DIFUZE
A fuzzer for Linux kernel drivers that combines interface recovery via LLVM analysis with a fuzzing engine to find security vulnerabilities.
What is DIFUZE?
difuze is a fuzzing framework specifically designed for Linux kernel drivers. It addresses the challenge of fuzzing complex, closed-source-like driver interfaces by first using LLVM-based static analysis to recover those interfaces, then applying a fuzzing engine to test them for vulnerabilities.
Security researchers, kernel developers, and embedded systems engineers focused on finding and mitigating security vulnerabilities in Linux kernel drivers, particularly for mobile and embedded devices.
Developers choose difuze because it automates the difficult task of interface recovery for kernel drivers, enabling targeted fuzzing that is more likely to find real bugs compared to blind fuzzing approaches, and it supports a wide range of chipset vendors.
