Degrees of Separation: A Flexible Type System for Safe Concurrency
Martin Odersky, Yichen Xu, Aleksander Slawomir Boruch-Gruszecki
Data races have long been a notorious problem in concurrent programming. They are subtle to detect, and lead to non-deterministic behaviours. There has been a lot of interest in type systems that statically guarantee data race freedom. Significant progress ...
2024Safe Low-Level Code Without Overhead is Practical
George Candea, Solal Vincenzo Pirelli
Developers write low-level systems code in unsafe programming languages due to performance concerns. The lack of safety causes bugs and vulnerabilities that safe languages avoid. We argue that safety without run-time overhead is possible through type invar ...
IEEE COMPUTER SOC2023Creating Trust by Abolishing Hierarchies
Mathias Josef Payer, Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias, Adrien Ghosn, Charly Nicolas Lucien Castes, Neelu Shivprakash Kalani, Yuchen Qian
Software is going through a trust crisis. Privileged code is no longer trusted and processes insufficiently protect user code from unverified libraries. While usually treated separately, confidential computing and program compartmentalization are both symp ...
Association for Computing Machinery2023Preventing Use-After-Free Attacks with Fast Forward Allocation
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 ...
USENIX ASSOC2021Enclosure: Language-Based Restriction of Untrusted Libraries
James Richard Larus, Mathias Josef Payer, Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias, Adrien Ghosn
Programming languages and systems have failed to address the security implications of the increasingly frequent use of public libraries to construct modern software. Most languages provide tools and online repositories to publish, import, and use libraries ...
