TriforceOpenBSDSyscallFuzzer

This is a collection of files used to perform system call fuzzing of OpenBSD amd64 using TriforceAFL (i.e. AFL and QEMU). To use it you will need TriforceAFL (https://github.com/nccgroup/TriforceAFL), the FlashRD 2.0 distribution (http://www.nmedia.net/flashrd/), an OpenBSD box to build the driver and a disk image, and a Linux box as host to run the fuzzer (other fuzzer hosts may work as well, we've only run TriforceAFL from a Linux host, specifically Debian/Ubuntu).

We'll be doing everything as root on the OpenBSD box, as this box is being used just to boostrap our environment. If you have an existing OpenBSD box, feel free to do less of this as root. If you're an experienced OpenBSD user, a lot of this will be overly verbose. Anyway, onwards!

On the OpenBSD box:

export PKG_PATH=http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/$(uname -r)/packages/$(uname -m)/
pkg_add git
pkg_add python # pick python 2.7

Next you'll need to pull down the OpenBSD sources, and the kernel sources, and then unpack them:

cd ~
ftp http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/5.9/src.tar.gz 
ftp http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/5.9/sys.tar.gz
cd /usr/src; tar -xzpf $HOME/src.tar.gz; tar -xzpf $HOME/sys.tar.gz;

If you already have an install CD, no need to pull down the following files (as they'll be in $CDMOUNT/5.9/amd64/*.tgz). You'll only need to set $DISTDIR appropriately. Otherwise...

cd ~
ftp http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/5.9/amd64/base59.tgz
ftp http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/5.9/amd64/man59.tgz
ftp http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/5.9/amd64/comp59.tgz
ftp http://mirrors.sonic.net/pub/OpenBSD/5.9/amd64/game59.tgz
export DISTDIR=~

We now have the necessary dependencies installed, and can start building stuff.

Enter the TriforceOpenBSDFuzzer directory. There are separate directories containing the OpenBSD files (targ) and the fuzzer host files (fuzzHost).

Building Driver and Inputs

On an OpenBSD host, enter the targ directory and run make. You should also build input files from this directory

    mkdir inputs
    ./gen.py                   # build simple tests
    ./genTempl.py templ.txt    # build most syscall tests
    ./gen2.py                  # build complex syscall tests
    tar -czf ../inputs.tgz inputs

Building Disk Image

Next you will need to build a disk image with the driver, using the FlashRD distribution (http://www.nmedia.net/flashrd/). On an OpenBSD host (with sources in /usr/src and kernel sources in /usr/src/sys from the above section), we'll now do several things:

  • extract flashrd-2.0
  • patch flashrd
  • create an obsd directory, and fill it with stuff!
    cd ~ #make sure this is on your /home parition, you will need significant disk space for this
    ftp http://www.nmedia.net/flashrd/flashrd-2.0.tar.gz
    tar xzf flashrd-2.0.tar.gz
    cd flashrd-2.0
    patch -p1 < $FUZZER/image-diff.txt #set $FUZZER to where you cloned TriforceOpenBSDFuzzer
    mkdir obsd
    cd obsd

    tar xzpf $DISTDIR/base59.tgz
    tar xzpf $DISTDIR/man59.tgz
    tar xzpf $DISTDIR/comp59.tgz
    tar xzpf $DISTDIR/game59.tgz
    tar xzpf /var/sysmerge/etc.tgz
    cp $FUZZER/image-etc-rc etc/rc
    cp $FUZZER/targ/inputs/ex1 root/ex1
    cd ..

You can now create an image by running these commands :

    cp $FUZZER/targ/driver obsd/bin/driver
    ./flashrd obsd
    mv flashimg* $FUZZER/flashimg.bin
    mv bsd.gdb $FUZZER/bsd.gdb

Save a copy of flashimg.bin and bsd.gdb. You will need them on the fuzzer host.

You may wish to create a second image for debugging that allows you to run an interactive shell. Edit obsd/etc/rc and replace /bin/driver -v with /bin/sh -i and create a second image. Then we'll save a copy of flashimg-sh.bin and bsd-sh.gdb for later.

    ./flashrd obsd
    mv flashimg* $FUZZER/flashimg-sh.bin
    mv bsd.gdb $FUZZER/bsd-sh.gdb

We can now leave the OpenBSD box, and return to our fuzz host (make sure to copy $FUZZER out, so we can use it on the fuzz host).

Fuzzing

We run the fuzzer on a Linux host (it should work on any host where TriforceAFL builds and runs, but YMMV, especially on a non-linux host). On the fuzzer host, install TriforceAFL to ../TriforceAFL. Copy the flashimg*.bin and bsd*.gdb to the fuzzhost directory, and unpack the inputs into the fuzzHost directory:

    cd TriforceOpenBSDFuzzer # this should now have the files we made on the BSD host in it
    cp flashimg* fuzzHost/
    cp bsd* fuzzHost/
    cd fuzzhost
    tar xzf ../inputs.tgz

Now we're ready to fuzz! Enter the fuzzHost directory and start the fuzzer with ./runFuzz -M M0.

Note that the runFuzz script expects a master or slave name, as it always runs in master/slave mode. See the runFuzz script for more usage information.

Reproducing

To reproduce test cases (such as crashes), on the fuzzer host run:

  ./runTest inputs/ex1
  ./runTest outputs/crashes/id*

You can also run the driver out of the emulated environment with the -t option, with verbose logging with -vv and without actually performing the system calls with -x. For example, on the OpenBSD host run:

  ./driver -tvvx < inputs/ex1
  ktrace ./driver -t < inputs/ex1

It is sometimes useful to be able to boot the kernel and interactively run tests. You can run ./runSh to boot into an interactive shell.

You will likely want to add additional files (such as test cases) to the flashimg-sh.bin file for testing. To do this, on the OpenBSD host copy the additional files to flashrd-2.0/obsd/root and rebuild the flash image. Transfer the files back to your fuzzer host and execute runSh again. You will find the additional files in the /root directory. You can also add files to the flash image after creating it, as root on the OpenBSD host:

    vnconfig vnd0 ./flashimg.bin
    mount /dev/vnd0a /mnt
    cp file /mnt
    umount /mnt
    vnconfig -u vnd0

Files added here will appear in /flash when the image is booted

Debugging

The patches applied earlier to the flashrd distribution will enable debugging and disable optimization when building the kernel. This makes debugging much easier.

To debug the kernel from the fuzzHost, make a copy of /usr/src/sys from your OpenBSD host, and copy bsd-sh.gdb to sys/x/x/x/x. In one window run ./runSh and after the system has booted run

    cd sys
    mkdir -p x/x/x/x
    cd x/x/x/x
    cp $FUZZER/bsd-sh.gdb .
    gdb -ex "target remote :1234" ./bsd-sh.gdb
