PrescientFuzz: A more effective exploration approach for grey-box fuzzing (2404.18887v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce an approach for improving the early exploration of grey-box fuzzing campaigns; allowing the fuzzer to reach the interesting coverage earlier. To do this, it leverages information from the system under test's (SUT's) control flow graph in order to decide which inputs are likely to lead to discovering most coverage when mutated.
