Hybrid Fuzzing with LLM-Guided Input Mutation and Semantic Feedback

Software fuzzing has become a cornerstone in automated vulnerability discovery, yet existing mutation strategies often lack semantic awareness, leading to redundant test cases and slow exploration of deep program states. In this work, I present a hybrid fuzzing framework that integrates static an...
