ABRT-ACTION-ANALYZ(1)
β¨ NAME β¨
okay bestie, welcome to ABRT-ACTION-ANALYZ(1) from the ABRT Manual π
this page is all about abrt-action-analyze-vulnerability, which gives you the tea on how exploitable a crash might be π₯
π§ SYNOPSIS π§
abrt-action-analyze-vulnerability
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so this tool expects a file called coredump to be sitting in the current directory π then it runs the abrt-gdb-exploitable gdb plugin on that file π the results get saved in a file called exploitable in the current directory, with info about the likely crash reason and an exploitable rating (check the EXPLOITABLE RATING section below, it's giving main character energy β¨). if the rating lands between <0-3>, no output gets generated and the tool silently exits with 0 exit code π€«
this tool needs both gdb and eu-readelf executables placed in PATH π£οΈ if either one is missing, the tool silently exits with 0 exit code too, so no drama, just vibes π«
π¦ EXPLOITABLE RATING π¦
bestie, the exploitable rating is a score on a scale of 0-9 π it's given to a coredump based on the likely reason the program crashed and whether it could've been caused by a potentially exploitable security issue π΅οΈββοΈ
the lower numbers, 0-3, are reserved for reasons that are highly unlikely to be security issues πΈ the higher numbers, 4-9, are reserved for potentially dangerous crashes π¨
ngl, higher scores don't automatically mean security problems π but they can totally help with debugging and figuring out how severe the issue is π
