Fusil 1.0beta1
--------------
This is the first beta of the final Fusil 1.0 release. Please try all fuzzers
as much as possible: on different OS, with different CPU, different Python
version, etc. ;-) Changes:
* Convert projects to programs so it's possible to execute directly a fuzzer
and a fuzzer has its own command line options
* Remove all generated files: use --keep-generated-files to keep them
* Use ptrace debugger in CreateProcess to watch process signals
* Fix "Too many files open" bug: CreateProcess waits until process death to
avoid creation of process zombi
* Create a shell script (replay.sh) to replay a session, and gdb.sh to
replay it in gdb
* Create a configuration file, fusil.conf, to choose some global options like
using the CPU probe or a debugger
* Replace usage of FileWatch.patterns by FileWatch.addRegex()
* Create AttachProcessPID() to watch a running process identified by its
identifier (instead of its name)
* Remove many debug messages: from the Multi Agent System, from the network
client and server (don't log data exchange by default), don't show
file/process informations
* NetworkClient: close socket on session stop
* NetworkClient: support non-blocking receive (timeout=0)
* Create MangleProcess to simplify the fuzzers using an MangleAgent
* A fuzzer is now a Python executable program and a Python module:
move all projects from projects/ to fuzzers/, and remove
run_fusil.sh script
* AutoMangle: use increment operation for aggressivity >= 0.25
* Create FileWatch.fromFilename() static method
* Improve Python 3.0 support
* Run Fusil as an different user and group to avoid arbitrary file remove
or process kill
* Rename a session using strings like "abort", "timeout",
"invalid_write", ...
python-ptrace 0.4.1
-------------------
This version just adds some minor features needed by Fusil 1.0beta1:
* The project has a new dedicated website: http://python-ptrace.hachoir.org/
* Create cptrace: optional Python binding of ptrace written in C (faster
than ptrace, the Python binding written in Python with ctypes)
* Add name attribute to SignalInfo classes
* Fixes to help Python 3.0 compatibility: don't use sys.exc_clear()
(was useless) in writeBacktrace()
* ProcessState: create utime, stime, starttime attributes
