AFLTriage
AFLTriage is a tool to triage crashing input files using a debugger. It is designed to be portable and not require any run-time dependencies, besides libc and an external debugger. It supports triaging crashes generated by any program, not just AFL, but recognizes AFL directories specially, hence the name.
Some notable features include:
- Multiple report formats: text, JSON, and raw debugger JSON
- Parallel crash triage
- Crash deduplication
- Sanitizer report parsing
- Supports binary targets with or without symbols/debugging information
- Source code and variables will be annotated in reports for context
Currently AFLTriage only supports GDB and has only been tested on Linux C/C++ targets. Note that AFLTriage does not classify crashes by potential exploitablity. Accurate exploitability classification is very target and scenario specific and is best left to specialized tools and expert analysts.
Usage
Usage of AFLTriage is quite straightforward. You need your inputs to triage, an output directory for reports, and the binary and its arguments to triage.
Example:
$ afltriage -i fuzzing_directory -o reports ./target_binary --option-one @@
AFLTriage v1.0.0
[+] GDB is working (GNU gdb (Ubuntu 8.1.1-0ubuntu1) 8.1.1 - Python 3.6.9 (default, Jan 26 2021, 15:33:00))
[+] Image triage cmdline: "./target_binary --option-one @@"
[+] Reports will be output to directory "reports"
[+] Triaging AFL directory fuzzing_directory/ (41 files)
[+] Triaging 41 testcases
[+] Using 24 threads to triage
[+] Triaging [41/41 00:00:02] [####################] CRASH: ASAN detected heap-buffer-overflow in buggy_function after a READ leading to SIGABRT (si_signo=6) / SI_TKILL (si_code=-6)
[+] Triage stats [Crashes: 25 (unique 12), No crash: 16, Errored: 0]
Similar to AFL the @@
is replaced with the path of the file to be triaged. AFLTriage will take care of the rest.
Building and Running
You will need a working Rust build environment. Once you have cargo and rust installed, building and running is simple:
cd afltriage-rs/
cargo run --help
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.33s
Running `target/debug/afltriage --help`
...
Extended Usage
