Mythril is a security analysis tool for Ethereum smart contracts. It uses concolic analysis to detect various types of issues. Use it to analyze source code or as a nmap-style black-box blockchain scanner (an "ethermap" if you will).
|
|
|
|
## Installation and setup
|
|
|
|
Install from Pypi:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ pip3 install mythril
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or, clone the GitHub repo to install the newest master branch:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/b-mueller/mythril/
|
|
$ cd mythril
|
|
$ python3 setup.py install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that Mythril requires Python 3.5 to work.
|
|
|
|
### Function signatures
|
|
|
|
Whenever you disassemble or analyze binary code, Mythril will try to resolve function names using its local signature database. The database must be provided at `~/.mythril/signatures.json`. You can start out with the [default file](signatures.json) as follows:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ mkdir ~/.mythril
|
|
$ cd ~/.mythril
|
|
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/b-mueller/mythril/master/signatures.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When you analyze Solidity code, new function signatures are added to the database automatically.
|
|
|
|
## Security analysis
|
|
|
|
Run `myth -x` with one of the input options described below to run the analysis. This will run the Python modules in the [/analysis/modules](https://github.com/b-mueller/mythril/tree/master/mythril/analysis/modules) directory.
|
|
|
|
Mythril detects a range of [security issues](security_checks.md), including integer underflows, owner-overwrite-to-Ether-withdrawal, and others. However, the analysis will not detect business logic issues and is not equivalent to formal verification.
|
|
|
|
### Analyzing Solidity code
|
|
|
|
In order to work with Solidity source code files, the [solc command line compiler](http://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/develop/using-the-compiler.html) needs to be installed and in path. You can then provide the source file(s) as positional arguments, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth -x myContract.sol
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, compile the code on [Remix](http://remix.ethereum.org) and pass the runtime binary code to Mythril:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth -x -c "0x5060(...)"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you have multiple interdependent contracts, pass them to Mythril as separate input files. Mythril will map the first contract to address "0x0000(..)", the second one to "0x1111(...)", and so forth (make sure that contract addresses are set accordingly in the source). The contract passed in the first argument will be executed as the "main" contract.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth -x myContract.sol myLibrary.sol
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Working with on-chain contracts
|
|
|
|
To analyze contracts on the blockchain you need an Ethereum node. By default, Mythril will query a local node via RPC. Alternatively, you can use [INFURA](https://infura.io):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ myth --infura-mainnet -x -a 0x5c436ff914c458983414019195e0f4ecbef9e6dd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you are planning to do batch operations or use the contract search features, running a [go-ethereum](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum) node is recommended. Start your local node as follows:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ geth --rpc --rpcapi eth,debug --syncmode fast
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Specify the target contract with the `-a` option:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth -x -a 0x5c436ff914c458983414019195e0f4ecbef9e6dd -v1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Adding the `-l` flag will cause Mythril to automatically retrieve dependencies, such as library contracts:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth -x -a 0xEbFD99838cb0c132016B9E117563CB41f2B02264 -l -v1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Speed vs. Coverage
|
|
|
|
The maximum recursion depth for the symbolic execution engine can be controlled with the `--max-depth` argument. The default value is 12. Lowering this value reduces the analysis time as well as the coverage / number of explored states.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ myth --infura-mainnet -x -a 0x5c436ff914c458983414019195e0f4ecbef9e6dd --max-depth 8
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Control flow graph
|
|
|
|
The `-g FILENAME` option generates an [interactive jsViz graph](http://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/b-mueller/mythril/blob/master/static/mythril.html):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth --infura-mainnet -g ./graph.html -a 0x5c436ff914c458983414019195e0f4ecbef9e6dd --max-depth 8
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
~~The "bounce" effect, while awesome (and thus enabled by default), sometimes messes up the graph layout.~~ Try adding the `--enable-physics` flag for a very entertaining "bounce" effect that unfortunately completely destroys usability.
|
|
|
|
## Blockchain exploration
|
|
|
|
Mythril builds its own contract database to enable fast search operations. This enables operations like those described in the [legendary "Mitch Brenner" blog post](https://medium.com/@rtaylor30/how-i-snatched-your-153-037-eth-after-a-bad-tinder-date-d1d84422a50b) in ~~seconds~~ minutes instead of days. Unfortunately, the initial sync process is slow. You don't need to sync the whole blockchain right away though: If you abort the syncing process with `ctrl+c`, it will be auto-resumed the next time you run the `--init-db` command.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth --init-db
|
|
Starting synchronization from latest block: 4323706
|
|
Processing block 4323000, 3 individual contracts in database
|
|
(...)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The default behavior is to only sync contracts with a non-zero balance. You can disable this behavior with the `--sync-all` flag, but be aware that this will result in a huge (as in: dozens of GB) database.
|
|
|
|
### Searching from the command line
|
|
|
|
The search feature allows you to find contract instances that contain specific function calls and opcode sequences. It supports simple boolean expressions, such as:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth --search "func#changeMultisig(address)#"
|
|
$ myth --search "code#PUSH1 0x50,POP#"
|
|
$ myth --search "func#changeMultisig(address)# and code#PUSH1 0x50#"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Reading contract storage
|
|
|
|
You can read the contents of storage slots from a deployed contract as follows.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./myth --storage 0 -a "0x76799f77587738bfeef09452df215b63d2cfb08a"
|
|
0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000003
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Utilities
|
|
|
|
### Disassembler
|
|
|
|
Use the `-d` flag to disassemble code. The disassembler accepts a bytecode string or a contract address as its input.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth -d -c "0x6060"
|
|
0 PUSH1 0x60
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Specifying an address via `-a ADDRESS` will download the contract code from your node.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth -d -a "0x2a0c0dbecc7e4d658f48e01e3fa353f44050c208"
|
|
0 PUSH1 0x60
|
|
2 PUSH1 0x40
|
|
4 MSTORE
|
|
(...)
|
|
1135 - FUNCTION safeAdd(uint256,uint256) -
|
|
1136 CALLVALUE
|
|
1137 ISZERO
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Finding cross-references
|
|
|
|
It is often useful to find other contracts referenced by a particular contract. E.g.:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth --search "code#DELEGATECALL#"
|
|
Matched contract with code hash 07459966443977122e639cbf7804c446
|
|
Address: 0x76799f77587738bfeef09452df215b63d2cfb08a, balance: 1000000000000000
|
|
$ myth --xrefs -a 0x76799f77587738bfeef09452df215b63d2cfb08a
|
|
5b9e8728e316bbeb692d22daaab74f6cbf2c4691
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Calculating function hashes
|
|
|
|
To print the Keccak hash for a given function signature:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ myth --hash "setOwner(address)"
|
|
0x13af4035
|
|
```
