[MirageOS-devel] OPW intern checking in!

[Mindy <mindy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi folks!  Today's the first official day of OPW internships, which run 
through the middle of August.  I'm slated to be working on fuzzing 
Mirage's network stack, for which I've already done a small amount of 
investigatory work.
I'm working on a framework for testing and analysis within Scapy, the 
packet manipulation DSL for Python 2.7.  I did some preliminary work on 
this when looking for more denial-of-service bugs in the DHCP client 
option parsing code of mirage-tcpip and will be working on both 
generalizing that work, and writing specific tests and analyses for 
other layers in the stack this week beginning with HTTP.  Additionally, 
I plan to write a blog post with more details on my progress and 
motivation in the middle of the week.
I'll also be sending periodic updates to the list with details on my 
progress and plans for immediate future work.  Unless someone has a 
different preference, I'll do this in reply to this message, so folks 
can choose to filter out these messages if they find them undesirable.
Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions!

Thanks,
Mindy (yomimono)
