* Throw out fewer fuzz inputs with differential fuzzer Prior to this commit the differential fuzzer would generate a module and then select an engine to execute the module against Wasmtime. This meant, however, that the candidate list of engines were filtered against the configuration used to generate the module to ensure that the selected engine could run the generated module. This commit inverts this logic and instead selects an engine first, allowing the engine to then tweak the module configuration to ensure that the generated module is compatible with the engine selected. This means that fewer fuzz inputs are discarded because every fuzz input will result in an engine being executed. Internally the engine constructors have all been updated to update the configuration to work instead of filtering the configuration. Some other fixes were applied for the spec interpreter as well to work around #4852 * Fix tests
cargo fuzz Targets for Wasmtime
This crate defines various libFuzzer
fuzzing targets for Wasmtime, which can be run via cargo fuzz.
These fuzz targets just glue together pre-defined test case generators with
oracles and pass libFuzzer-provided inputs to them. The test case generators and
oracles themselves are independent from the fuzzing engine that is driving the
fuzzing process and are defined in wasmtime/crates/fuzzing.
Example
To start fuzzing run the following command, where $MY_FUZZ_TARGET is one of
the available fuzz targets:
cargo fuzz run $MY_FUZZ_TARGET
Available Fuzz Targets
At the time of writing, we have the following fuzz targets:
api_calls: stress the Wasmtime API by executing sequences of API calls; only the subset of the API is currently supported.compile: Attempt to compile libFuzzer's raw input bytes with Wasmtime.compile-maybe-invalid: Attempt to compile a wasm-smith-generated Wasm module with code sequences that may be invalid.cranelift-fuzzgen: Generate a Cranelift function and check that it returns the same results when compiled to the host and when using the Cranelift interpreter; only a subset of Cranelift IR is currently supported.cranelift-icache: Generate a Cranelift function A, applies a small mutation to its source, yielding a function A', and checks that A compiled + incremental compilation generates the same machine code as if A' was compiled from scratch.differential: Generate a Wasm module, evaluate each exported function with random inputs, and check that Wasmtime returns the same results as a choice of another engine: the Wasm spec interpreter (see thewasm-spec-interpretercrate), thewasmiinterpreter, V8 (through thev8crate), or Wasmtime itself run with a different configuration.instantiate: Generate a Wasm module and Wasmtime configuration and attempt to compile and instantiate with them.instantiate-many: Generate many Wasm modules and attempt to compile and instantiate them concurrently.spectests: Pick a random spec test and run it with a generated configuration.table_ops: Generate a sequence ofexternreftable operations and run them in a GC environment.
The canonical list of fuzz targets is the .rs files in the fuzz_targets
directory:
ls wasmtime/fuzz/fuzz_targets/
Corpora
While you can start from scratch, libFuzzer will work better if it is given a corpus of seed inputs to kick start the fuzzing process. We maintain a corpus for each of these fuzz targets in a dedicated repo on github.
You can use our corpora by cloning it and placing it at wasmtime/fuzz/corpus:
git clone \
https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime-libfuzzer-corpus.git \
wasmtime/fuzz/corpus
Reproducing a Fuzz Bug
When investigating a fuzz bug (especially one found by OSS-Fuzz), use the following steps to reproduce it locally:
- Download the test case (either the "Minimized Testcase" or "Unminimized Testcase" from OSS-Fuzz will do).
- Run the test case in the correct fuzz target:
If all goes well, the bug should reproduce and libFuzzer will dump the failure stack trace to stdout
cargo +nightly fuzz run <target> <test case> - For more debugging information, run the command above with
RUST_LOG=debugto print the configuration and WebAssembly input used by the test case (see uses oflog_wasmin thewasmtime-fuzzingcrate).
