Initial Project Skeleton pikepdf (#12035) pikepdf is a Python library allowing creation, manipulation and repair of PDFs. It provides a Pythonic wrapper around the C++ PDF content transformation library, QPDF. It is used by over 3800 repositories and 90 packages. Most notably, OCRmyPDF (12,400+ stars) uses pikepdf to graft OCR text layers onto existing PDFs, to examine the contents of input PDFs, and to optimize PDFs. Additionally, PDFArranger (3000+ stars) depends on pikepdf and is a Python application that provides a graphical user interface to rotate, crop and rearrange PDFs. It is important that fuzzing be integrarted into pikepdf as the domino effect of a high or critical vulnerability in pikepdf would cause numerous other open source software products to be vulnerable as well. Approval from the upstream maintainer can be found here: https://github.com/pikepdf/pikepdf/issues/587
Fuzz testing is a well-known technique for uncovering programming errors in software. Many of these detectable errors, like buffer overflow, can have serious security implications. Google has found thousands of security vulnerabilities and stability bugs by deploying guided in-process fuzzing of Chrome components, and we now want to share that service with the open source community.
In cooperation with the Core Infrastructure Initiative and the OpenSSF, OSS-Fuzz aims to make common open source software more secure and stable by combining modern fuzzing techniques with scalable, distributed execution. Projects that do not qualify for OSS-Fuzz (e.g. closed source) can run their own instances of ClusterFuzz or ClusterFuzzLite.
We support the libFuzzer, AFL++, and Honggfuzz fuzzing engines in combination with Sanitizers, as well as ClusterFuzz, a distributed fuzzer execution environment and reporting tool.
Currently, OSS-Fuzz supports C/C++, Rust, Go, Python, Java/JVM, and JavaScript code. Other languages supported by LLVM may work too. OSS-Fuzz supports fuzzing x86_64 and i386 builds.
Read our detailed documentation to learn how to use OSS-Fuzz.
As of August 2023, OSS-Fuzz has helped identify and fix over 10,000 vulnerabilities and 36,000 bugs across 1,000 projects.
