When first targeting an application, we must define all of the building blocks that will represent the protocol we are fuzzing. Sulley ships with a whole host of these data formats, which enable you to quickly create both simple and advanced protocol descriptions. These individual data components are called primitives. We will briefly cover the primitives required to thoroughly fuzz the WarFTPD server.
