Seccomp Tools

Provide powerful tools for seccomp analysis.

This project is targeted to (but not limited to) analyze seccomp sandbox in CTF pwn challenges. Some features might be CTF-specific, but still useful for analyzing seccomp in real-case.

Features

• Dump - Automatically dumps seccomp-bpf from execution file(s).
• Disasm - Converts bpf to human readable format.
  • Simple decompile.
  • Display syscall names and arguments when possible.
  • Colorful!
• Asm - Write seccomp rules is so easy!
• Emu - Emulates seccomp rules.
• Supports multi-architectures.

Installation

Available on RubyGems.org!

$ gem install seccomp-tools

If you failed when compiling, try:

sudo apt install gcc ruby-dev

# List of commands:
#
#   asm Seccomp bpf assembler.
#   disasm  Disassemble seccomp bpf.

$ seccomp-tools dump --help
dump - Automatically dump seccomp bpf from execution file(s).
NOTE : This function is only available on Linux.

Usage: seccomp-tools dump [exec] [options]
-c, --sh-exec           Executes the given command (via sh).
Use this option if want to pass arguments or do pipe things to the execution file.
e.g. use -c "./bin > /dev/null" to dump seccomp without being mixed with stdout.
-f, --format FORMAT              Output format. FORMAT can only be one of .
Default: disasm
-l, --limit LIMIT                Limit the number of calling "prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP)".
The target process will be killed whenever its calling times reaches LIMIT.
Default: 1
-o, --output FILE                Output result into FILE instead of stdout.
If multiple seccomp syscalls have been invoked (see --limit),
results will be written to FILE, FILE_1, FILE_2.. etc.
For example, "--output out.bpf" and the output files are out.bpf, out_1.bpf, ...
-p, --pid PID                    Dump installed seccomp filters of the existing process.
You must have CAP_SYS_ADMIN (e.g. be root) in order to use this option.

dump

asm

Assembles the seccomp rules into raw bytes. It's very useful when one wants to write custom seccomp rules.

Supports labels for jumping and uses syscall names directly. See examples below. ```bash $ seccomp-tools asm

asm - Seccomp bpf assembler.

Usage: seccomp-tools asm IN_FILE [options]

-o, --output FILE Output result into FILE instead of stdout.

-f, --format FORMAT Output format. FORMAT can only be one of .

Default: inspect

-a, --arch ARCH Specify architecture.

Supported architectures are .

Default: amd64

Input file for asm

$ cat spec/data/libseccomp.asm

# check if arch is X86_64

A = arch

A == ARCHX8664 ? next : dead

A = sys_number

A >= 0x40000000 ? dead : next

A == write ? ok : next

A == close ? ok : next

A == dup ? ok : next

A == exit ? ok : next

return ERRNO(5)

ok:

return ALLOW

dead:

return KILL
