Openapi3 fuzzer

Project description

Simple fuzzer for OpenAPI 3 specification based APIs

What does this fuzzer do?

  1. Sends various attack patterns to all the paths defined in an OpenAPI 3 definition file, using the OAS3 definition to create populate requests.
  2. Verifies if the responses matches those defined in the OAS3 definition file, complains and exit(2) if it doesn't.
  3. Complains loudly and exit(1) if a path returns an internal server error (status code 500 and higher)

Why does this OpenAPI fuzzer exist?

To make it easy to integrate an OpenAPI 3 fuzzer in an existing API.

How do I use this?

  1. Install the fuzzer using its pip package
  2. Add at least the following packages to requirements-test.txt:
coverage==5.0.3
openapi3-fuzzer
adal==1.2.2
Flask-Testing==0.7.1
  1. Generate OpenAPI (https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator)
  2. Create a test_fuzzing file in the test location using the template below:
import adal

import config
from openapi3_fuzzer import FuzzIt
from openapi_server.test import BaseTestCase


def get_token():
    """
    Create a token for testing
    :return:
    """
    oauth_expected_authenticator = authenticatoruri
    client_id = appid
    client_secret = secret
    resource = resource/audience

    # get an Azure access token using the adal library
    context = adal.AuthenticationContext(oauth_expected_authenticator)
    token_response = context.acquire_token_with_client_credentials(
        resource, client_id, client_secret)

    access_token = token_response.get('accessToken')
    return access_token


class TestvAPI(BaseTestCase):

    def test_fuzzing(self):
        FuzzIt("openapi.yaml", get_token(), self)
  1. Run using our unittest container or via the Python Unittest Framework

What OAS3 items are supported?

Example output

Internal server error:

GET fuzzing /managers/expenses/{expenses_id}/attachments

* INTERNAL SERVER ERROR
  Endpoint returned 500 but expected one of [200]
  GET https://dev.myapi.example/managers/expenses/99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999/attachments

Response doesn't conform to the OAS3 spec:

--------------------------------------------

- Unexpected status code
  Endpoint returned 404 but expected one of [200, 'default']
  GET https://dev.myapi.example/employees/expenses/)$#***^
POST fuzzing /employees/expenses/{expenses_id}

- Unexpected status code
  Endpoint returned 400 but expected one of [201, 'default']

}
