Fuzzing is an important technique in software and security testing that involves continuously
generating a large number of test cases against target programs to discover unexpected …

Fuzzing has proven to be a highly effective approach to uncover software bugs over the past
decade. After AFL popularized the groundbreaking concept of lightweight coverage …

Fuzzers effectively explore programs to discover bugs. Greybox fuzzers mutate seed inputs
and observe their execution. Whenever a seed reaches new behavior (eg, new code or …

As blockchain platforms grow exponentially, millions of lines of smart contract code are
being deployed to manage extensive digital assets. However, vulnerabilities in this mission …

Directed greybox fuzzing is a popular technique for targeted software testing that seeks to
find inputs that reach a set of target sites in a program. Most existing directed greybox …

While the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) plays a vital role in ensuring correct executions of
Java applications, testing JVMs via generating and running class files on them can be rather …

Today's digital communication relies on complex protocols and specifications for
exchanging structured messages and data. Communication naturally involves two …

For coverage-guided fuzzers, many of their adopted seeds are usually underused by
exploring limited program states since essentially all their executions have to abide by …

Knowledge of a program's input format is essential for effective input generation in fuzzing.
Automated input format reverse engineering represents an attractive but challenging …

A common paradigm for improving fuzzing performance is to focus on selected regions of a
program rather than its entirety. While previous work has largely explored how these …
