## Tools

Tools which helps in fuzzing applications

File Format Fuzzers

Fuzzers which helps in fuzzing file formats like pdf, mp3, swf etc.,

MiniFuzz - Basic file format fuzzing tool by Microsoft.

BFF from CERT - Basic Fuzzing Framework for file formats.

AFL Fuzzer (Linux only) - American Fuzzy Loop Fuzzer by Michal Zalewski aka lcamtuf

Win AFL - A fork of AFL for fuzzing Windows binaries by Ivan Fratic

TriforceAFL - A modified version of AFL that supports fuzzing for applications whose source code not available.

Peach Fuzzer - Framework which helps to create custom dumb and smart fuzzers.

MozPeach - A fork of peach 2.7 by Mozilla Security.

Failure Observation Engine (FOE) - mutational file-based fuzz testing tool for windows applications.

rmadair - mutation based file fuzzer that uses PyDBG to monitor for signals of interest.

### Network Protocol Fuzzers

Fuzzers which helps in fuzzing applications which use network based protocals like HTTP, SSH, SMTP etc.,

Peach Fuzzer - Framework which helps to create custom dumb and smart fuzzers.

Sulley - A fuzzer development and fuzz testing framework consisting of multiple extensible components by Michael Sutton.

boofuzz - A fork and successor of Sulley framework.

Spike - A fuzzer development framework like sulley, a predecessor of sulley.

Metasploit Framework - A framework which contains some fuzzing capabilities via Auxiliary modules.

### Taint Analysis ( How user input affects the execution)

PANDA ( Platform for Architecture-Neutral Dynamic Analysis )

QIRA (QEMU Interactive Runtime Analyser)

### Essential Tools (generic)

Tools of the trade for exploit developers, reverse engineers

Debuggers

Windbg - The preferred debugger by exploit writers.

Immunity Debugger - Immunity Debugger by Immunity Sec.

OllyDbg - The debugger of choice by reverse engineers and exploit writers alike.

Mona.py ( Plugin for windbg and Immunity dbg ) - Awesome tools that makes life easy for exploit developers.

x64dbg - An open-source x64/x32 debugger for windows.

Evan's Debugger (EDB) - Front end for gdb.

GDB - Gnu Debugger - The favorite linux debugger.

PEDA - Python Exploit Development Assistance for GDB.

Radare2 - Framework for reverse-engineering and analyzing binaries.

#### Disassemblers and some more

Dissemblers, disassembly frameworks etc.,

IDA Pro - The best disassembler

binnavi - Binary analysis IDE, annotates control flow graphs and call graphs of disassembled code.

Capstone - Capstone is a lightweight multi-platform, multi-architecture disassembly framework.

#### Others

ltrace - Intercepts library calls

strace - Intercepts system calls
