Fuzzing is the technique of finding flaws and vulnerabilities in solutions through the mutation of data. This technique is a preferred way of both defenders and attackers to discover vulnerabilities in a system. The Peach Fuzzing Framework is the most widely used fuzzing system. Researchers, corporations, and governments use Peach to find vulnerabilities in systems. Peach was designed to fuzz any type of data consumer from servers to embedded systems. Peach is a cross platform system running on Windows, Linux, and OS X.
This class will focus on the latest release of Peach 3 and is taught by Michael Eddington the creator of Peach.
You will learn to create both dumb and smart fuzzers and apply these concepts and tools to their unique environment. The course is designed to be student-centric, hands-on, and lab intensive. On day one the Peach Fuzzing Framework is introduced from a practitioner's perspective. You will learn how to use Peach to fuzz a variety of targets including network clients & servers, file consumers, and API interfaces such as COM. On the second day you will develop and run fuzzers against different targets mutating data and collecting crashes.
Upon completion of the course and labs you will be able to:
Printed slide book, Printed lab guide, USB Memory Stick with VMware images
Students must provide a modern laptop (dual core minimum) with a minimum of 2GB RAM and 30GB free disk with vmware player (or similar) pre-installed.
