# OSS-Fuzz
[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], OSS-Fuzz aims to make
common open source software more secure and stable by combining modern fuzzing
techniques with scalable, distributed execution.
[Core Infrastructure Initiative]: https://www.coreinfrastructure.org/
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.
[libFuzzer]: https://llvm.org/docs/LibFuzzer.html
[AFL]: https://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/
[Honggfuzz]: https://github.com/google/honggfuzz
[Sanitizers]: https://github.com/google/sanitizers
[ClusterFuzz]: https://github.com/google/clusterfuzz
Currently, OSS-Fuzz supports C/C++, Rust, and Go code. Other languages supported
by [LLVM] may work too. OSS-Fuzz supports fuzzing x86_64 and i386 builds.

## Learn more about fuzzing
This documentation describes how to use OSS-Fuzz service for your open source
project. To learn more about fuzzing in general, we recommend reading [libFuzzer
tutorial] and the other docs in [google/fuzzing] repository. These and some
other resources are listed on the [useful links] page.
