Improving systems software security through program analysis and instrumentation

Volodymyr Kuznetsov

Security and reliability bugs are prevalent in systems software. Systems code is often written in low-level languages like C/C++, which offer many benefits but also delegate memory management and type safety to programmers. This invites bugs that cause cra ...

Code-Pointer Integrity

George Candea, Mathias Josef Payer, Volodymyr Kuznetsov

Systems code is often written in low-level languages like C/C++, which offer many benefits but also delegate memory management to programmers. This invites memory safety bugs that attackers can exploit to divert control flow and compromise the system. Depl ...
