About OWASP WSFuzzer

Fuzz testing or fuzzing is a software testing technique, that basically consists in finding implementation bugs using malformed/semi-malformed data injection in an automated fashion. Let’s consider an integer in a program, which stores the result of a user’s choice between 3 questions. When the user picks one, the choice will be 0, 1, or 2, which makes three practical cases. Integers are stored as a static size variable. If the default switch case hasn’t been implemented securely, the program may crash and lead to “classical” security issues. Fuzzing is the art of automatic bug finding, and its role is to find software implementation faults and identify them if possible. A fuzzer is a program that automatically injects semi-random data into a program/stack and detects bugs. The data-generation part is made of generators, and vulnerability identification relies on debugging tools. Generators usually use combinations of static fuzzing vectors.

Supports multiple coverages guided fuzzing engines for optimal results (with ensemble fuzzing and fuzzing strategies). Statistics for analyzing fuzzer performance, and crash rates. Easy to use web interface for management and viewing crashes. Support for various authentication providers using Firebase. Support for black-box fuzzing, test case minimization, and regression finding through bisection.

LibFuzzer
LibFuzzer
LibFuzzer is an in-process, coverage-guided, evolutionary fuzzing engine. LibFuzzer is linked with the library under test, and feeds fuzzed inputs to the library via a specific fuzzing entry point (or target function); the fuzzer then tracks which areas of the code are reached, and generates mutations on the corpus of input data in order to maximize the code coverage. The code coverage information for libFuzzer is provided by LLVM’s SanitizerCoverage instrumentation. LibFuzzer is still fully supported in that important bugs will get fixed. The first step in using libFuzzer on a library is to implement a fuzz target, a function that accepts an array of bytes and does something interesting with these bytes using the API under test. Note that this fuzz target does not depend on libFuzzer in any way so it is possible and even desirable to use it with other fuzzing engines like AFL and/or Radamsa.

Fuzzing Project
Fuzzing Project
Fuzzing is a powerful strategy to find bugs in software. The idea is quite simple, which is to generate a large number of randomly malformed inputs for the software to parse and see what happens. If the program crashes then something is likely wrong. While fuzzing is a well-known strategy, it is surprisingly easy to find bugs, often with security implications, in widely used software. Memory access errors are the errors most likely to be exposed when fuzzing software that is written in C/C++. While they differ in the details, the core problem is often the same, the software reads or writes to the wrong memory locations. A modern Linux or BSD system ships a large number of basic tools that do some kind of file displaying and parsing. In their current state, most of these tools are not suitable for untrusted inputs. On the other hand, we have powerful tools these days that allow us to find and analyze these bugs.
