# OSS-Fuzz: Continuous Fuzzing for Open Source Software
|
|
|
|
[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.

|
|
|
|
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 and Python code. Other languages
|
|
supported by [LLVM] may work too. OSS-Fuzz supports fuzzing x86_64 and i386
|
|
builds.
