Mishegos ← implements 100% 1e evidence

Mishegos uses the sliding mutation engine to generate x86_64 instruction candidates by extracting windows of up to 15 bytes.

instruction candidate generation uses → 95% 1e evidence

The sliding mutation engine generates instruction candidates of up to 26 bytes and extracts windows for fuzzing.

ModR/M byte uses → 90% 1e evidence

The sliding mutation engine grooms ModR/M fields when generating instruction candidates.

SIB byte uses → 90% 1e evidence

The sliding mutation engine grooms SIB fields when generating instruction candidates.

instruction prefix uses → 95% 1e evidence

The sliding mutation engine includes structurally valid prefixes in its instruction candidates and spends significant time testing different sequences of prefixes.

window-based fuzzing uses → 95% 1e evidence

The sliding mutation engine operates by extracting windows of up to 15 bytes from each instruction candidate.

window-based fuzzing ← part of 90% 1e evidence

Window-based fuzzing is the core mechanism of the sliding mutation engine.
