Computers, Materials & Continua· Volume 81· Issue 1

Abstract

RESTful API fuzzing is a promising method for automated vulnerability detection in Kubernetes platforms. Existing tools struggle with generating lengthy, high-semantic request sequences that can pass Kubernetes API gateway ch... | Find, read and cite all the research you need on Tech Science Press
