Honggfuzz is capable of performing feedback-guided (code coverage driven) fuzzing. It can utilize the following sources of data:
-fsanitize-coverage=bb
)-finstrument-functions
or -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc[-guard],indirect-calls,trace-cmp
or both)Developers should provide the initial file corpus which will be gradually improved upon. It can even comprise of a single 1-byte initial file, and honggfuzz will try to generate better inputs starting from there.
-fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard,indirect-calls,trace-cmp
- Clang >= 4.0-fsanitize-coverage=bb
- Clang >= 3.7-finstrument-functions
- GCC or Clang-fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc,indirect-calls
- Clang >= 3.9Note: The -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard,indirect-calls,trace-cmp set of flags will be automatically added to clang's command-line switches when using hfuzz-clang binary.
$ [honggfuzz_dir]/honggfuzz/hfuzz_cc/hfuzz-clang terminal-test.c -o terminal-test
The implemented strategy is trying to identify files which add new code coverage (or increased instruction/branch counters). Then those inputs are added (dynamically stored in memory) corpus, and reused during following fuzzing rounds
There are 2 phases of feedback-driven the fuzzing:
In order to make this mode work, one needs to compile the fuzzed tool (xmllint here) with -fsanitize=address -fsanitize-coverage=bb

Here you can use the following:
-finstrument-functions
(less-precise)-fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard,indirect-calls,trace-cmp
(trace-cmp adds additional comparison map to the instrumentation)Note: The -fsanitize-coverage=trace-pc-guard,indirect-calls,trace-cmp set of flags will be automatically added to clang's command-line switches when using hfuzz-clang binary. The hfuzz-clang binary will also link your code with libhfuzz.a
Two persistent modes can be used here:
$ cat test.c #include <inttypes.h> #include <testlib.h> // Our API to test extern int LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput(uint8_t **buf, size_t *len); int LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput(uint8_t *buf, size_t len) { _FuncFromFuzzedLib_(buf, len); return 0; }
$ [honggfuzz_dir]/honggfuzz/hfuzz_cc/hfuzz-clang -c fuzzedlib.c -o fuzzedlib.o $ [honggfuzz_dir]/honggfuzz/hfuzz_cc/hfuzz-clang test.c fuzzedlib.o -o test $ [honggfuzz_dir]/honggfuzz -P -f INPUT.corpus -- ./test
LLVMFuzzerInitialize(int *argc, char **argv)
is supported as well
$ cat test.c #include <inttypes.h> #include <testlib.h> // Our API to test // Get input from the fuzzer extern void HF_ITER(uint8_t **buf, size_t *len); int main(void) { for (;;) { uint8_t *buf; size_t len; HF_ITER(&buf, &len); _FuncFromFuzzedLib_(buf, len); } return 0; }
$ [honggfuzz_dir]/honggfuzz/hfuzz_cc/hfuzz-clang -c fuzzedlib.c -o fuzzedlib.o $ [honggfuzz_dir]/honggfuzz/hfuzz_cc/hfuzz-clang test.c fuzzedlib.o -o test $ [honggfuzz_dir]/honggfuzz -P -f INPUT.corpus -- ./test
Example:

PS. You can also use a non-persistent mode here (without the -P flag), in which case you need to read data either from a file passed at command-line (___FILE___
), or from the standard input (e.g. with read(0, buf, sizeof(buf))
. The compile-time instrumentation will still work in such case.
This mode will take into consideration pairs (tuples) of jumps, recording unique from-to jump pairs. The data is taken from the Intel BTS CPU registers.

This mode will utilize Interl's PT (Process Trace) subsystem, which should be way faster than BTS (Branch Trace Store), but will currently produce less precise results.

This mode tries to maximize the number of instructions taken during each process iteration. The counters will be taken from the Linux perf subsystems. Intel, AMD and even other CPU architectures are supported for this mode.

As above, it will try to maximize the number of branches taken by CPU on behalf of the fuzzed process (here: djpeg.static) while performing each fuzzing iteration. Intel, AMD and even other CPU architectures are supported for this mode.
