Description

While fuzzing utf8proc with AFL++, we discovered that pass invalid option flags to utf8proc_normalize_utf32, the API may trigger a segmentation fault.

// Valid option test - works correctly
utf8proc_option_t valid_options = 
    UTF8PROC_STRIPCC | 
    UTF8PROC_NLF2LS | 
    UTF8PROC_NLF2PS;
utf8proc_normalize_utf32(copy, num_codepoints, valid_options);

// Invalid option test - triggers crash
utf8proc_option_t invalid_options = 0xFFFF;
utf8proc_normalize_utf32(copy, num_codepoints, invalid_options);

Environment

  • OS: Ubuntu 22.04
  • Compiler: Clang 16.0.6
  • AFL++ Version: afl-fuzz++4.22a

Reproduction

    -I/path/to/utf8proc/include \
    -L/path/to/utf8proc/lib \
    -lutf8proc \

The utf8proc_reencode function may have similar crash behavior with invalid options
