Features

• Fuzzing Resources - Provides a comprehensive collection of malformed inputs for testing application robustness and identifying crashes in text processing.
• Input Validation & Sanitization - Acts as a standardized benchmark of malicious character sequences for stress-testing data parsing and sanitization.
• Input Validation Libraries - Provides a library of problematic strings to verify that software correctly handles edge-case sequences and prevents processing errors.
• Security Testing - Serves as a language-neutral reference for auditing software robustness against injection flaws and data handling errors.
• Awesome List - A community-curated directory that catalogs and links out to other open-source projects, rather than a standalone tool you run yourself.
• Security Testing and Auditing - Supports security auditing by stress-testing sanitization routines against known problematic character sequences.
• Internationalization and Encoding - Corpus of strings for testing input handling and edge cases.
• Testing References - A collection of strings used to test input validation and edge cases.
• Penetration Testing Toolkits - A list of strings that cause issues in software.
• Security & Privacy - Strings that cause input data issues.
• Database Injection Prevention - Helps verify that database interfaces correctly sanitize input to prevent command injection and data corruption.
• Input Validation Utilities - Enables verification of software robustness by submitting edge-case strings to identify potential validation errors.
• Automated Quality Assurance Suites - Integrates standardized edge-case datasets into testing pipelines to ensure reliable handling of malicious user input.
• Malicious String Corpora - Provides a centralized collection of malformed strings stored as raw text for universal compatibility in testing environments.
