Make Your Programs More Reliable with Fuzzing
Explore the world of fuzzing in this ACCU 2019 conference talk by Marshall Clow. Learn how to enhance program reliability when handling external data through this powerful technique. Discover the general concept of fuzzing, its importance, historical background, and current state-of-the-art practices. Gain insights into existing tools, libraries, and services that can help fortify your software. Examine real-world examples from libc++ and Boost, and benefit from the speaker's extensive experience in programming, including his roles as Boost.Algorithm author, C++ standard committee member, and lead developer for libc++. Delve into topics such as coverage-guided fuzzing, AFL, LibFuzzer, OSS Fuzz, and Cluster Fuzz, while exploring future directions in fuzzing inputs and application resetting.
