# argvfuzz
|
|
|
|
afl supports fuzzing file inputs or stdin. When source is available,
|
|
`argv-fuzz-inl.h` can be used to change `main()` to build argv from stdin.
|
|
|
|
`argvfuzz` tries to provide the same functionality for binaries. When loaded
|
|
using `LD_PRELOAD`, it will hook the call to `__libc_start_main` and replace
|
|
argv using the same logic of `argv-fuzz-inl.h`.
|
|
|
|
A few conditions need to be fulfilled for this mechanism to work correctly:
|
|
|
|
1. As it relies on hooking the loader, it cannot work on static binaries.
|
|
2. If the target binary does not use the default libc's `_start` implementation
|
|
(crt1.o), the hook may not run.
|
|
3. The hook will replace argv with pointers to `.data` of `argvfuzz.so`. If the
|
|
target binary expects argv to be living on the stack, things may go wrong.
