Abstract :
We investigated whether some of the image viewer applications that render HD photo image files are susceptible to compromise by opening a malformed HD photo image file. We customized and used an automated toolset to conduct both mutation- and generation-based fuzzing to conduct the assessment. The results of exercising the test cases indicate that the image viewer applications are highly resistant to easy-to-find security bugs often discovered by fuzzers.
