"""
During exploit development, it is frequently useful to debug the
target binary under GDB.
Pwntools makes this easy-to-do with a handful of helper routines, designed
to make your exploit-debug-update cycles much faster.
Useful Functions
----------------
- :func:`attach` - Attach to an existing process
- :func:`debug` - Start a new process under a debugger, stopped at the first instruction
- :func:`debug_shellcode` - Build a binary with the provided shellcode, and start it under a debugger
Debugging Tips
--------------
The :func:`attach` and :func:`debug` functions will likely be your bread and
butter for debugging.
Both allow you to provide a script to pass to GDB when it is started, so that
it can automatically set your breakpoints.
Attaching to Processes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To attach to an existing process, just use :func:`attach`. It is surprisingly
versatile, and can attach to a :class:`.process` for simple
binaries, or will automatically find the correct process to attach to for a
forking server, if given a :class:`.remote` object.
Spawning New Processes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Attaching to processes with :func:`attach` is useful, but the state the process
is in may vary. If you need to attach to a process very early, and debug it from
the very first instruction (or even the start of ``main``), you instead should use
:func:`debug`.
When you use :func:`debug`, the return value is a :class:`.tube` object
that you interact with exactly like normal.
Using GDB Python API
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GDB provides Python API, which is documented at
https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html. Pwntools allows you
to call it right from the exploit, without having to write a gdbscript. This is
useful for inspecting program state, e.g. asserting that leaked values are
correct, or that certain packets trigger a particular code path or put the heap
in a desired state.
Pass ``api=True`` to :func:`attach` or :func:`debug` in order to enable GDB
Python API access. Pwntools will then connect to GDB using RPyC library:
https://rpyc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.
At the moment this is an experimental feature with the following limitations:
- Only Python 3 is supported.
Well, technically that's not quite true. The real limitation is that your
GDB's Python interpreter major version should be the same as that of
Pwntools. However, most GDBs use Python 3 nowadays.
Different minor versions are allowed as long as no incompatible values are
sent in either direction. See
https://rpyc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html#cross-interpreter-compatibility
for more information.
Use
::
$ gdb -batch -ex 'python import sys; print(sys.version)'
in order to check your GDB's Python version.
- If your GDB uses a different Python interpreter than Pwntools (for example,
because you run Pwntools out of a virtualenv), you should install ``rpyc``
package into its ``sys.path``. Use
::
$ gdb -batch -ex 'python import rpyc'
in order to check whether this is necessary.
- Only local processes are supported.
- It is not possible to tell whether ``gdb.execute('continue')`` will be
executed synchronously or asynchronously (in gdbscripts it is always
synchronous). Therefore it is recommended to use either the explicitly
synchronous :func:`pwnlib.gdb.Gdb.continue_and_wait` or the explicitly
asynchronous :func:`pwnlib.gdb.Gdb.continue_nowait` instead.
Tips and Troubleshooting
------------------------
``NOPTRACE`` magic argument
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's quite cumbersom to comment and un-comment lines containing `attach`.
You can cause these lines to be a no-op by running your script with the
``NOPTRACE`` argument appended, or with ``PWNLIB_NOPTRACE=1`` in the environment.
::
$ python exploit.py NOPTRACE
[+] Starting local process '/bin/bash': Done
[!] Skipping debug attach since context.noptrace==True
...
Kernel Yama ptrace_scope
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Linux kernel v3.4 introduced a security mechanism called ``ptrace_scope``,
which is intended to prevent processes from debugging eachother unless there is
a direct parent-child relationship.
This causes some issues with the normal Pwntools workflow, since the process
hierarchy looks like this:
::
python ---> target
`--> gdb
Note that ``python`` is the parent of ``target``, not ``gdb``.
In order to avoid this being a problem, Pwntools uses the function
``prctl(PR_SET_PTRACER, PR_SET_PTRACER_ANY)``. This disables Yama
for any processes launched by Pwntools via :class:`.process` or via
:meth:`.ssh.process`.
Older versions of Pwntools did not perform the ``prctl`` step, and
required that the Yama security feature was disabled systemwide, which
requires ``root`` access.

def debug(args, gdbscript=None, gdb_args=None, exe=None, ssh=None, env=None, port=0, gdbserver_args=None, sysroot=None, api=False, **kwargs):
r"""
Launch a GDB server with the specified command line,
and launches GDB to attach to it.
Arguments:
args(list): Arguments to the process, similar to :class:`.process`.
gdbscript(str): GDB script to run.
gdb_args(list): List of additional arguments to pass to GDB.
exe(str): Path to the executable on disk
env(dict): Environment to start the binary in
ssh(:class:`.ssh`): Remote ssh session to use to launch the process.
port(int): Gdb port to use, default: random
gdbserver_args(list): List of additional arguments to pass to gdbserver
sysroot(str): Set an alternate system root. The system root is used to
load absolute shared library symbol files. This is useful to instruct
gdb to load a local version of binaries/libraries instead of downloading
them from the gdbserver, which is faster
api(bool): Enable access to GDB Python API.
Returns:
:class:`.process` or :class:`.ssh_channel`: A tube connected to the target process.
When ``api=True``, ``gdb`` member of the returned object contains a :class:`Gdb`
instance.
Notes:
The debugger is attached automatically, and you can debug everything
from the very beginning. This requires that both ``gdb`` and ``gdbserver``
are installed on your machine.
When GDB opens via :func:`debug`, it will initially be stopped on the very first
instruction of the dynamic linker (``ld.so``) for dynamically-linked binaries.
Only the target binary and the linker will be loaded in memory, so you cannot
set breakpoints on shared library routines like ``malloc`` since ``libc.so``
has not even been loaded yet.
There are several ways to handle this:
1. Set a breakpoint on the executable's entry point (generally, ``_start``)
- This is only invoked after all of the required shared libraries
are loaded.
- You can generally get the address via the GDB command ``info file``.
2. Use pending breakpoints via ``set breakpoint pending on``
- This has the side-effect of setting breakpoints for **every** function
which matches the name. For ``malloc``, this will generally set a
breakpoint in the executable's PLT, in the linker's internal ``malloc``,
and eventaully in ``libc``'s malloc.
3. Wait for libraries to be loaded with ``set stop-on-solib-event 1``
- There is no way to stop on any specific library being loaded, and sometimes
multiple libraries are loaded and only a single breakpoint is issued.
- Generally, you just add a few ``continue`` commands until things are set up
the way you want it to be.
Examples:
Create a new process, and stop it at 'main'
>>> io = gdb.debug('bash', '''
... break main
... continue
... ''')
Send a command to Bash
>>> io.sendline(b"echo hello")
>>> io.recvline(timeout=30)
b'hello\n'
Interact with the process
>>> io.interactive(timeout=1) # doctest: +SKIP
>>> io.close()
Create a new process, and stop it at '_start'
>>> io = gdb.debug('bash', '''
... # Wait until we hit the main executable's entry point
... break _start
... continue
...
... # Now set breakpoint on shared library routines
... break malloc
... break free
... continue
... ''')
Send a command to Bash
>>> io.sendline(b"echo hello")
>>> io.recvline(timeout=10)
b'hello\n'
Interact with the process
>>> io.interactive() # doctest: +SKIP
>>> io.close()
Start a new process with modified argv[0]
>>> io = gdb.debug(args=[b'\xde\xad\xbe\xef'], gdbscript='continue', exe="/bin/sh")
>>> io.sendline(b"echo $0")
>>> io.recvline(timeout=10)
b'\xde\xad\xbe\xef\n'
>>> io.close()
Demonstrate that LD_PRELOAD is respected
>>> io = process(["grep", "libc.so.6", "/proc/self/maps"])
>>> real_libc_path = io.recvline(timeout=1).split()[-1]
>>> io.close()
>>> import shutil
>>> local_path = shutil.copy(real_libc_path, "./local-libc.so") # make a copy of libc to demonstrate that it is loaded
>>> io = gdb.debug(["grep", "local-libc.so", "/proc/self/maps"], gdbscript="continue", env={"LD_PRELOAD": "./local-libc.so"})
>>> io.recvline(timeout=1).split()[-1] # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
b'.../local-libc.so'
>>> io.close()
>>> os.remove("./local-libc.so") # cleanup
Using SSH:
You can use :func:`debug` to spawn new processes on remote machines as well,
by using the ``ssh=`` keyword to pass in your :class:`.ssh` instance.
Connect to the SSH server and start a process on the server
>>> shell = ssh('travis', 'example.pwnme', password='demopass')
>>> io = gdb.debug(['whoami'],
... ssh = shell,
... gdbscript = '''
... break main
... continue
... ''')
Send a command to Bash
>>> io.sendline(b"echo hello")
Interact with the process
>>> io.interactive() # doctest: +SKIP
>>> io.close()
Using a modified args[0] on a remote process
>>> io = gdb.debug(args=[b'\xde\xad\xbe\xef'], gdbscript='continue', exe="/bin/sh", ssh=shell)
>>> io.sendline(b"echo $0")
>>> io.recvline(timeout=10)
b'$ \xde\xad\xbe\xef\n'
>>> io.close()
Using an empty args[0] on a remote process
>>> io = gdb.debug(args=[], gdbscript='continue', exe="/bin/sh", ssh=shell)
>>> io.sendline(b"echo $0")
>>> io.recvline(timeout=10)
b'$ \n'
>>> io.close()
Using GDB Python API:
.. doctest::
:skipif: is_python2
Debug a new process
>>> io = gdb.debug(['echo', 'foo'], api=True)
or using ssh
>>> shell = ssh('travis', 'example.pwnme', password='demopass')
>>> ssh_io = gdb.debug(['/bin/echo', 'foo'], ssh=shell, api=True)
Stop at 'write'
>>> bp = io.gdb.Breakpoint('write', temporary=True)
>>> io.gdb.continue_and_wait()
>>> ssh_bp = ssh_io.gdb.Breakpoint('write', temporary=True)
>>> ssh_io.gdb.continue_and_wait()
Dump 'count'
>>> count = io.gdb.parse_and_eval('$rdx')
>>> long = io.gdb.lookup_type('long')
>>> int(count.cast(long))
4
>>> count = ssh_io.gdb.parse_and_eval('$rdx')
>>> long = ssh_io.gdb.lookup_type('long')
>>> int(count.cast(long))
4
Resume the program
>>> io.gdb.continue_nowait()
>>> io.recvline(timeout=1)
b'foo\n'

>>> ssh_io.gdb.continue_nowait()
>>> ssh_io.recvline(timeout=1)

r"""
Start GDB in a new terminal and attach to `target`.
Arguments:
target: The target to attach to.
gdbscript(:obj:`str` or :obj:`file`): GDB script to run after attaching.
exe(str): The path of the target binary.
arch(str): Architechture of the target binary. If `exe` known GDB will
detect the architechture automatically (if it is supported).
gdb_args(list): List of additional arguments to pass to GDB.
sysroot(str): Set an alternate system root. The system root is used to
load absolute shared library symbol files. This is useful to instruct
gdb to load a local version of binaries/libraries instead of downloading
them from the gdbserver, which is faster
api(bool): Enable access to GDB Python API.
Returns:
PID of the GDB process (or the window which it is running in).
When ``api=True``, a (PID, :class:`Gdb`) tuple.
Notes:
The ``target`` argument is very robust, and can be any of the following:
:obj:`int`
PID of a process
:obj:`str`
Process name. The youngest process is selected.
:obj:`tuple`
Host, port pair of a listening ``gdbserver``
Tries to look up the target exe from the ``gdbserver`` commandline,
requires explicit ``exe`` argument if the target exe is not in the commandline.
:class:`.process`
Process to connect to
:class:`.sock`
Connected socket. The executable on the other end of the connection is attached to.
Can be any socket type, including :class:`.listen` or :class:`.remote`.
:class:`.ssh_channel`
Remote process spawned via :meth:`.ssh.process`.
This will use the GDB installed on the remote machine.
If a password is required to connect, the ``sshpass`` program must be installed.
Examples:
Attach to a process by PID
>>> pid = gdb.attach(1234) # doctest: +SKIP
Attach to the youngest process by name
>>> pid = gdb.attach('bash') # doctest: +SKIP
Attach a debugger to a :class:`.process` tube and automate interaction
>>> io = process('bash')
