afl.rs is a Cargo subcommand that lets you fuzz test Rust code with AFLplusplus, the coverage-guided fuzzer. It instruments Rust builds so AFLplusplus can find crashes and security issues in Rust programs.
Use cases
- fuzz test my rust crate for crashes
- find security vulnerabilities in rust code with afl
- run coverage-guided fuzzing on a rust binary
- discover panics in rust parsers with random input
- set up continuous fuzzing for a rust project
When to choose
- you want to fuzz Rust code with AFLplusplus's mature coverage-guided engine
- you prefer a simple cargo-integrated fuzzing workflow
- you want CMPLOG and other AFL++ features on Rust targets
When to avoid
- you need structure-aware fuzzing with libFuzzer-style custom mutators (consider cargo-fuzz instead)
- you are fuzzing non-Rust code
- you need Windows support, which is not a primary target
