CHIMERA - Fuzzing P4 Network Infrastructure for Multi-Plane Bug Detection and Vulnerability Discovery

Explore advanced network security research through this 15-minute IEEE conference presentation that introduces CHIMERA, a specialized fuzzing framework designed to detect bugs and vulnerabilities in P4-based network infrastructure across multiple planes. Learn about the innovative approach to testing programmable data plane networks, understand the multi-plane architecture vulnerabilities that traditional testing methods often miss, and discover how CHIMERA's fuzzing techniques can systematically uncover security flaws in modern software-defined networking environments. Gain insights into the methodology behind automated vulnerability discovery in P4 programs, examine real-world case studies of bugs detected through this framework, and understand the implications for securing next-generation network infrastructure that relies on programmable packet processing.
