Media Fuzzing Framework for Android
A Python-based framework for fuzzing Android's Stagefright media engine to discover security vulnerabilities.
What is Media Fuzzing Framework for Android?
MFFA (Media Fuzzing Framework for Android) is an open-source security testing framework that automates the discovery of vulnerabilities in Android's Stagefright media engine. It generates structurally valid but corrupt media files, sends them to Android devices for decoding, and monitors for system crashes that could indicate exploitable security flaws. The tool helps identify issues like integer overflows and heap corruption in media processing components.
Security researchers, Android platform developers, and penetration testers focused on uncovering vulnerabilities in Android's media subsystems. It's particularly useful for those conducting systematic security assessments of Android devices.
Developers choose MFFA for its specialized focus on Android media security, automated distributed testing across multiple devices, and built-in triage mechanism that filters unique vulnerabilities. It provides a structured approach to fuzzing Stagefright that has proven effective in discovering critical CVEs.
