Go fuzzing was missing half the toolkit. We forked the toolchain to fix it.
Go’s native fuzzing is useful, but it stands far behind state-of-the-art tooling that the Rust, C, and C++ ecosystems offer with LibAFL and AFL++. Path constraints are hard to solve. Structured inputs usually need handmade parsing. It doesn’t even detect several common bug classes, such as integer overflows, goroutine leaks, data races, and execution timeouts. So to make it better, we built gosentry, a fuzzing-oriented fork of the Go toolchain that keeps the standard testing.F workflow while usi...
