USBFuzz: A Framework for Fuzzing USB Drivers by Device Emulation

Mathias Josef Payer, Hui Peng

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) connects external devices to a host. This interface exposes the OS kernels and device drivers to attacks by malicious devices. Unfortunately, kernels and drivers were developed under a security model that implicitly trusts co ...

Convolution Engine: Balancing Efficiency and Flexibility in Specialized Computing

Christos Kozyrakis

General-purpose processors, while tremendously versatile, pay a huge cost for their flexibility by wasting over 99% of the energy in programmability overheads. We observe that reducing this waste requires tuning data storage and compute structures and thei ...
