    The one thing that's not really fully encapsulated in a lot of these comment chains below is the role of custom written fuzzers for competitions like this. Frameworks like AFL, BooFuzz, etc. A properly written test file will allow for most of the hunting to happen automagically by tampering with function calls or inputs until something crashes. By configuring an environment appropriately, you can run millions of test cases, and get the crashes logged to parse through later. This allows the researchers/exploit writers to only focus on the exceptions/traces that seem the most fruitful. This is one methodology, it's not the case for everyone, but most codebases are too big to go through the ASM by hand these days.
