WHY AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'???

[ampresent]

I got this exception when I was trying my first sulley project, fuzzing apache. Any idea? I'm under ubuntu 15.04, btw

The output of process_monitor is as follows:

[09:40.03] updating target process name to 'apache2'
[09:40.03] starting target process
PED-RPC> remote method pre_send cannot be found
PED-RPC> remote method post_send cannot be found
PED-RPC> remote method get_crash_synopsis cannot be found

The fuzzing program:

from sulley import * from requests import http

def try_recv(sock): print 'SKIP!'

sess = sessions.session(session_filename="audits/apache2.session") target = sessions.target('127.0.0.1', 80) target.netmon = pedrpc.client('127.0.0.1', 26001) target.procmon = pedrpc.client('127.0.0.1', 26002) target.procmon_options = {'proc_name': 'apache2'}

sess.pre_send = try_recv sess.add_target(target) sess.connect(s_get("HTTP VERBS")) sess.connect(s_get("HTTP VERBS BASIC")) sess.connect(s_get("HTTP VERBS POST")) sess.connect(s_get("HTTP HEADERS")) sess.connect(s_get("HTTP COOKIE")) sess.fuzz()

I got "kinda" the same problem - process monitor is fine for me though, and restarts target as it should:

• [10:04.44] Process Monitor PED-RPC server initialized:
• [10:04.44] Listening on 0.0.0.0:26002
• [10:04.44] awaiting requests...
• [10:04.53] updating target process name to 'pcswebchat'
• [10:04.53] updating stop commands to: ['pkill pcswebchat']
• [10:04.53] updating start commands to: ['./pcswebchat']
• [10:04.53] starting target process
• ['./pcswebchat']
• [10:04.53] done. target up and running, giving it 5 seconds to settle in.
• [10:04.59] starting target process
• ['./pcswebchat']
• [10:04.59] done. target up and running, giving it 5 seconds to settle in.

But the fuzzer fails to continue, and gives the same error as above:
