1Fuzzing OpenSSL

4OpenSSL can use either LibFuzzer or AFL to do fuzzing.

9How to fuzz OpenSSL with [libfuzzer](http://llvm.org/docs/LibFuzzer.html),
10starting from a vanilla+OpenSSH server Ubuntu install.
11
12With `clang` from a package manager
13-----------------------------------
14
15Install `clang`, which [ships with `libfuzzer`](http://llvm.org/docs/LibFuzzer.html#fuzzer-usage)
16since version 6.0:
17
18 sudo apt-get install clang
19
20Configure `openssl` for fuzzing. For now, you'll still need to pass in the path
21to the `libFuzzer` library file while configuring; this is represented as
22`$PATH_TO_LIBFUZZER` below. A typical value would be
23`/usr/lib/llvm-7/lib/clang/7.0.1/lib/linux/libclang_rt.fuzzer-x86_64.a`.
24
25 CC=clang ./config enable-fuzz-libfuzzer \
26 --with-fuzzer-lib=$PATH_TO_LIBFUZZER \
27 -DPEDANTIC enable-asan enable-ubsan no-shared \
28 -DFUZZING_BUILD_MODE_UNSAFE_FOR_PRODUCTION \
29 -fsanitize=fuzzer-no-link \
30 enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 -fno-sanitize=alignment \
31 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers enable-rc5 enable-md2 \
32 enable-ssl3 enable-ssl3-method enable-nextprotoneg \
33 --debug
34
35Compile:
36
37 sudo apt-get install make
38 make clean
39 LDCMD=clang++ make -j4
40
41Finally, perform the actual fuzzing:
42
43 fuzz/helper.py $FUZZER
44
45where $FUZZER is one of the executables in `fuzz/`.
46It will run until you stop it.
47
48If you get a crash, you should find a corresponding input file in
49`fuzz/corpora/$FUZZER-crash/`.
50
51With `clang` from source/pre-built binaries
52-------------------------------------------
53
54You may also wish to use a pre-built binary from the [LLVM Download
55site](http://releases.llvm.org/download.html), or to [build `clang` from
56source](https://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html). After adding `clang` to your
57path and locating the `libfuzzer` library file, the procedure for configuring
58fuzzing is the same, except that you also need to specify
59a `--with-fuzzer-include` option, which should be the parent directory of the
60prebuilt fuzzer library. This is represented as `$PATH_TO_LIBFUZZER_DIR` below.
61
62 CC=clang ./config enable-fuzz-libfuzzer \
63 --with-fuzzer-include=$PATH_TO_LIBFUZZER_DIR \
64 --with-fuzzer-lib=$PATH_TO_LIBFUZZER \
65 -DPEDANTIC enable-asan enable-ubsan no-shared \
66 -DFUZZING_BUILD_MODE_UNSAFE_FOR_PRODUCTION \
67 -fsanitize=fuzzer-no-link \
68 enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 -fno-sanitize=alignment \
69 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers enable-rc5 enable-md2 \
70 enable-ssl3 enable-ssl3-method enable-nextprotoneg \
71 --debug
72
73AFL
74---
75
76This is an alternative to using LibFuzzer.
77
78Configure for fuzzing:
79
80 sudo apt-get install afl-clang
81 CC=afl-clang-fast ./config enable-fuzz-afl no-shared no-module \
82 -DPEDANTIC enable-tls1_3 enable-weak-ssl-ciphers enable-rc5 \
83 enable-md2 enable-ssl3 enable-ssl3-method enable-nextprotoneg \
84 enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 -fno-sanitize=alignment \
85 --debug
86 make clean
87 make
88
89The following options can also be enabled: enable-asan, enable-ubsan, enable-msan
90
91Run one of the fuzzers:
92
93 afl-fuzz -i fuzz/corpora/$FUZZER -o fuzz/corpora/$FUZZER/out fuzz/$FUZZER
94
95Where $FUZZER is one of the executables in `fuzz/`.
96
97Reproducing issues
98------------------
99
100If a fuzzer generates a reproducible error, you can reproduce the problem using
101the fuzz/*-test binaries and the file generated by the fuzzer. They binaries
102don't need to be built for fuzzing, there is no need to set CC or the call
103config with enable-fuzz-* or -fsanitize-coverage, but some of the other options
104above might be needed. For instance the enable-asan or enable-ubsan option might
105be useful to show you when the problem happens. For the client and server fuzzer
106it might be needed to use -DFUZZING_BUILD_MODE_UNSAFE_FOR_PRODUCTION to
107reproduce the generated random numbers.
108
109To reproduce the crash you can run:
110
111 fuzz/$FUZZER-test $file
112
113To do all the tests of a specific fuzzer such as asn1 you can run
114
115 fuzz/asn1-test fuzz/corpora/asn1
116or
117 make test TESTS=fuzz_test_asn1
118
119To run several fuzz tests you can use for instance:
120
121 make test TESTS='test_fuzz_cmp test_fuzz_cms'
122
123To run all fuzz tests you can use:
124
125 make test TESTS='test_fuzz_*'
126
127Random numbers
128--------------
129
130The client and server fuzzer normally generate random numbers as part of the TLS
131connection setup. This results in the coverage of the fuzzing corpus changing
132depending on the random numbers. This also has an effect for coverage of the
133rest of the test suite and you see the coverage change for each commit even when
134no code has been modified.
135
136Since we want to maximize the coverage of the fuzzing corpus, the client and
137server fuzzer will use predictable numbers instead of the random numbers. This
138is controlled by the FUZZING_BUILD_MODE_UNSAFE_FOR_PRODUCTION define.
139
140The coverage depends on the way the numbers are generated. We don't disable any
141check of hashes, but the corpus has the correct hash in it for the random
142numbers that were generated. For instance the client fuzzer will always generate
143the same client hello with the same random number in it, and so the server, as
144emulated by the file, can be generated for that client hello.
145
146Coverage changes
147----------------
148
149Since the corpus depends on the default behaviour of the client and the server,
150changes in what they send by default will have an impact on the coverage. The
151corpus will need to be updated in that case.
152
153Updating the corpus
154-------------------
155
156The client and server corpus is generated with multiple config options:
157
158- The options as documented above
159- Without enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 and without --debug
160- With no-asm
161- Using 32 bit
162- A default config, plus options needed to generate the fuzzer.
163
164The libfuzzer merge option is used to add the additional coverage
165from each config to the minimal set.
166
167Minimizing the corpus
168---------------------
169
170When you have gathered corpus data from more than one fuzzer run
171or for any other reason want to minimize the data
172in some corpus subdirectory `fuzz/corpora/DIR` this can be done as follows:
173
174 mkdir fuzz/corpora/NEWDIR
175 fuzz/$FUZZER -merge=1 fuzz/corpora/NEWDIR fuzz/corpora/DIR
