Running with rabbits for beginners
Trainer: Hugh Davenport
Bio
Hugh is a software developer and security consultant based in Wellington, NZ. He has an interest in bounties, fuzzing and training.
Description
This training session will give attendees a rundown on how to work with the american fuzzy lop (afl) fuzzing tool. This fuzzer allows users to find memory corruption bugs among others.
The training session will have some example programs that contain bugs, walk through setting up the fuzzer, running it, and triaging the bugs. Some details will be given on both exploiting and fixing the bugs as well. Note that these will be simulated bugs in programs/libraries only used for training. No zero days will be presented.
