PLSysSec/sys: Sys: A Static/Symbolic Tool for Finding Good Bugs in Good (Browser) Code

If you're interested, check out the (very very very) new reimplementation over here!

If you want to install Sys locally:

• llvm-9, llvm-9-tools
• boolector configured with --shared option. See the build() and package() functions in this file as an example of how to install boolector after you clone it. On Arch Linux, you can just install boolector-git from AUR.
• The Haskell tool Stack

Alternatively, you can use the Dockerfile from Ralf-Philipp Weinmann.

Once you have all the dependencies installed you should be able to just build the tool:

Once you built the tool you can build and run our tests with:

This will run a more-or-less full version of our test suite, along with regression tests for every bug that we list in the paper. The suite takes a little over two minutes on laptop with 64GB of RAM and 8 threads. All tests with one exception---a bug whose source we're having trouble tracking down---should pass. If anything else fails, try re-running the tests; the solver may have timed out (this hasn't happened on our machines, but since we can't give you a login for annonymity, its a possibility that it will happen on your machine).

If you just want to reproduce the paper results and nothing else, run:

stack test --ta '-p End-to-end'

Once you built the tool you can now use it to find bugs!

The tool takes several options:

  -d DIR    --libdir=DIR   directory (or file) to analyze
  -e EXTN   --extn=EXTN    file extension
  -c CHECK  --check=CHECK  checker to run

• The -d option is used to specify the directory (containing the LLVM files) or a single LLVM file.
• The -e option is used to specify the extension of files to check. This is useful when building your project with different optimizations levels (e.g., .ll-O0 for debug build with -O0 and .ll-O0_p for production).
  • ll matches all *.ll files
  • O0 matches all *.ll-O0 and *.ll-O0_p files
  • O1 matches all *.ll-O1 and *.ll-O1_p files
  • O2 matches all *.ll-O2 and *.ll-O2_p files
  • O3 matches all *.ll-O3 and *.ll-O3_p files
  • Og matches all *.ll-Og and *.ll-Og_p files
  • Os matches all *.ll-Os and *.ll-Os_p files
  • Oz matches all *.ll-Oz and *.ll-Os_z files
  • prod matches all *_p files
  • any matches all files
• The -c option is used to specify the checker to run, one of:
  • uninit: Uninitialized memory checker
  • heapoob: Malloc OOB checker
  • concroob: Negative index OOB checker
  • userinput: User input checker

To find the uninitialized memory access bug that our tool found in Firefox's Prio library:

$ stack exec sys -- -c uninit -e prod -d ./test/Bugs/Uninit/Firefox/serial.ll-O2_p

The tool flags two bugs. Let's look at the first:

Stack uninit bug
Name "serial_read_mp_array_73"
in 
Name "serial_read_mp_array"
path-to-file
[UnName 4,UnName 71]

If you inspect the serial_read_mp_array() function, the buggy block path is %4 (the first block) to %71,where we use [%73].

We haven't tested (and likely won't test) Sys on anything but Arch Linux. We're happy to integrate patches that add support for other OSes and build systems though!
