AFL++

AFL++ is a fork of the original AFL fuzzer that offers better fuzzing performance and more advanced features while maintaining stability. A major benefit over libFuzzer is that AFL++ has stable support for running fuzzing campaigns on multiple cores, making it ideal for large-scale fuzzing efforts.

When to Use

Choose AFL++ when:

• You need multi-core fuzzing to maximize throughput
• Your project can be compiled with Clang or GCC
• You want diverse mutation strategies and mature tooling
• libFuzzer has plateaued and you need more coverage
• You're fuzzing production codebases that benefit from parallel execution
