code JIT, one of the following module is mandatory:

Configuration

  • Install elfesteem
git clone https://github.com/serpilliere/elfesteem.git elfesteem
cd elfesteem
python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install

To use the jitter, GCC, TCC or LLVM is recommended

  • GCC (any version)
  • LibTCC needs to be configured with the --disable-static option
    • remove libtcc-dev from the system to avoid conflicts
    • clone TinyCC: git clone http://repo.or.cz/tinycc.git
    • set branch to version 0.9.26: cd tinycc/ and git checkout release_0_9_26
    • ./configure --disable-static
    • make
    • sudo make install
    • There may be an error on documentation generation
  • LLVM
    • Debian (testing/unstable): install python-llvm
    • Debian stable/Ubuntu/Kali/whatever: install from llvmpy
    • Windows: python-llvm is not supported :/
  • Build and install Miasm:
$ cd miasm_directory
$ python setup.py build
$ sudo python setup.py install

If something goes wrong during one of the jitter modules compilation, Miasm will skip the error and disable the corresponding module (see the compilation output).

Windows & IDA

Most of Miasm's IDA plugins use a subset of Miasm functionnality. A quick way to have them working is to add:

  • elfesteem directory and pyparsing.py to C:\...\IDA\python\ or pip install pyparsing elfesteem
  • miasm2/miasm2 directory to C:\...\IDA\python\

All features excepting JITter related ones will be available. For a more complete installation, please refer to above paragraphs.

Testing

Miasm comes with a set of regression tests. To run all of them:

cd miasm_directory/test
python test_all.py

Some options can be specified:

  • Mono threading: -m
  • Code coverage instrumentation: -c
  • Only fast tests: -t long (excludes the long tests)

They already use Miasm

  • Sibyl: A function divination tool

Misc

  • Man, does miasm has a link with rr0d?
  • Yes! crappy code and uggly documentation.
