ChildProcessError: [Errno 10] No child processes and module 'os' has no attribute 'WCOREDUMP' about boofuzz HOT 4 CLOSED

As a shameless plug, you can use my Vtrace-based monitor to get a target debugger-based monitor as well

from boofuzz.

@Chinakentgao I Googled a bit and found https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.WCOREDUMP -- WCOREDUMP is Unix only, so this is indeed a bug.

The Windows procmon functionality has kind of fallen behind due to lack of attention. I think we disabled pydbg by default due to its lack of support (IIRC you need 32-bit Python and and maybe Python 2 as well), but there was probably a lack of Windows testing.

My best suggestion is to hack at the procmon code until it works with Windows. For example you might start with:

if hasattr(os, 'WCOREDUMP') and os.WCOREDUMP

for starters. The procmon code is a bit tricky and requires some interaction with the OS. Good luck!

Also hot tip: You can use markdown formatting in your issues to format code, which will make it easier for everyone to read. :)

I try to solve this problem using this method https://github.com/jtpereyda/boofuzz/issues/667#issuecomment-1476395074
