Evaluating the Effectiveness of LLMs in Aiding Compliance Testing of PKCS#1-v1.5 (opens in new tab)

Testing implementations of binary protocols for specification compliance requires inputs that satisfy both structural and semantic constraints. Purely random generation and primitive mutations are often insufficient for exploring semantically meaningful behaviors in protocols that rely on Type-Length-Value (TLV) encoding, yet domain-specific compliance testing tools require deep protocol expertise and significant manual effort to construct. This...
