Course Updates: Project 2 Released, Grades for Project 1 Published, and Assignment Changes
Written on 14.01.2026 17:59 by Valentin Huber
Project 2 has now been released and is available on GitHub Classroom, you find the link in the CMS in the materials section, as usual. Please make sure to read the project description carefully and plan your work accordingly.
The grades for project 1 have been published and can be viewed in the grading system. Students who used custom seeds will receive 0 points for both parts, students who didn't pass the minimum coverage for either part will receive 0 points for the failed part(s). For fairness' sake with regards to the students who used their own seeds, we will also drop the requirement that project 1 needs to be passed to pass the course. Students who received a non-passing grade for project 1 will need to make up for the missing points in assignments, project 2 and the exam.
❗️Please check your points in the CMS and notify us if you cannot see them.
The new rules are as follows: the projects individually, the asssignments as a total, and the exam will each contribute 25% of your final grade, with each scaled to its respective maximum points. You need to pass all of the following with a passing grade to pass the course: project 2, the assignments (as a whole), and the exam.
Please note a change to the assignment schedule. The assignment sheet planned for this week will be skipped, as you have already done compiler fuzzing in project 1. Instead, the remaining two assignment sheets later in the course will each be worth 15 points.
Additionally, we encountered an permission issue with Assignment 9 that affected 2 students. These students did not receive writing permissions for their assignment repository. If you were affected, you saw a page saying “Repository access issue” when accepting the assignment. If this applies to you, please visit
https://github.com/fuzzing2526/2526-assignment-09-[YourGitHubUsername]/
and accept the invitation manually.
For example is your github username is 'examplename':
https://github.com/fuzzing2526/2526-assignment-09-examplename/
Due to this issue, the deadline for Assignment 9 has been extended by two days for everyone. The new deadline is 16.01.2026 at 14:00 CET. If you are not able to accept the assignment, contact alexander.liggesmeyer@cispa.de.
