The design of this is actually quite simple and +very similar to that used when instrumenting applications compiled from source. + +### Address Sanitizer Basics + +When Address Sanitizer is used to instrument programs built from source, the +compiler first adds a dependency (`DT_NEEDED` entry) for the Address Sanitizer +dynamic shared object (DSO). This shared object contains the main logic for Address +Sanitizer, including setting and managing up the shadow memory. It also provides +replacement implementations for a number of functions in standard libraries. + +These replacements include things like `malloc` and `free` which allows for those +allocations to be marked in the shadow memory, but also a number of other fuctions. +Consider `memcpy` for example, this is instrumented to validate the paramters +(test the source and destination buffers against the shadow memory. This is much +easier than instrumenting those standard libraries since, first it would require +you to re-compile them and secondly it would mean that the instrumentation would +be applied at a more expensive granular level. Lastly, load-widening (typically +found in highy optimized code) can also make this instrumentation more difficult. + +Since the DSO is loaded before all of the standard libraries (in fact it insists +on being first), the dynamic loader will use it to resolve imports from other +modules which depend on it. + +### FASAN Implementation + +FASAN takes a similar approach. It requires the user to add the Address Sanitizer +DSO to the `AFL_PRELOAD` environment variable such that it is loaded into the target. +Again, it must be first in the list. This means that it is not necessary to +instrument the standard libraries to detect when an application has provided an +incorrect argument to `memcpy` for example. This avoids issues with load-widening +and should also mean a huge improvement in performance. + +FASAN then adds instrumentation for any instrucutions which use memory operands and +then calls into the `__asan_loadN` and `__asan_storeN` functions provided by the DSO +to validate memory accesses against the shadow memory. + ## TODO -The next features to be added are x86 support, integration with FuzzBench and -support for ASAN.
