keep in mind:
bug != security hole
- dfc 13y agoI have not finished reading the paper but after the second sentence in the abstract it seems that the authors clearly define what they consider to be a bug: Every bug reported by MAYHEM is accompanied by a working shell-spawning exploit. The working exploits ensure soundness and that each bug report is security critical and actionable.
- bugfinder 13y agoMayhem changed quite a bit since the publication of the paper. It now reports all crashes, and therefore bugs are not necessarily security critical.
