We present our work-in-progress on designing and implementing a black-box evolutionary fuzzer for REST APIs, specifically targeting 5G core networks that utilize a service-based architecture (SBA). Unlike existing tools that rely on static generation-based approaches, our approach progressively refines test inputs to explore deeper code regions in the target system. We incorporate a thorough analysis of the limited response message feedback available in black-box settings and employ a carefully crafted mutation method to generate effective state-aware test inputs. Evaluation of our current implementation has uncovered two previously unknown vulnerabilities in open-source 5G core network implementations, resulting in the assignment of two CVEs. Additionally, our approach already demonstrates superior performance compared to existing black-box fuzzing methods.
