performing-fuzzing-with-aflplusplus
Perform coverage-guided fuzzing of compiled binaries using AFL++ (American Fuzzy Lop Plus Plus) to discover memory corruption, crashes, and security vulnerabilities. The tester instruments target binaries with afl-cc/afl-clang-fast, manages input corpora with afl-cmin and afl-tmin, runs parallel fuzzing campaigns with afl-fuzz, and triages crashes using CASR or GDB scripts. Activates for requests involving binary fuzzing, crash discovery, coverage-guided testing, or AFL++ fuzzing campaigns.

# Performing Fuzzing with AFL++
## Overview
AFL++ is a community-maintained fork of American Fuzzy Lop (AFL) that provides coverage-guided
fuzzing for compiled binaries. It instruments targets at compile time or via QEMU/Unicorn mode
for binary-only fuzzing, then mutates input corpora to discover new code paths. AFL++ includes
advanced scheduling (MOpt, rare), custom mutators, CMPLOG for input-to-state comparison solving,
and persistent mode for high-throughput fuzzing.
## When to Use
- When conducting security assessments that involve performing fuzzing with aflplusplus
- When following incident response procedures for related security events
