Simple static analysis(SA) library for .Net
Library for creating simple static analysis(SA) diagnostics and analyzing .Net assemblies at the IL-code level. Library provides a predefined subset of patterns for analyzing security\performance or compatibility threats.
Powered by ILReader library.
How to create a simple pattern:
At first, create a class library and reference to ILReader.Core and ILSA.Core nuget packages:
<ItemGroup>
<PackageReference Include="ILReader.Core" Version="1.0.0.*" />
<PackageReference Include="ILSA.Core" Version="1.0.0.*" />
</ItemGroup>
Once you have the class library set up and the necessary nuget packages referenced, you can create a static class for diagnostic with
a single static Match
method. This method will define a pattern for specific rule and pass this pattern into
the static MethodBodyPattern.Match
method available from the ILSA.Core
library:
public static class BoxingOnStringMethodCalls {
static readonly Func<IInstruction, bool>[] matches = new Func<IInstruction, bool>[] {
new Func<IInstruction, bool>(i => Boxing.IsBoxing(i.OpCode) && Boxing.IsValueType(i.Operand)),
new Func<IInstruction, bool>(i => Call.IsCall(i.OpCode) && IsFormatOrConcatMethod(i.Operand)),
};
static bool IsFormatOrConcatMethod(object? operand) {
if(!(operand is MethodBase method) || method.DeclaringType != typeof(string))
return false;
return method.Name == "Format" || method.Name == "Concat";
}
public static bool Match(IILReader instructions, StringBuilder errors, out int[] captures) {
return MethodBodyPattern.Match(matches, instructions, errors, out captures);
}
}
To implement some rules you can also use some helper methods from the ILSA.Core
library:
static readonly Type hashsetType = typeof(HashSet<>);
static bool IsHashSetMethod(object? operand) {
return operand is MethodBase method && Call.IsMethodOfGenericType(method, hashsetType);
}
With the use of the annotation attribute Display
, you can decorate your diagnostic with a name and a descriptive text (in markdown format)
for further displaying in visual client.
[Display(Order = (int)ProcessingSeverity.Informational,
Name = @"Avoid using HashSet.Add\HashSet.Remove after HashSet.Contains call",
Description = "ILSA.Core.Assets.MD.AvoidUsingHashSetAddRemoveAfterContainsCheck.md")]
public static bool Match(IILReader instructions, StringBuilder errors, out int[] captures) { ... }
The corresponding markdown file should be embedded into you library as EmbeddedResource
.
You can test your diagnostic by downloading a Visual Client (free) and loading a library with diagnostic into patterns section.
