Fuzzers vs. AI: Comparing Fuzzilli and BigSleep on JavaScript Engines

Project Zero compared Fuzzilli and BigSleep, two automated vulnerability-finding tools for Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine, over six months. BigSleep found slightly more bugs (45 vs 37), but with ~60% theoretical overlap, both approaches remain complementary. The report recommends vendors use both fuzzing and LLM-based analysis to maximize vulnerability discovery.

Background

Project Zero is Google's security research team focused on identifying zero-day vulnerabilities in widely used software. JavaScript engines like V8 are high-value fuzzing targets due to their complexity and exposure to user input.
