1libfido2 can be fuzzed using AFL or libFuzzer, with or without
2ASAN/MSAN/UBSAN.
3
4AFL is more convenient when fuzzing the path from the authenticator to
5libfido2 in an existing application. To do so, use preload-snoop.c with a real
6authenticator to obtain an initial corpus, rebuild libfido2 with -DFUZZ=ON, and
7use preload-fuzz.c to read device data from stdin.
8
9libFuzzer is better suited for bespoke fuzzers; see fuzz_cred.c, fuzz_credman.c,
10fuzz_assert.c, fuzz_hid.c, and fuzz_mgmt.c for examples. To build these
11harnesses, use -DFUZZ=ON -DLIBFUZZER=ON.
12
13To run under ASAN/MSAN/UBSAN, libfido2 needs to be linked against flavours of
14libcbor and OpenSSL built with the respective sanitiser. In order to keep
15memory utilisation at a manageable level, you can either enforce limits at
16the OS level (e.g. cgroups on Linux), or patch libcbor with the diff below.
