AFL warning: Last new path : none yet (odd, check syntax!)


I have this warning

(Last new path : none yet (odd, check syntax!))

in red after I try to fuzzing a file. I have no idea why it happens and I googled with no answers.

My command is like:

afl-fuzz -i testcases/ -o findings/ tcpdump-4.6.2/tcpdump -nr @@

Solution

  • It usually means that your command line doesn't actually read the file. Try running it without afl-fuzz, substituting @@ with a path to a file from the testcases directory. Hopefully tcpdump's message will tell you what is wrong.

    In the future, you might get more attention on the afl-users mailing list. Try that if you're not getting any help on SO.
