Glossary
Fuzzing
An automated software testing technique that feeds a program large volumes of malformed, unexpected, or random input to trigger crashes, memory errors, or other unexpected behavior that may indicate an exploitable vulnerability. It is widely used by both security researchers and attackers to discover zero-day flaws.
