AFL-Unicorn - Fuzzing the 'Unfuzzable'

Explore the innovative afl-unicorn tool for fuzzing complex and hard-to-reach code in this 25-minute conference talk by Nathan Voss. Learn how to bridge the gap between manual reverse engineering and automated vulnerability discovery using afl-unicorn, which combines the power of American Fuzzy Lop (AFL) with emulation techniques. Discover a repeatable workflow for fuzzing embedded systems, parsing functions, and other challenging targets that are typically inaccessible via command line interfaces. Gain insights into successful applications of afl-unicorn across various domains, from single-threaded embedded RF firmware to complex Windows and Linux applications. Understand how this tool can revolutionize your approach to automated vulnerability analysis, allowing you to leverage AFL's coverage-based advantages on emulated code segments.
