Conkas

Conkas is a modular static analysis tool for Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) based on symbolic execution. It is capable of analysing Ethereum Smart Contracts written in Solidity or the compiled runtime bytecode. Being a modular tool means that anyone can add easily their custom modules to analyse specific vulnerabilities. It uses Z3 as the SMT Solver and Rattle as the Intermediate Representation (IR). However, to fit Conkas needs a modified version of Rattle is needed and that version can be found here. Conkas is part of my master's thesis.

Usage

You can use Conkas via the Command-Line Interface (CLI).

If you have a Smart Contract written in Solidity and you want to search only for Reentrancy vulnerabilities you can type:

$ python3 conkas.py -vt reentrancy -s some_file.sol

If you have just the compiled runtime bytecode hex string and want to search for all types of vulnerabilities that Conkas provide you can type:

$ python3 conkas.py some_file.bin

Dependencies

You can use the requirements.txt file to install all dependencies via:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

or create a python environment:

$ python3 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Detected Vulnerabilities

Conkas already have 5 modules to detect different categories of vulnerabilities. Conkas followed the DASP Top 10 when developing the modules. The 5 modules are:

Unit Tests

Conkas has several unit tests for testing the execution of EVM instructions. These tests can be found in tests/ folder.

Results

SmartBugs was used to evaluate Conkas. The results can be found in the following tables. A vulnerability is considered true positive if the tool can give the category in which that vulnerability belongs and the line number in the source code of the Smart Contract with an interval of -5 to +5.

Add Custom Modules

To add custom modules you need to create a python file with one function that has the following signature:

def vuln_x_analyse(traces: [Trace], find_all: bool) -> [Vulnerability]:
  pass

the variable find_all when have the value true means that the function should return all the vulnerabilities otherwise the function should return and stop when it finds only one vulnerability. You should put this file in vuln_finder/ folder. Then you need to modify the __init__.py in that folder and add to the available_modules object a line like this:

from vuln_finder.vuln_name import vuln_x_analyse

available_modules = {
  ...,
  'vuln_name': vuln_x_analyse
}

'vuln_name' should be the name of the vulnerability that you detect and 'vuln_x_analyse' should be the name of the function that makes the analysis.
