Nytro Posted September 22, 2019 Report Posted September 22, 2019 JQF + Zest: Semantic Fuzzing for Java JQF is a feedback-directed fuzz testing platform for Java, which uses the abstraction of property-based testing. JQF is built on top of junit-quickcheck: a tool for generating random arguments for parametric Junit test methods. JQF enables better input generation using coverage-guided fuzzing algorithms such as Zest. Zest is an algorithm that biases coverage-guided fuzzing towards producing semantically valid inputs; that is, inputs that satisfy structural and semantic properties while maximizing code coverage. Zest's goal is to find deep semantic bugs that cannot be found by conventional fuzzing tools, which mostly stress error-handling logic only. By default, JQF runs Zest via the simple command: mvn jqf:fuzz. JQF is a modular framework, supporting the following pluggable fuzzing front-ends called guidances: Binary fuzzing with AFL (tutorial) Semantic fuzzing with Zest [ISSTA'19 paper] (tutorial 1) (tutorial 2) Complexity fuzzing with PerfFuzz [ISSTA'18 paper] JQF has been successful in discovering a number of bugs in widely used open-source software such as OpenJDK, Apache Maven and the Google Closure Compiler.

ACM, New York, NY, USA, 4 pages. https://doi.org/10.1145/3293882.3339002 Overview What is structured fuzzing? Binary fuzzing tools like AFL and libFuzzer treat the input as a sequence of bytes. If the test program expects highly structured inputs, such as XML documents or JavaScript programs, then mutating byte-arrays often results in syntactically invalid inputs; the core of the test program remains untested. Structured fuzzing tools leverage domain-specific knowledge of the input format to produce inputs that are syntactically valid by construction. Here is a nice article on structure-aware fuzzing of C++ programs using libFuzzer. What is generator-based fuzzing (QuickCheck)? Structured fuzzing tools need a way to understand the input structure. Some other tools use declarative specifications of the input format such as context-free grammars or protocol buffers. JQF uses QuickCheck's imperative approach for specifying the space of inputs: arbitrary generator programs whose job is to generate a single random input. A Generator<T> provides a method for producing random instances of type T. For example, a generator for type Calendar returns randomly-generated Calendar objects. One can easily write generators for more complex types, such as XML documents, JavaScript programs, JVM class files, SQL queries, HTTP requests, and many more -- this is generator-based fuzzing. However, simply sampling random inputs of type T is not usually very effective, since the generator does not know if the inputs that it produces are any good. What is semantic fuzzing (Zest)? JQF supports the Zest algorithm, which uses code-coverage and input-validity feedback to bias a QuickCheck-style generator towards generating structured inputs that can reveal deep semantic bugs. JQF extracts code coverage using bytecode instrumentation, and input validity using JUnit's Assume API. An input is valid if no assumptions are violated. Documentation Tutorials Zest 101: A basic tutorial for fuzzing a standalone toy program using command-line scripts. Walks through the process of writing a test driver and structured input generator for Calendar objects. Fuzzing a compiler with Zest: A tutorial for fuzzing a non-trivial program -- the Google Closure Compiler -- using a generator for JavaScript programs. This tutorial makes use of the JQF Maven plugin. Fuzzing with AFL: A tutorial for fuzzing a Java program that parses binary data, such as PNG image files, using the AFL binary fuzzing engine. Fuzzing with ZestCLI: A tutorial of fuzzing a Java program with ZestCLI Continuous Fuzzing Just like unit-tests fuzzing is advised to be run continuously with your CI as your code grows and developed. Currently there is 1 service that offer continuous fuzzing as a service based on JQF/Zest: fuzzit.dev (tutorial) Additional Details The JQF wiki contains lots more documentation including: Using a custom fuzz guidance Performance Benchmarks JQF also publishes its API docs. Contact the developers We want your feedback! (haha, get it? get it?) If you've found a bug in JQF or are having trouble getting JQF to work, please open an issue on the issue tracker. You can also use this platform to post feature requests. If it's some sort of fuzzing emergency you can always send an email to the main developer: Rohan Padhye. Trophies If you find bugs with JQF and you comfortable with sharing, We would be happy to add them to this list.
