We numerically study the synchronization of two semiconductor lasers, which have optical self-feedback loops and are subject to injection of common driving light with fast and randomly fluctuating phase and amplitude. We show that the synchronization is possible for broadband random light injection, and clarify the properties of this type of synchronization in detail.
