Lab 4: Delta Debugging
Building a delta debugger for minimizing inputs that cause a
program to crash — making it easier for the user to
understand the bug.
In this lab, you will build a delta debugger that implements
an efficient algorithm for finding a 1-minimal crashing input
given a large crashing input.
You will combine this tool with a fuzzer like the one you built
in lab3 to minimize the crashing inputs found by the fuzzer.
The code for Lab 4 is located under cis547vm/lab4/.
We will frequently refer to this directory lab4.
Open the lab4 directory in VSCode following the Instructions from
Course VM document.
This lab builds on top of the previous labs.
We have provided you with pre-compiled binaries for
the runtime library,
InstrumentPass for coverage and sanitize,
and a fuzzer executable; you can find them under lab4/lib.
Their implementations are identical to the implementations in lab3.
This lab uses python to implement delta debugger.
We do so by building a python package called delta_debugger.
To build and install the package, run:
/lab4$ make install
Unlike with c++, you won’t need to re-run this command
after making changes to your code.
Further, you will be able to use your delta debugger using the
delta-debugger command from the terminal.
The delta-debugger tool performs delta debugging to shrink
a crashing input to a program.
To use delta-debugger with a program you first need to find some input
that will crash the program.
To find such an input we will use a fuzzer.
Just like lab3, to run the fuzzer you will first need to instrument
the program and setup appropriate output directories
where fuzzer will store its results.
/lab4/test$ make sanity1 # Instrument and build sanity1
/lab4/test$ mkdir fuzz_output_sanity1 # Create output directory
# Run the fuzzer on sanity1 with a timeout of 6 seconds.
/lab4/test$ timeout 6s fuzzer ./sanity1 fuzz_input fuzz_output_sanity1
You can also use the Makefile to instrument, build,
setup output directory and run the fuzzer for you:
/lab4/test$ make sanity1 # Instrument and build sanity1
/lab4/test$ make fuzz-sanity1 # Run the fuzzer on sanity1
Once you have run the fuzzer you will find inputs
that couse the program to crash under
test/fuzz_output_sanity1/failure.
fuzz_output_sanity1
├── success
├── randomSeed.txt
└── failure # Inputs that cause a crash.
├── input0
├── input1
└── inputN
You can now use delta-debugger to minimize the crashing
inputs found by the fuzzer.
/lab4/test$ delta-debugger ./sanity1 fuzz_output_sanity1/failure/input1
The last argument is path to the crashing input and depends on which input you want to minimize.
In this example the reduced input is stored in fuzz_output/failure/input1.delta.
Additionally, before running another invocation of delta-debugger, make sure to clean up the fuzz_output directory.
You can do this by running:
/lab4/test$ rm -rf fuzz_output_sanity1 && mkdir fuzz_output_sanity1
Lab Instructions
You will need to edit the lab4/delta_debugger/delta.py file to build a delta debugging tool.
We have provided a template function — delta_debug — for you to
implement your minimization logic.
The delta_debug function takes a target program, and input that causes target to crash,
and is supposed to return a 1-minimal input that still crashes the target program.
To perform delta debugging, you will have to repeatedly run target with various input strings.
We provide a run_target function to help you run target program with an input.
It returns a value of 0 if the target didn’t crash.
def run_target(target: str, input: Union[str, bytes]) -> int:
Run the target program with input on its stdin.
:param target: The target program to run.
:param input: The input to pass to the target program.
:return: The return code of the target program.
For this lab you will modify the delta_debug function to implement the algorithm to
you learn in class to find a 1-minimal crashing input.
You likely want to add a helper function for example called _delta_debug
that takes a target, an input and a parameter n
that correspond to search granularity, and performs one iteration of delta debugging algorithm to
return the next input and n.
Example Input and Output
Your delta debugger should run on any executable that accepts input from stdin.
You run the delta debugger on a test program by passing in the following arguments:
delta-debugger ./test crashing-input
And the delta debugger will store its result in crashing-input.delta file.
As a specific example consider the string: “abckdanmvelcbaghcajbtkzxmntplwqsrakstuvbxyz”, which causes test3 to fail:
/lab4/test$ echo -n “abckdanmvelcbaghcajbtkzxmntplwqsrakstuvbxyz” > tmp
/lab4/test$ delta-debugger ./test3 tmp
/lab4/test$ cat tmp.delta
abckdanmvel
Items to Submit
Once you are done with the lab, you can create a submission.zip file by using the following command:
lab4$ make submit
submission.zip created successfully.
Then upload the submission.zip file to Gradescope.
