Fuzzing binaries with Lévy flight swarms
We present a new method for random testing of binary executables inspired by biology. In our approach, we introduce the first fuzzer based on a mathematical model for optimal foraging. To minimize search time for possible vulnerabilities, we generate test cases with Lévy flights in the input space. In order to dynamically adapt test generation behavior to actual path exploration performance, we...

متن کاملAsymmetric Lévy flight in financial ratios.
Because financial crises are characterized by dangerous rare events that occur more frequently than those predicted by models with finite variances, we investigate the underlying stochastic process generating these events. In the 1960s Mandelbrot [Mandelbrot B (1963) J Bus 36:394-419] and Fama [Fama EF (1965) J Bus 38:34-105] proposed a symmetric Lévy probability distribution function (PDF) to ...
متن کاملEvolution of optimal Lévy-flight strategies in human mental searches
Recent analysis of empirical data [Radicchi, Baronchelli, and Amaral, PloS ONE 7, e029910 (2012)] showed that humans adopt Lévy-flight strategies when exploring the bid space in online auctions. A game theoretical model proved that the observed Lévy exponents are nearly optimal, being close to the exponent value that guarantees the maximal economical return to players. Here, we rationalize thes...
متن کاملOptimal Lévy-flight foraging in a finite landscape
We present a simple model to study Lévy-flight foraging with a power-law step-size distribution [P(l) ∞ l-μ] in a finite landscape with countable targets. We find that different optimal foraging strategies characterized by a wide range of power-law exponent μopt, from ballistic motion (μopt → 1) to Lévy flight (1 < μopt < 3) to Brownian motion (μopt ≥ 3), may arise in adaptation to the interpla...
