Dictionary format

[tosanjay]

Hello,
I noticed that Jackalope has an option to accept dictionary for the target application input format. I could not get any example of such a dictionary's format. The readme only says that 1 entry per line. Can someone point out what format the dictionary should be?

thanks

Right, a dictionary is a text file that contains one entry per line. Additionally, the dictionary format supports \xAB hex encoding (e.g. \x0A is the encoded newline character). You can see the code that reads the dictionary here: https://github.com/googleprojectzero/Jackalope/blob/main/mutator.cpp#L280

thank you @ifratric . I wanted to know this clearly as the dinctionary format for AFL based fuzzer is like one pattern per line in the format of name="value". Now, I know that this is not the case with Jackalope. it just expects the value.

Right, in Jackalope it's values only. Not sure if/for what names are used in afl, but in Jackalope they are not needed.
