BAT — Autonomous Vulnerability Investigator for C Memory Bugs

Lightweight Python tool that scans C projects for common memory vulnerabilities (use-after-free, buffer overflows, integer overflows) and generates evidence-backed reports and suggested patches.

Quick start

1. Create a virtual environment and install dependencies:

python -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\activate
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Run the scanner on a C project:

python -m BAT.cli scan path/to/c/project -o output

Reports are generated in output/ as report.json and report.md.

Development

• Run unit tests (if any):

python -m pytest

Files

• BAT/ — main package
• test_project/ — example vulnerable code used for local testing
• output/ — default output directory (ignored by git)
