Honggfuzz vs. Peach Fuzzer vs. go-fuzz vs. python-sql Comparison Chart

Honggfuzz is a security-oriented software fuzzer. Supports evolutionary, feedback-driven fuzzing based on code coverage (SW and HW-based). It’s multi-process and multi-threaded, there’s no need to run multiple copies of your fuzzer, as Honggfuzz can unlock the potential of all your available CPU cores with a single running instance. The file corpus is automatically shared and improved between all fuzzed processes. It’s blazingly fast when the persistent fuzzing mode is used. A simple/empty LLVMFuzzerTestOneInput function can be tested with up to 1mo iteration per second on a relatively modern CPU. Has a solid track record of uncovered security bugs, the only (to date) vulnerability in OpenSSL with the critical score mark was discovered by Honggfuzz. As opposed to other fuzzers, it will discover and report hijacked/ignored signals from crashes (intercepted and potentially hidden by a fuzzed program).

Go-fuzz is a coverage-guided fuzzing solution for testing Go packages. Fuzzing is mainly applicable to packages that parse complex inputs (both text and binary) and is especially useful for hardening systems that parse inputs from potentially malicious users (anything accepted over a network). go-fuzz has recently added preliminary support for fuzzing Go Modules. If you encounter a problem with modules, please file an issue with details. Data is a random input generated by go-fuzz, note that in most cases it is invalid. The function must return 1 if the fuzzer should increase the priority of the given input during subsequent fuzzing if the input must not be added to the corpus even if it gives new coverage, and 0 otherwise; other values are reserved for future use. The fuzz function must be in a package that go-fuzz can import. This means the code you want to test can't be in package main. Fuzzing internal packages is supported, however.
