Sloth is a fuzzing setup that makes use of libFuzzer and QEMU’s user-mode emulation (qemu/linux-user
) on x86_64/aarch64 host to emulate aarch64 Android libraries to fuzz the target Android native library.
Sloth makes use of libFuzzer and QEMU’s user-mode emulation (qemu/linux-user
) on x86_64/aarch64 host to emulate aarch64 Android libraries to fuzz the target Android native library. Internals of why and how about Sloth are available at : https://fuzzing.science/blog/Fuzzing-Android-Native-libraries-with-libFuzzer-Qemu
High level execution flow of QEMU user-mode emulation:
To build and launch the docker container:
export image="sloth:v1"
docker build -t $image .
docker run --rm -v `pwd`/resources/rootfs:/rootfs -v `pwd`/resources/examples:/examples -it $image bash
Check resources/examples
folder to build an example android native library.
You can copy the /system/ from a rooted Android device into resources/rootfs
directory.
In the examples folder, check the signature of libQemuFuzzerTestOneInput
function in jni/lib/fuzz.cpp
file. This function is equivalent to LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput
function that we define when creating any libFuzzer harness.
To compile the sample from examples:
cd examples/jni
ndk-build
This builds and generates libBooFuzz.so and an executable boofuzz.
Copy libBooFuzz.so
to rootfs/system/lib64/
and boofuzz
to /rootfs/
root@b7d9fb6a454e:/examples/jni# make
root@b7d9fb6a454e:/examples/jni# cp ../libs/arm64-v8a/libBooFuzz.so /rootfs/system/lib64/
root@b7d9fb6a454e:/examples/jni# cp ../libs/arm64-v8a/boofuzz /rootfs/
root@b7d9fb6a454e:/examples/jni#
Add your target library path that exports libQemuFuzzerTestOneInput
(libBooFuzz.so in our example) to SLOTH_TARGET_LIBRARY
env variable.
To start fuzzing:

Happy Fuzzing :)
- Fix signal handling in QEMU for libFuzzer to handle
- Use QEMU as a library
- Fuzzing support for Android JNI libraries
- Make sure this is thread safe since I moved some variables to global.
- Add CMP coverage
- Add ASAN
