# Coverage Guided Fuzz Testing **(ULTIMATE)**
GitLab allows you to add coverage-guided fuzz testing to your pipelines. This helps you discover
bugs and potential security issues that other QA processes may miss. Coverage-guided fuzzing sends
random inputs to an instrumented version of your application in an effort to cause unexpected
behavior, such as a crash. Such behavior indicates a bug that you should address.
We recommend that you use fuzz testing in addition to the other security scanners in [GitLab Secure](../index.md)
and your own test processes. If you're using [GitLab CI/CD](../../../ci/README.md),
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
you can run your coverage-guided fuzz tests as part your CI/CD workflow. You can take advantage of
coverage-guided fuzzing by including the CI job in your existing `.gitlab-ci.yml` file.

## Supported fuzzing engines and languages
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
GitLab supports these languages through the fuzzing engine listed for each. We currently provide a
Docker image for apps written in Go, but you can test the other languages below by providing a
Docker image with the fuzz engine to run your app.

## Configuration
To enable fuzzing, you must
[include](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#includetemplate)
the [`Coverage-Fuzzing.gitlab-ci.yml` template](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/blob/master/lib/gitlab/ci/templates/Security/Coverage-Fuzzing.gitlab-ci.yml)
provided as part of your GitLab installation.
To do so, add the following to your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file:
```yaml
include:
- template: Coverage-Fuzzing.gitlab-ci.yml
```
The included template makes available the [hidden job](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#hide-jobs)
`.fuzz_base`, which you must [extend](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#extends) for each of your fuzz
targets. Each fuzz target **must** have a separate job. For example, the
[go-fuzzing-example project](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/demos/go-fuzzing-example)
contains one job that extends `.fuzz_base` for its single fuzz target.
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
Note that the hidden job `.fuzz_base` uses several YAML keys that you must not override in your own
job. If you include these keys in your own job, you must copy their original content. These keys
are:
- `before_script`
- `artifacts`
- `rules`
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
The `my_fuzz_target` job (the separate job for your fuzz target) does the following:
- Extends `.fuzz_base`.
- Compiles the fuzz target with [go-fuzz](https://github.com/dvyukov/go-fuzz).
- Runs the target with the `gitlab-cov-fuzz` command, which is available to each job that extends
`.fuzz_base`.
- Runs on a fuzz stage that usually comes after a test stage.
The `gitlab-cov-fuzz` is a command-line tool that runs the instrumented application. It parses and
analyzes the exception information that the fuzzer outputs. It also downloads the [corpus](#glossary)
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
and crash events from previous pipelines automatically. This helps your fuzz targets build on the
progress of previous fuzzing jobs. The parsed crash events and data are written to
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
`gl-coverage-fuzzing-report.json`.
### Artifacts
Each fuzzing step outputs these artifacts:
- `gl-coverage-fuzzing-report.json`: This file's format may change in future releases.
- `artifacts.zip`: This file contains two directories:
- `corpus`: Holds all test cases generated by the current and all previous jobs.
- `crashes`: Holds all crash events the current job encountered as well as those not fixed in
previous jobs.
### Types of Fuzzing Jobs
There are two types of jobs:
- Fuzzing: Standard fuzzing session. You can configure a long session through a user defined
timeout.
- Regression: Run the fuzz targets through the accumulated test cases generated by previous fuzzing
sessions plus fixed crashes from previous sessions. This is usually very quick.
Here's our current suggestion for configuring your fuzz target's timeout:
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
- Set `COVFUZZ_BRANCH` to the branch where you want to run long-running (async) fuzzing
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
jobs. This is `master` by default.
- Use regression or short-running fuzzing jobs for other branches or merge requests.
This suggestion helps find new bugs on the development branch and catch old bugs in merge requests
(like unit tests).
You can configure this by passing `--regression=false/true` to `gitlab-cov-fuzz` as the [Go example](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/demos/go-fuzzing-example/-/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml)
shows. Also note that `gitlab-cov-fuzz` is a wrapper, so you can pass those arguments to configure
any option available in the underlying fuzzing engine.
### Available variables
| Environment variable | Description |
|---------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
| `COVFUZZ_BRANCH` | The branch for long-running fuzzing jobs. The default is `master`. |
| `COVFUZZ_SEED_CORPUS` | Path to a seed corpus directory. The default is empty. |
| `COVFUZZ_URL_PREFIX` | Path to the `gitlab-cov-fuzz` repository cloned for use with an offline environment. You should only change this when using an offline environment. The default value is `https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/gitlab-cov-fuzz/-/raw`. |
The files in the seed corpus (`COVFUZZ_SEED_CORPUS`), if provided, aren't updated unless you commit new
files to your Git repository. There's usually no need to frequently update the seed corpus. As part
of the GitLab artifacts system, GitLab saves in a corpus directory the new test cases that every run
generates. In any subsequent runs, GitLab also reuses the generated corpus together with the seed
corpus.
### Reports JSON format
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/220062) in [GitLab Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 13.3 as an [Alpha feature](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/gitlab-the-product/#alpha).
The `gitlab-cov-fuzz` tool emits a JSON report file. For more information, see the
[schema for this report](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/security-report-schemas/-/blob/master/dist/coverage-fuzzing-report-format.json).
You can download the JSON report file from the CI pipelines page. For more information, see
[Downloading artifacts](../../../ci/pipelines/job_artifacts.md#downloading-artifacts).

### Additional Configuration
The `gitlab-cov-fuzz` command passes all arguments it receives to the underlying fuzzing engine. You
can therefore use all the options available in that fuzzing engine. For more information on these
options, see the underlying fuzzing engine's documentation.
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
### Offline Environment
To use coverage fuzzing in an offline environment, follow these steps:
1. Clone [`gitlab-cov-fuzz`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/analyzers/gitlab-cov-fuzz)
to a private repository that your offline GitLab instance can access.
1. For each fuzzing step, set `COVFUZZ_URL_PREFIX` to `${NEW_URL_GITLAB_COV_FUZ}/-/raw`, where
`NEW_URL_GITLAB_COV_FUZ` is the URL of the private `gitlab-cov-fuzz` clone that you set up in the
first step.
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
### Continuous fuzzing (long-running async fuzzing jobs)
It's also possible to run the fuzzing jobs longer and without blocking your main pipeline. This
configuration uses the GitLab [parent-child pipelines](../../../ci/parent_child_pipelines.md).
The full example is available in the [repository](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/demos/coverage-fuzzing/go-fuzzing-example/-/tree/continuous_fuzzing#running-go-fuzz-from-ci).
This example uses Go, but is applicable for any other supported languages.
The suggested workflow in this scenario is to have long-running, async fuzzing jobs on a
main/development branch, and short, blocking sync fuzzing jobs on all other branches and MRs. This
is a good way to balance the needs of letting a developer's per-commit pipeline complete quickly,
and also giving the fuzzer a large amount of time to fully explore and test the app.
Long-running fuzzing jobs are usually necessary for the coverage guided fuzzer to find deeper bugs
in your latest code base. THe following is an example of what `.gitlab-ci.yml` looks like in this
workflow (for the full example, see the [repository](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/demos/coverage-fuzzing/go-fuzzing-example/-/tree/continuous_fuzzing)):
```yaml
sync_fuzzing:
variables:
COVFUZZ_ADDITIONAL_ARGS: '-max_total_time=300'
trigger:
include: .covfuzz-ci.yml
strategy: depend
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH != 'continuous_fuzzing' && $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE != 'merge_request_event'
async_fuzzing:
variables:
COVFUZZ_ADDITIONAL_ARGS: '-max_total_time=3600'
trigger:
include: .covfuzz-ci.yml
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == 'continuous_fuzzing' && $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE != 'merge_request_event'
```
This essentially creates two steps:
1. `sync_fuzzing`: Runs all your fuzz targets for a short period of time in a blocking
configuration. This finds simple bugs and allows you to be confident that your MRs aren't
introducing new bugs or causing old bugs to reappear.
1. `async_fuzzing`: Runs on your branch and finds deep bugs in your code without blocking your
development cycle and MRs.
The `covfuzz-ci.yml` is the same as that in the [original synchronous example](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security-products/demos/coverage-fuzzing/go-fuzzing-example#running-go-fuzz-from-ci).
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
### Glossary
- Seed corpus: The set of test cases given as initial input to the fuzz target. This usually speeds
up the fuzz target substantially. This can be either manually created test cases or auto-generated
with the fuzz target itself from previous runs.
- Corpus: The set of meaningful test cases that are generated while the fuzzer is running. Each
meaningful test case produces new coverage in the tested program. It's advised to re-use the
corpus and pass it to subsequent runs.
