Abstract

This paper attempts to find an effective security detection method for EPC through the analysis of LTE EPC model and S1AP. This paper uses fuzzing test techniques to detect security issues in EPC. In order to improve the efficiency of fuzzing test, this paper proposes a state-based mutation method. By using this method and the traditional fuzzing test method to test the S1AP in the OAI system respectively, and comparing the number of crashes of the tested program, it proves that the state-based fuzzing test method is effective.
