FuzzParseDN test was failed on GitHub Actions

[t2y]

I encountered some failures with the result of a job on GitHub Actions.

• IsErrorAnyOf should match the given result code even if the error is wrapped #471

I will investigate why this error happens on GitHub Actions.

Rarely, but I could reproduce it in my local environment. It's a concurrent race condition issue, I guess.

[t2y]

The job is here.

    - name: Build and Validate
      run: |
        cd ${{ matrix.branch }}
        go vet .
        go test .
        go test -cover -race -cpu 1,2,4 .
        go build .

[t2y]

I confirmed this CLI would fail.

$ go test -cover -race -cpu 1,2,4 .

I understood this configuration is module global variable and multiple goroutines access to the variable. In FuzzParseDN(), the variable changed, so it occurred DATA RACE.

ber.MaxPacketLengthBytes = 65536

[t2y]

Fuzz test has two modes. So FuzzParseDN() is always called with seed corpus.

There are two modes of running your fuzz test: as a unit test (default go test), or with fuzzing (go test -fuzz=FuzzTestName).

Fuzz tests are run much like a unit test by default. Each seed corpus entry will be tested against the fuzz target, reporting any failures before exiting.

https://go.dev/security/fuzz/

[t2y]

There are different requirements for each test.

• unit test mode: should not change ber.MaxPacketLengthBytes
• fuzzing mode: should limit ber.MaxPacketLengthBytes

[t2y]

Setting a value before all tests by TestMain resolves it. ber.MaxPacketLengthBytes limit is not affected for other tests.

func TestMain(m *testing.M) {
	// For fuzz tests
	// See https://github.com/go-asn1-ber/asn1-ber/blob/04301b4b1c5ff66221f8f8a394f814a9917d678a/fuzz_test.go#L33-L37
	// for why this limitation is necessary
	ber.MaxPacketLengthBytes = 65536

	code := m.Run()
	os.Exit(code)
}

I don't know why v3 directory doesn't have fuzz_test.go.

I don't know why v3 directory doesn't have fuzz_test.go.

Yes, we should make sure the v3 directory matches the root (until we develop a proper branch strategy)
