# American Fuzzy Lop plus plus (AFL++)
<img align="right" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/andreafioraldi/AFLplusplus-website/master/static/logo_256x256.png" alt="AFL++ logo">
Release version: [3.14c](https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus/releases)
GitHub version: 3.15a
Repository: [https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus](https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus)
AFL++ is maintained by:
* Marc "van Hauser" Heuse <mh@mh-sec.de>,
* Heiko "hexcoder-" Eißfeldt <heiko.eissfeldt@hexco.de>,
* Andrea Fioraldi <andreafioraldi@gmail.com> and
* Dominik Maier <mail@dmnk.co>.
Originally developed by Michał "lcamtuf" Zalewski.
AFL++ is a superior fork to Google's AFL - more speed, more and better mutations, more and better instrumentation, custom module support, etc.
For releases, please see the [Releases](https://github.com/AFLplusplus/AFLplusplus/releases) tab. Also take a look at the list of [major behaviour changes in AFL++](docs/behaviour_changes.md).
If you want to use AFL++ for your academic work, check the [papers page](https://aflplus.plus/papers/) on the website.
To cite our work, look at [Cite.md](docs/cite.md).
For comparisons, use the fuzzbench `aflplusplus` setup, or use `afl-clang-fast` with `AFL_LLVM_CMPLOG=1`.
You are free to copy, modify, and distribute AFL++ with attribution under the terms of the Apache-2.0 License. See the [LICENSE](LICENSE) for details.
## Help wanted
We have several [to dos](TODO.md) and [ideas](docs/ideas.md) we would like to see in AFL++ to make it even better.
However, we already work on so many things that we do not have the time for all the big ideas.
This can be your way to support and contribute to AFL++ - extend it to do something cool.
For everyone who wants to contribute (and send pull requests), please read our [contributing guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md) before your submit.
Thank you to [everyone who contributed](#special-thanks).
## Building and installing AFL++
To install AFL++ with everything compiled, use Docker:
* You can either use the [Dockerfile](Dockerfile) (which has gcc-10 and clang-11 - hence afl-clang-lto is available!)
* Or just pull directly from the Docker Hub:
```shell
docker pull aflplusplus/aflplusplus
docker run -ti -v /location/of/your/target:/src aflplusplus/aflplusplus
```
This image is automatically generated when a push to the stable repo happens (see [docs/branches.md](docs/branches.md)).
You will find your target source code in `/src` in the container.
To build AFL++ yourself, continue at [docs/building_installing.md](docs/building_installing.md).
## Quickstart: Fuzzing with AFL++
*NOTE: Before you start, please read about the [common sense risks of fuzzing](docs/common_sense_risks.md).*
This is a quickstart for fuzzing targets with the source code available.
To read about the process in detail, see [docs/fuzzing.md](docs/fuzzing.md).
To learn about fuzzing other target, see:
* Binary-only targets: [docs/fuzzing_binary-only_targets.md](docs/fuzzing_binary-only_targets.md)
* Network services: [docs/best_practices.md#fuzzing-a-network-service](docs/best_practices.md#fuzzing-a-network-service)
* GUI programs: [docs/best_practices.md#fuzzing-a-gui-program](docs/best_practices.md#fuzzing-a-gui-program)
Step-by-step quickstart:
*THIS SECTION IS WIP*
1. Instrumenting the target:
1. Selecting a compiler.
2. Instrumenting the target.
2. Preparing the fuzzing campaign.
3. Fuzzing the target:
1. Running afl-fuzz.
2. Stopping or restarting afl-fuzz or adding new seeds.
4. Monitoring.
1. Checking the status.
2. Checking the coverage.
5. Triaging crashes.
