Virtualized environments are important building blocks in consolidated data centers and cloud computing. Full virtualization (FV) allows unmodified guest OSes to run on virtualization-aware microprocessors. However, the significant overhead of device emulation in FV has caused high I/O overhead. Current implementations based on paravirtualization can only reduce such overhead partially. This paper...
A new class of stealthy kernel-level malware, called transient kernel control flow attacks, uses dynamic soft timers to achieve significant work while avoiding any persistent changes to kernel code or data. We demonstrate that soft timers can be used to implement attacks such as a stealthy key logger and a CPU cycle stealer. To defend against these attacks, we propose an approach based on static analysis...
