Fuzzing Bitcoin Core using libFuzzer
Quickstart guide
To quickly get started fuzzing Bitcoin Core using libFuzzer:
$ git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
$ cd bitcoin/
$ ./autogen.sh
$ CC=clang CXX=clang++ ./configure --enable-fuzz --with-sanitizers=address,fuzzer,undefined
# macOS users: If you have problem with this step then make sure to read "macOS hints for
# libFuzzer" on https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/fuzzing.md#macos-hints-for-libfuzzer
$ make
$ FUZZ=process_message src/test/fuzz/fuzz
# abort fuzzing using ctrl-c
Fuzzing harnesses, fuzzing output and fuzzing corpora
process_message is a fuzzing harness for the ProcessMessage(...) function (net_processing). The available fuzzing harnesses are found in src/test/fuzz/.
The fuzzer will output NEW every time it has created a test input that covers new areas of the code under test. For more information on how to interpret the fuzzer output, see the libFuzzer documentation.
If you specify a corpus directory then any new coverage increasing inputs will be saved there:

In this case the fuzzer managed to create a block message which when passed to ProcessMessage(...) increased coverage.
The project's collection of seed corpora is found in the bitcoin-core/qa-assets repo.
To fuzz process_message using the bitcoin-core/qa-assets seed corpus:
$ git clone https://github.com/bitcoin-core/qa-assets

If you find coverage increasing inputs when fuzzing you are highly encouraged to submit them for inclusion in the bitcoin-core/qa-assets repo.
Every single pull request submitted against the Bitcoin Core repo is automatically tested against all inputs in the bitcoin-core/qa-assets repo. Contributing new coverage increasing inputs is an easy way to help make Bitcoin Core more robust.
macOS hints for libFuzzer
The default Clang/LLVM version supplied by Apple on macOS does not include
fuzzing libraries, so macOS users will need to install a full version, for
example using brew install llvm.
Should you run into problems with the address sanitizer, it is possible you
may need to run ./configure with --disable-asm to avoid errors
with certain assembly code from Bitcoin Core's code. See developer notes on sanitizers
for more information.
You may also need to take care of giving the correct path for clang and
clang++, like CC=/path/to/clang CXX=/path/to/clang++ if the non-systems
clang does not come first in your path.
Full configure that was tested on macOS Catalina with brew installed llvm:
./configure --enable-fuzz --with-sanitizers=fuzzer,address,undefined CC=/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/clang CXX=/usr/local/opt/llvm/bin/clang++ --disable-asm

Fuzzing Bitcoin Core using afl++
Quickstart guide
To quickly get started fuzzing Bitcoin Core using afl++:
$ git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
$ cd bitcoin/
$ git clone https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus
$ make -C AFLplusplus/ source-only
$ ./autogen.sh
# If afl-clang-lto is not available, see
# https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus#a-selecting-the-best-afl-compiler-for-instrumenting-the-target
$ CC=$(pwd)/AFLplusplus/afl-clang-lto CXX=$(pwd)/AFLplusplus/afl-clang-lto++ ./configure --enable-fuzz
$ make
# For macOS you may need to ignore x86 compilation checks when running "make". If so,
# try compiling using: AFL_NO_X86=1 make
$ mkdir -p inputs/ outputs/
$ echo A > inputs/thin-air-input
$ FUZZ=bech32 AFLplusplus/afl-fuzz -i inputs/ -o outputs/ -- src/test/fuzz/fuzz
# You may have to change a few kernel parameters to test optimally - afl-fuzz
# will print an error and suggestion if so.

Fuzzing Bitcoin Core using Honggfuzz

Fuzzing the Bitcoin Core P2P layer using Honggfuzz NetDriver
Honggfuzz NetDriver allows for very easy fuzzing of TCP servers such as Bitcoin
Core without having to write any custom fuzzing harness. The bitcoind server
process is largely fuzzed without modification.
This makes the fuzzing highly realistic: a bug reachable by the fuzzer is likely also remotely triggerable by an untrusted peer.
To quickly get started fuzzing the P2P layer using Honggfuzz NetDriver:
$ mkdir bitcoin-honggfuzz-p2p/
$ cd bitcoin-honggfuzz-p2p/
$ git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
$ cd bitcoin/
$ ./autogen.sh
$ git clone https://github.com/google/honggfuzz

OSS-Fuzz
Bitcoin Core participates in Google's OSS-Fuzz program, which includes a dashboard of publicly disclosed vulnerabilities. Generally, we try to disclose vulnerabilities as soon as possible after they are fixed to give users the knowledge they need to be protected. However, because Bitcoin is a live P2P network, and not just standalone local software, we might not fully disclose every issue within Google's standard 90-day disclosure window if a partial or delayed disclosure is important to protect users or the function of the network.
