Homo in Machina: Improving Fuzz Testing Coverage via Compartment Analysis Open
Fuzz testing is often automated, but also frequently augmented by experts who insert themselves into the workflow in a greedy search for bugs. In this paper, we propose Homo in Machina, or HM-fuzzing, in which analyses guide the manual eff…
