androsign.py Segmentation Fault #173

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I tryed to analyze an know malware apk.
1. Used the command:
./androsign.py -i apks/malware/com.android.installer.full.apk -b 
signatures/dbandroguard -c signatures/dbconfig

Expected to see something like:
com.android.installer.full.apk : ----> "SOMETHING"

Instead it gives me:
RageagainstTheCage ERROR
Exploid ERROR
com.android.installer.full.apk :Segmentation fault (core dumped)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Androguard 1.9

Linux 3.13.0-44-generic #73-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 16 00:22:43 UTC 2014 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

When running the command in python gdb and taking the trace with bt, it gives 
me:

but I don't know how to solve this.

Debugging the code I discovered that segfault comes from similatiry.c:301 
inside entropy(). When segfault occurred size_orig was too long compared. I 
don't now what entropy exactly does, but in other times that it was called 
size_orig was always equal to strlen(c_orig) so I force size_orig to be equal 
to c_orig inside entropy. Besides i could detect that this problem was caused 
by this instruction "PyArg_ParseTuple( args, "s#", &input, &input_size );" at 
elsign.cc:1262 what seems to parse the tuple wrong, resulting in a wrong input 
size. I don't now what is the real impact of my changes but, doing what I've 
described androsign could detect malwares that were in Androguard database.

In my case, i found that the problem was in uninitialized local variables 
(which is my opinion is very bad taste) here:
PyObject *entropy(PyObject *self, PyObject* args)
{
    char *input; size_t input_size;
    // FIX: char *input = NULL; size_t input_size = 0;

    int ok = PyArg_ParseTuple( args, "s#", &input, &input_size );
    if(!ok) return PyInt_FromLong(-1);

    double value = entropy( input, input_size );

    return PyFloat_FromDouble( value );
}

So, initializing them to NULL and 0 fixed the problem, seems like 
PyArg_ParseTuple doesn't allocate memory if it got a non NULL pointer. Hope it 
helps you, it helped to me :)
