Rode0day

A continuous bug finding competition

We release a corpus of buggy binaries every month. You earn points by making them crash. At the end of each month, we declare a winner and release an answer key.

What's this?

By running monthly bug finding competitions, we hope to provide an unbiased evaluation of vulnerability discovery techniques. We use automated bug insertion to generate a new corpus of buggy programs for each competition. After each, we release our data so everyone can learn from the results.

When do we start?

The start date of the next competition has yet to be finalized. Check back soon for updates.
