Work In Progess

The home for Interruptor, a human-friendly interrupts hook library based on Frida's Stalker

Interruptor is the interrupts/systemcall hooking system from Dexcalibur.

Quick start for Android app (could not work as is with obfuscated app) :

frida --codeshare FrenchYeti/android-arm64-strace -U -f YOUR_BINARY

If you like it, please consider to buy 💰 Dexcalibur Pro or 💖 sponsor me. Sponsor encourage me to free parts of Dexcalibur Pro and spend more free time on such projects :)

The purpose of this library is to provide to Frida users, a rich API able to produce strace-like trace + hook + configurable syscall args API.

It provides by default some useful features such as :

File Descriptor lookup (to retrieve path)
Bitmap parsing to have humean-friendly output
Syscall hook using Frida's Interceptor style
Better api to trace/change syscall args before/after
Filterable modules and syscalls
Coverage generation

1. How to use

In fact, install is not necessary. Just include the released minified JS file corresponding to your target os/arch into your Frida agent's script. Or call it throuh Frida's Codeshare.

1.A Using Frida's Codeshare (without configuration)

Warning : this methods don't allow you to configure Interruptor. So, tracing of obfuscated or multi-threaded application could failed.

This method is only provided for training purpose.

frida --codeshare FrenchYeti/android-arm64-strace -f YOUR_BINARY

1.A From latest release

Requirements :

frida
frida-compile

Donwload latest release for your architecture into your working directory, and do:

var Interruptor = require('./android-arm64-strace.min.js').target.LinuxArm64();

// better results, when app is loaded
Java.perform(()=>{
    Interruptor.newAgentTracer({
        exclude: {
            modules: ["linker64"],
            syscalls: ["clock_gettime"]
        }
    }).start();
});

Time to deploy hooks can be configured to be when a particular library is loaded. See options below.

1.C From source

Requirements :

frida
frida-compile
TS compiler

Only from source for now (will move to NPM ASAP)

git clone https://github.com/FrenchYeti/interruptor
cd interruptor
npm install
npx tsc && npx webpack --config webpack.android.arm64.config.js 
frida-compile examples/simple_strace.js -o trace.js && frida -U -f <PACKAGE> -l trace.js

2. Examples

2.A Simple tracing

Simple tracing without hook from attach moment, with excluded module and syscall (by name)

var Interruptor = require('./android-arm64-strace.min.js').target.LinuxArm64();

// better results, when app is loaded
Java.perform(()=>{
    Interruptor.newAgentTracer({
        exclude: {
            modules: ["linker64"],
            syscalls: ["clock_gettime"]
        }
    }).start();
});

Output :

2.B Simple tracing with hooked "read" syscall and dynamic loading

Interruptor.newAgentTracer({
    exclude: {
        syscalls: ["clock_gettime"]
    },
    svc: {
         read: {
             onLeave: function(ctx){
                 let res = Memory.scanSync(ctx.x1, ctx.x2.toInt32(), Interruptor.utils().toScanPattern('frida'));
                 if(res.length > 0){
                     res.map( m => m.address.writeByteArray([0x41,0x41,0x41,0x41,0x41]));
                     console.log("remove 'frida' pattern from resulting buffer");
                 }
             }
         }
    }
}).startOnLoad(/<YOUR_LIB>/g);

2.C Simple tracing with coverage

Interruptor.newAgentTracer({
    exclude: {
        syscalls: ["clock_gettime"]
    },
    coverage: {
        enabled: true,
        fname: "/data/data/<YOUR_APP>/test.drcov",
        stops: {
            count: 2000 // stop after 2000 basic blocks captured
        }
    }
}).startOnLoad(/<YOUR_LIB>/g);

5. Documentation

5.A Create a new agent

First, you need to get the tracer factory adapted to your OS/Architecture : For now only "LinuxArm64()" is available.

var Interruptor = require('../dist/index.js').target.LinuxArm64();

Next step is to intanciante a tracer with a specific options. Options are not mandatory but can change a lot the behavior and output.

Interruptor.newAgentTracer( /* opts */);

A full list of options can be found into the next section.

Final step, choose when you want to start to trace :

A. When frida script is executed

var Interruptor = require('../dist/index.js').target.LinuxArm64();

Interruptor.newAgentTracer( /* opts */).start();

B. The first time a module is opened by the linker

var Interruptor = require('../dist/index.js').target.LinuxArm64();

Interruptor.newAgentTracer( /* opts */).startOnLoad(/my_lib\.so$/g);

C. From your hooks

var Interruptor = require('../dist/index.js').target.LinuxArm64();

Interceptor.attach( /* ... */,{
    onEnter: function(){
        Interruptor.newAgentTracer( /* opts */).start();
    }
})

5.B Options

All options are optional, except some explicited options Below, a complete overview of options :

{
    followFork: TRUE | FALSE ] // TODO
    followThread: TRUE | FALSE ] // TODO
    tid: <Thread ID>,
    pid: <PID>,
    onStart: <callback function>,
    exclude: {
        syscalls: [ ... syscall names ... ], // "read", ...
        modules: [ ... module names ... ], // "linker64" ...
        svc: [ ... SVC number ...], // 0x1e, ...
        hvc: [ ... HVC number ...]
    },
    // coverage options
    coverage: {
        enabled = true,
        flavor = "dr", // not supported
        fname = "/data/data/my_app/drcov.dat", // MANDATORY
        stops = 2000 // MANDATORY
    },
    // output options (partially implemented)
    output: {
        flavor: "dxc", // "strace" is coming
        tid: true,
        pid: false,
        module: true,
        dump_buff: true, // dump buffer when ptr+size are known 
        highlight: {
            syscalls: []
        }
    },
    // hooks
    svc: {
        [syscall_text_name]: {
            onEnter: function(pContext){
            
            },
            onLeave: function(pContext){
            
            }
        }
    }
}

5.B.1 Filtering

! Important !

When a system is excluded, it is not hooked and printed. By consequence, some feature can not work properly such as file descriptor lookup when "openat" is excluded.

All interruption types can be filtered using at least the interruption number. Additionnally, Modules and System calls can be filtered by name (string pattern or regexp) or by properties (using a filtering function).

Interruptor.newAgentTracer({
    followThread: false,
    include: {
        modules: ["libc.so"],
        syscalls: [/^get/,"read","openat","close",/^m/]
    },
    exclude: {
        syscalls: [ /time$/]
    },
    output: {
        tid: true,
        inst: true,
        module: true
    }
}).start();

Modules and System calls are filtering by following one of these tree ways : Hook/trace only instructions

from a list of mapped modules
from modules not included into "exclude list" of mapped modules
from included modules - excluded modules

include: {
    syscalls: [
        "read",
        "openat",
        "close",
        /^m/,       // mprotect, madvise, mmap, ...
        /^get/     // getpriority, getuid, getpid,  ...
    ]
},

5.C Tracer types

There are mainly two way to hook interrupts depending of yours needs.

Agent Tracer

When you want to use only a Frida agent script (and not host script).

Limitation:

Cannot follow children/multiples processes.

Standalone Tracer [TODO]

When you need to follow children processes, or external processes. It works even if there is not link between traces processes.

In this case, the final script runs on the host and act like strace tool into the host or the device.
