Slither, the Solidity source analyzer

lmao test esestfdjhf a adfadfadfa

Slither is a Solidity static analysis framework written in Python 3. It runs a suite of vulnerability detectors, prints visual information about contract details, and provides an API to easily write custom analyses. Slither enables developers to find vulnerabilities, enhance their code comprehension, and quickly prototype custom analyses.

Features

• Detects vulnerable Solidity code with low false positives (see the list of trophies)
• Identifies where the error condition occurs in the source code
• Easily integrates into continuous integration and Truffle builds
• Built-in 'printers' quickly report crucial contract information
• Detector API to write custom analyses in Python
• Ability to analyze contracts written with Solidity >= 0.4
• Intermediate representation (SlithIR) enables simple, high-precision analyses
• Correctly parses 99.9% of all public Solidity code
• Average execution time of less than 1 second per contract

Bugs and Optimizations Detection

Run Slither on a Truffle/Embark/Dapp/Etherlime/Hardhat application:

slither .

Run Slither on a single file:

slither tests/uninitialized.sol

Integration

• For GitHub action integration, use slither-action.
• To generate a Markdown report, use slither [target] --checklist.
• To generate a Markdown with GitHub source code highlighting, use slither [target] --checklist --markdown-root https://github.com/ORG/REPO/blob/COMMIT/ (replace ORG, REPO, COMMIT)

Use solc-select if your contracts require older versions of solc. For additional configuration, see the usage documentation.

How to install

Slither requires Python 3.8+ and solc, the Solidity compiler.

Using Pip

pip3 install slither-analyzer

Using Git

git clone https://github.com/crytic/slither.git && cd slither
python3 setup.py install

We recommend using a Python virtual environment, as detailed in the Developer Installation Instructions, if you prefer to install Slither via git.

Using Docker

Use the eth-security-toolbox docker image. It includes all of our security tools and every major version of Solidity in a single image. /home/share will be mounted to /share in the container.

docker pull trailofbits/eth-security-toolbox

To share a directory in the container:

docker run -it -v /home/share:/share trailofbits/eth-security-toolbox

Getting Help

Feel free to stop by our Slack channel (#ethereum) for help using or extending Slither.

• The Printer documentation describes the information Slither is capable of visualizing for each contract.

• The Detector documentation describes how to write a new vulnerability analyses.

• The API documentation describes the methods and objects available for custom analyses.

• The SlithIR documentation describes the SlithIR intermediate representation.

FAQ

How do I exclude mocks or tests?

• View our documentation on path filtering.

How do I fix "unknown file" or compilation issues?

• Because slither requires the solc AST, it must have all dependencies available. If a contract has dependencies, slither contract.sol will fail. Instead, use slither . in the parent directory of contracts/ (you should see contracts/ when you run ls). If you have a node_modules/ folder, it must be in the same directory as contracts/. To verify that this issue is related to slither, run the compilation command for the framework you are using e.g npx hardhat compile. That must work successfully; otherwise, slither's compilation engine, crytic-compile, cannot generate the AST.
