A Genetic File, Sycall and Network Fuzzer for Unix systems.

Real README.md coming soon, I just need to fix a few bugs and add a few features! I will start adding the missing features and known bugs to the issue tracker.

In the mean time FreeBSD and OSX users can build and "use" nextgen.

Due to a regression in concurrencykit a nextgen dependency you will have to go into deps and build concurrencykit manually. Run ./configure && gmake in the ck-0.5.1 directory to build concurrencykit.

Now you will be able to use gmake or make on OSX to build the rest of nextgen.

Use gmake quick if you don't wan't to build the dependencies and only want to build nextgen, note you will have to build the dependencies at least once.

gmake build-test will build the test suite.

Use gmake test to test nextgen and it's dependencies otherwise use gmake test-quick to only test nextgen.

Install nextgen with sudo make install. This will install the required dynamic libraries built earlier.

To run nextgen use the binary in the nextgen directory, if you run nextgen outside it's directory, nextgen won't find it's plugin directory. This limitation will be fixed later.

Below is an example of running nextgen as a syscall fuzzer.

sudo ./nextgen --syscall --out /file/path/to/create/output/directory

To use the syscall fuzzer without probes and the genetic algo pass --dumb.

sudo ./nextgen --syscall --dumb --out /file/path/to/create/output/directory

Nextgen will be ported to other operating systems besides FreeBSD and OSX and will be implemented in this order illumos, Linux, OpenBSD, and finally NetBSD. Porting Nextgen is mainly a matter of on having a working libdtrace available on your platform.
