Infosec: using fuzzers to find vulnerabilities

Posted on Wednesday, February 16th, 2011 in demonstrations, documentation, hacks, Linux, skills, tools by the machinegeek

Infosec Resources has a free online tutorial, An Introduction to Fuzzing: Using fuzzers (SPIKE) to find vulnerabilities. While not directly related to microcontrollers, this resource provides a hands-on guide to using open source Linux tools to find vulnerabilities in code on a networked Windows machine.

To fully participate in this demo, you’ll need two machines on your own network: one target with Windows, one fuzzing system with Linux (BackTrack 4 Final or later recommended.)

  • KH: Really? They are digital inputs driven by an MCU. The MCU GPIO probably has diode clamps and ESD protection. Have you experienced such failures? Please...
  • KH: Neither. Google "Marco Schweighauser’s 8-bit virtual Javascript CPU" and see the first result. Sounds more like a very limited feature toy CPU.
  • Alan: "8-bit x86 like CPU" - isn't that an 8080, or Z80?
  • Geoff: Is it still Sunday somewhere? If so, yes please.
