MUTATION and RANDOM extend afl-fuzz.c in function \"common_fuzz_stuff\" and CASE in function \"calculate_score\".\n\nWe extended AFL to use 3 additional flags:\n\n| **AFL-Flag** | **Mode**   |\n| --- | --- |\n| -R MODE | Run CuriousAFL in either MUTATION (default), RANDOM, CASE   |\n| -P **Port**| Connect to Python Curiosity RPC server on port **Port**. Only needed in MUTATION and CASE. |\n| -r Percentile | If CuriousAFL runs in RANDOM mode, provide a percentile value to cancel out of seeds (e.g. 10, default: 0) |\n\n## Seeds  \nAll seeds used in the thesis can be found in the [folder](https://github.com/derdav3/CuriousAFL/tree/master/seeds_programs) \"seeds_programs\".\n\n## Examples\nIt's helpful to understand how to run \"vanilla\" AFL, before trying to run CuriousAFL. Please refer to the official [source](http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/README.txt) for a guide.\n\nAfter following our [Installation guide](https://github.com/derdav3/CuriousAFL/wiki/Installation), the following are possible usecases (assuming you have CuriousAFL in /home/CuriousAFL and there is a seed folder `afl_in`):\n\n### MUTATION (objdump)\n`cd` into the testcase folder and start 2 terminals.  \n\nLaunch the python RND script:  \n`python3 /home/CuriousAFL/CuriousAFL/rnd_server.py --projectbase=./ --port 44444`\n\nLaunch CuriousAFL:  \n`/home/CuriousAFL/CuriousAFL/afl-fuzz -i afl_in/ -o afl_out/ -R MUTATION -P 44444 ./objdump -D @@`\n\n### RANDOM (objdump)\n`cd` into the testcase folder.  \n(python script is not needed)\n\nLaunch CuriousAFL:  \n`/home/CuriousAFL/CuriousAFL/afl-fuzz -i afl_in/ -o afl_out/ -R RANDOM -r 10 ./objdump -D @@`\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fackdav%2Fcuriousafl","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fackdav%2Fcuriousafl","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fackdav%2Fcuriousafl/lists"}
