Super psyched to unveil GUIFuzz++: our grey-box fuzzer for desktop GUI applications, led by FuTURES³ Lab undergraduate researchers Dillon Otto and @trowlett0.bsky.social.

Coming soon to ASE 2025!

GUIFuzz++ is the first general-purpose fuzzer for desktop GUI software! Fuzzing by translating AFL++ random input into user interaction with GUIs, leading to the discovery of 23 new bugs!

Go test some GUIs!

Fuzzing GUIs shouldn’t be harder than fuzzing files.

That's why I am excited to share my first paper (w/ fellow undergrad Dillon Otto + @snagycs.bsky.social) "GUIFuzz++: Unleashing Grey-box Fuzzing on Desktop Graphical User Interfacing Applications" at #ASE25.

Curious about fuzzing but don't know where to start? I wrote my first blog post on how to choose your target, build an AFL++-compatible harness, and avoid common pitfalls.

I'll be in Boston for #USENIX #ATC25. Reach out if you'd like to meet up to talk fuzzing / binary analysis!

Happy to share my upcoming #ATC25 paper w/ @snagycs.bsky.social: "BIN2WRONG: a Unified Fuzzing Framework for Uncovering Semantic Errors in Binary-to-C Decompilers"!

Bin2Wrong creates binaries by mutating source, compiler, optimizations, and format—revealing 48 new bugs in 7 decompilers! 💪

Awesome job by my PhD student @gabriel-sherman.bsky.social presenting his work on Oracle-guided C Fuzzing Harness Generation! @icseconf.bsky.social

TLDR; 41 new bugs (40 now patched)... with 0 false positives!

✈️ I'll be at @icseconf.bsky.social this week — find me if you'd like to chat about all things fuzzing / binary analysis!

Today, we’re honoring the lives of the 32 Hokies who were tragically taken from their loved ones and the Virginia Tech community on April 16, 2007.

On the 2025 Day of Remembrance, we're honoring the lasting impact they continue to have on our world. #VTWeRemember 🧡

OGHarn mutationally generates harnesses and uses 3 oracles of behavior to determine both their utility and validity, leading to the discovery of 41 new bugs(with zero false-positive crashes)!

Need a fuzzing harness? No time to write one? Tired of false-positives? Let OGHarn lead the way to bug discovery!🐞

I'm excited to share my paper(with @snagycs.bsky.social)"No Harness, No Problem: Oracle-guided Harnessing for Auto-generating C API Fuzzing Harnesses" at @icseconf.bsky.social 2025!
