Fuzzing, or fuzz testing, is defined as an automated software testing method that uses a wide range of invalid and unexpected data as input to find flaws in the software undergoing the test. The flaws do not necessarily have to be security vulnerabilities. Fuzzing can also bring other undesirable or unexpected behavior of the software to light. But it’s good to realize that bugs discovered through fuzzing account for the majority of new CVE entries.
