Abstract
Integrated fuzzing techniques are described. A fuzzing system may employ a container configured as a separate component that can host different target pages to implement fuzzing for an application. A hosted target file is loaded as a subcomponent of the container and parsed to recognize functionality of the application invoked by the file. In at least some embodiments, this involves building a document object model (DOM) for a browser page and determining DOM interfaces of a browser to call based on the page DOM. The container then operates to systematically invoke the recognized functionality to cause and detect failures. Additionally, the container may operate to perform iterative fuzzing with multiple test files in an automation mode. Log files may be created to describe the testing and enable both self-contained replaying of failures and coverage analysis for multiple test runs.
