Fuzzing has played an important role in improving software development and testing over the course of several decades. Recent research in fuzzing has focused on applications of machine learning (ML), offering useful tools to overcome challenges in the fuzzing process. This review surveys the current research in applying ML to fuzzing. Specifically, this review discusses successful applications of ML to fuzzing, briefly explores challenges encountered, and motivates future research to address fuzzing bottlenecks.

  1. SoK: Where to Fuzz? Assessing Target Selection Methods in Directed Fuzzing

    cs.SE 2025-02 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    Simple code metrics, especially Leopard's vulnerability scores, retrieve crash-relevant functions more accurately than sanitizer heuristics, recently-changed code, or deep learning models on a corpus of 1,621 real crashes.

  2. Empirical Notes on the Interaction Between Continuous Kernel Fuzzing and Development

    cs.SE 2019-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A descriptive study of syzbot-reported kernel crashes finds BSD kernels fix fuzz-found bugs faster, about 23 percent of Linux fixes are reviewed or tested, and only files-modified code churn weakly predicts Linux fix times.
