Performing API Fuzzing with RESTler
When to Use
- Performing automated security testing of REST APIs using their OpenAPI/Swagger specifications
- Discovering bugs that only manifest through specific sequences of API calls (stateful testing)
- Finding 500 Internal Server Error responses that indicate unhandled exceptions or crash conditions
- Testing API input validation by fuzzing parameters with malformed, boundary, and injection payloads
- Running continuous security regression testing in CI/CD pipelines for API changes
Do not use against production environments without explicit authorization and monitoring. RESTler creates and deletes resources aggressively during fuzzing.
