Java 支持

angr 还支持符号执行 Java 代码和 Android 应用程序！这也包括使用编译的 Java 和本地 (C/C++) 代码组合的 Android 应用程序。

警告

Java support is experimental! Contribution from the community is highly encouraged! Pull requests are very welcomed!

We implemented Java support by lifting the compiled Java code, both Java and DEX bytecode, leveraging our Soot Python wrapper: pysoot. pysoot extracts a fully serializable interface from Android apps and Java code (unfortunately, as of now, it only works on Linux). For every class of the generated IR (for instance, SootMethod), you can nicely print its instructions (in a format similar to Soot shimple) using print() or str().

We then leverage the generated IR in a new angr engine able to run code in Soot IR: angr/engines/soot/engine.py. This engine is also able to automatically switch to executing native code if the Java code calls any native method using the JNI interface.

Together with the symbolic execution, we also implemented some basic static analysis, specifically a basic CFG reconstruction analysis. Moreover, we added support for string constraint solving, modifying claripy and using the CVC4 solver.

How to install

Enabling Java support requires few more steps than typical angr installation. Assuming you installed angr-dev, activate the virtualenv and run:

pip install -e ./claripy[cvc4-solver]
./setup.sh pysoot

Analyzing Android apps.

Analyzing Android apps (.APK files, containing Java code compiled to the DEX format) requires the Android SDK. Typically, it is installed in <HOME>/Android/SDK/platforms/platform-XX/android.jar, where XX is the Android SDK version used by the app you want to analyze (you may want to install all the platforms required by the Android apps you want to analyze).
