The AFL (American Fuzzy Lop) tool is a powerful open-source fuzzer designed for security testing by automatically generating a vast array of test cases to identify vulnerabilities in software. Its primary use case lies in discovering bugs in binaries by utilizing genetic algorithms to evolve test cases based on code coverage analysis. Notable features include the ability to perform instrumented fuzzing, support for various file formats, and real-time feedback on code paths, enhancing the effectiveness of vulnerability discovery.
