The original title is “ Java Bugs with and without Fuzzing – AFL-based Java fuzzers and the Java Security Manager”
The author discusses their use of JQF and Kelinci. They share their observations, various findings, their realisations on what it would mean to fuzz Java libraries and how to go about it.
The examples of how certain inputs caused code to enter infinite loops was thought provoking.
A scenario that I thought of: With today’s cloud availability, one might get tempted to “let auto scaling take care of load “. The article got me thinking of scenarios where carefully crafted data or inputs ( images and PDFs that one uploads) could cause image processors and applications to hangs and thus trigger a runaway auto scale up.
I recommend reading this article.
