  • Property-Based Testing In Go

    But others have found more ways to use this paradigm. If you want to learn more about property-based testing, then gopter, the GOlang Property TestER, is worth taking a look at. Amir Saeid, who’s good at this technique, recommends this book full of examples, and this blog.

    I think gopter is more useful, for property-based testing.
  • Add experimental fuzz test support for Go 1.17

    Does anyone have experience with Gopter, a Golang Property Based testing library? https://github.com/leanovate/gopter

  • Rust from a security perspective, where is it vulnerable?
    6 projects | /r/rust | 16 Jan 2023
    You could check cargo-fuzz trophy case, which is a list of issues that have been found via fuzzing.
  • capnproto-rust: out-of-bound memory access bug
    4 projects | /r/rust | 30 Nov 2022
    I've added it to the trophy case.
  • [LWN] A pair of Rust kernel modules
    1 project | /r/linux | 14 Sep 2022
    That said, what's present in what quantities under what circumstances in the Rust fuzzing trophy case does a pretty good job of illustrating how effective the Rust compiler is at ruling out entire classes of bugs.
  • Looking for simple rust programs to crash
    9 projects | /r/rust | 25 Jul 2022
    The same fuzzing techniques applied to Rust yielded a lot of bugs as well. But in Rust's case only 7 out of 340 fuzzer-discovered bugs, or 2%, were memory corruption issues. Naturally, all of the memory corruption bugs were in unsafe code.
  • Everything Is Broken: Shipping rust-minidump at Mozilla, Part 1
    1 project | /r/rust | 15 Jun 2022
    https://github.com/rust-fuzz/trophy-case has like 70 of my issues in it, including the nine minidump bugs
  • Fuzzcheck (a structure-aware Rust fuzzer)
    4 projects | /r/rust | 26 Feb 2022
    If you have found any bugs with this tool, perhaps add them to the Rust fuzz trophy case?
  • Rust is more portable than C for pngquant/libimagequant
    7 projects | /r/rust | 4 Jan 2022
    Source: https://github.com/rust-fuzz/trophy-case (over 40 of those are just from me).
  • Rust takes a major step forward as Linux's second official language
    17 projects | /r/programming | 7 Dec 2021
    But to bring some data, check out the fuzz trophy case. It shows that failures in Rust are most often assertions/panics (equivalent to C++ exception) with memory corruption being relatively rare (it's not never—Rust isn't promising magic—but it's a significant change).
  • Shouldn't have happened: A vulnerability postmortem
    11 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Dec 2021
    You need to read the list more carefully.

    • The list is not for Rust itself, but every program every written in Rust. By itself it doesn't mean much, unless you compare prevalence of issues among Rust programs to prevalence of issues among C programs. For some context, see how memory unsafety is rare compared to assertions and uncaught exceptions: https://github.com/rust-fuzz/trophy-case

    • Many of the memory-unsafety issues are on the C FFI boundary, which is unsafe due to C lacking expressiveness about memory ownership of its APIs (i.e. it shows how dangerous is to program where you don't have the Rust borrow checker checking your code).

    • Many bugs about missing Send/Sync or evil trait implementations are about type-system loopholes that prevented compiler from catching code that was already buggy. C doesn't have these guarantees in the first place, so lack of them is not a CVE for C, but just how C is designed.
