LAQy: Efficient and Reusable Query Approximations via Lazy Sampling

Anastasia Ailamaki, Periklis Chrysogelos, Viktor Sanca

Modern analytical engines rely on Approximate Query Processing (AQP) to provide faster response times than the hardware allows for exact query answering. However, existing AQP methods impose steep performance penalties as workload unpredictability increase ...

A RISC-V Extension to Minimize Privileges of Enclave Runtimes

Edouard Bugnion, Neelu Shivprakash Kalani

In confidential computing, the view of the system software is Manichean: the host operating system is untrusted and the TEE runtime system is fully trusted. However, the runtime system is often as complex as a full operating system, and thus is not free fr ...

The Side-channel Metrics Cheat Sheet

Francesco Regazzoni, Mirjana Stojilovic, Ognjen Glamocanin, Dorian Ros

Side-channel attacks exploit a physical observable originating from a cryptographic device in order to extract its secrets. Many practically relevant advances in the field of side-channel analysis relate to security evaluations of cryptographic functions a ...

Electrical-Level Attacks on CPUs, FPGAs, and GPUs: Survey and Implications in the Heterogeneous Era

Mirjana Stojilovic, Dina Gamaleldin Ahmed Shawky Mahmoud

Given the need for efficient high-performance computing, computer architectures combining CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs are nowadays prevalent. However, each of these components suffers from electrical-level security risks. Moving to heterogeneous systems, with th ...

MINERVA: Browser API Fuzzing with Dynamic Mod-Ref Analysis

Mathias Josef Payer, Yu Jiang, Chijin Zhou

Browser APIs are essential to the modern web experience. Due to their large number and complexity, they vastly expand the attack surface of browsers. To detect vulnerabilities in these APIs, fuzzers generate test cases with a large amount of random API inv ...

Distributed Momentum for Byzantine-resilient Stochastic Gradient Descent

Rachid Guerraoui, El Mahdi El Mhamdi, Sébastien Louis Alexandre Rouault

Byzantine-resilient Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) aims at shielding model training from Byzantine faults, be they ill-labeled training datapoints, exploited software/hardware vulnerabilities, or malicious worker nodes in a distributed setting. Two rece ...

Preventing Use-After-Free Attacks with Fast Forward Allocation

Sanidhya Kashyap, Jungwon Lim

Memory-unsafe languages are widely used to implement critical systems like kernels and browsers, leading to thousands of memory safety issues every year. A use-after-free bug is a temporal memory error where the program accidentally visits a freed memory l ...
