Abstract:Microcontroller Units (MCUs) play a vital role in embedded devices due to their energy efficiency and scalability. The firmware in MCUs contains vulnerabilities that can lead to digital and physical harm. However, testing MCU firmware faces challenges due to various tool limitations and unavailable firmware details. To address this problem, research is turning to fuzzing and rehosting. Due to the inherent imbalance in computational resources of the fuzzing algorithm and the lack of consideration for the comput… Show more
