Mythril

Mythril is an assembler and disassembler for Ethereum VM bytecode. It was created for low-level testing/fuzzing of EVM implementations.

Installation

Install from Pypi:

$ pip install mythril

Or, clone the GitHub repo to install the newest master branch:

$ git clone https://github.com/b-mueller/mythril/
$ cd mythril
$ python setup.py install

Usage

To disassemble a piece of bytecode, pass it on the command line:

$ mythril -d -c "0x606060405050"
PUSH1 0x60
PUSH1 0x40
POP
POP

Modifying and re-assembling code

Mythril can assemble code from input files that contain one instruction per line. To start from an existing contract, save the disassembly to a text file:

$ mythril -d -c "0x606060405050" -o code.easm

Edit the instructions in a text editor. For example, we can modify the PUSH instructions from the original example:

PUSH2 0x4050
PUSH4 0x60708090
POP
POP

Save the file and run Mythril with the -a flag to re-assemble:

$ mythril -a code.easm 
0x61405063607080905050

The virtual machine language is described in the Ethereum Yellowpaper.

Tracing EVM execution

You can run a piece of bytecode in the PyEthereum VM and trace its execution using the -t flag. This will output the instructions executed as well as the state of the stack for every execution step. To run code from the command line, use:

$ ./mythril.py -t -c "0x606060405050"
vm stack=[] op=PUSH1 steps=0 pc=b'0' address=b'\x01#Eg\x89\xab\xcd\xef\x01#Eg\x89\xab\xcd\xef\x01#Eg' depth=0 pushvalue=96 gas=b'1000000' storage={'code': '0x', 'nonce': '0', 'balance': '0', 'storage': {}} inst=96
vm stack=[b'96'] op=PUSH1 steps=1 depth=0 pushvalue=64 gas=b'999997' pc=b'2' inst=96
vm stack=[b'96', b'64'] op=POP steps=2 depth=0 gas=b'999994' pc=b'4' inst=80
vm stack=[b'96'] op=POP steps=3 depth=0 gas=b'999992' pc=b'5' inst=80

For larger contracts, you might prefer to compile them to a binary file instead:

$ mythril -a contract.easm -o contract.bin
$ mythril --trace -f contract.bin

Disassembling a contract from the Ethereum blockchain

You can also load code from an existing contract in the Ethereum blockchain. For this, you need to have a full node running, and the RPC debug interface must be activated. For example, when running geth you can do this as follows:

$ geth --syncmode full --rpc --rpcapi eth,debug

To load contract code from your node, pass the TxID of the transaction that created the contract:

$ mythril -d --txid 0x23112645da9ae684270de843faaeb44918c79a09e019d3a6cf8b87041020340e -o some_contract.easm

Note: If you want to get code from the Ethereum mainnet, it is easier to download it from Etherscan.
