METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR CONVERGING ON NETWORK PROTOCOL STACK VULNERABILITIES USING FUZZING VARIABLES, VULNERABILITY RATINGS AND PROGRESSIVE CONVERGENCE
METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR CONVERGING ON NETWORK PROTOCOL STACK VULNERABILITIES USING FUZZING VARIABLES, VULNERABILITY RATINGS AND PROGRESSIVE CONVERGENCE
A method for progressive convergence on network protocol stack vulnerabilities includes defining an initial protocol field and field value space for fuzz testing of a network communications protocol stack implementation. The method further includes dividing the initial space into regions corresponding to combinations of protocol fields and field values. The method further includes assigning vulnerability ratings to at least some of the regions. The method further includes executing fuzz testing of the network communications protocol stack implementation using the protocol fields and field values corresponding to the regions. The method further includes updating the vulnerability ratings of the regions based on results of the testing. The method further includes identifying, based on the updated vulnerability ratings, at least one region with a higher vulnerability rating than other regions. The method further includes performing fuzz testing for the sub-regions.
