boofuzz-ftp

Simple FTP fuzzer to demonstrate boofuzz usage.

Getting started

Install boofuzz

pip install boofuzz

Note: Check ftp.py for a specific boofuzz version number.

Run an ftp server

Any server. Obscure open source projects are a nice place to look for bugs.

Since we're trying to break the program anyway, you may want to run it in a Virtual Machine.

Run the fuzzer

python ftp.py  # > fuzz-logs.txt

It's fun to watch the fuzzer progress, but there is a lot of output.

Watch it in action

Open your browser to http://127.0.0.1:26000/ to see progress.

Watch the ftp server under test to see if anything goes wrong.

Improvements

This fuzzer could use:

1. A process monitor to start and stop the unit under test, and detect crashes.
2. Some recognition of received data to diagnose errors.
3. A fuller definition of FTP.
