OSS-Fuzz Integration Inquiry #244

Hello!

I have integrated a few open-sourced projects into OSS-Fuzz, a program sponsored by Google to provide continuous fuzz-testing of impactful open-sourced projects, and am wondering if libconfig's maintainers would approve me undertaking the work to develop a harness to fuzz-test this library and integrate it into OSS-Fuzz.

If you would like more details on what OSS-Fuzz is and what this work would entail, more details can be found here.

Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to working with you all!

Sure, feel free to add fuzz tests.

I am requesting permission to integrate
[libconfig](https://github.com/hyperrealm/libconfig) into OSS-Fuzz. I
believe that this project is a good candidate for OSS-Fuzz integration
as it serves as a preeminent library for parsing and reading
configuration files. The
[Linux](https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/tools/thermal/thermometer/thermometer.c)
kernel, [Janus WebRTC
Server](https://github.com/meetecho/janus-gateway), and the
[SSLH](https://github.com/yrutschle/sslh) project are just a few
examples of high-impact and security relevant projects that utilize this
library. In addition to the possibility of uncovering edge-cases and
bugs in the parsing of configuration files, there is the possibility of
a malicious actor crafting a corrupted config file for an elevated
service that could be used to perform privilege escalation.

Please see upstream approval for integration
