   If by brute force you mean checking the entire key space, fuzzing can be made to sound quite similar to encryption. There is a specific program path, or "key", that leads to a crash. Fuzzers attempt to search all paths in a somewh

   On 2.1, I"m not sure this is security through obscurity. I can send a malicious individual a link to this paper saying I used these techniques on my binary but fuzzing will still be more difficult. Just like encryption takes my message

   In practice I think this is akin to asking someone to write bug free code the first time. Regardless of this specific paper, assuming all bugs can be found and fixed is not a sound assumption. I'm happy to see techniques that correctl

   What prevents free software from using this technique?
