A directed greybox fuzzer for windows applications by Xin Ren, Peng-fei Wang, Xu Zhou, Kai Lu

“…Abstract Directed greybox fuzzing (DGF) has proven effective in vulnerability discovery, but most efforts focus on the Linux platform, with substantially less attention devoted to Windows platform due to its closed-source and GUI software nature. This paper proposes WinDGF, a novel directed greybox fuzzer for Windows applications that addresses challenges including target function localization in persistent testing, GUI bypassing, and fitness metric calculation. …”
