Buffer overflow is known to be a common memory vulnerability affecting software. It is exploited to gain various kinds of privilege escalation. C and C++ are very commonly used to develop applications; due to the efficient “unmanaged” executions these languages are not safe. These attacks are highly successful as every executing copy of a shipped binary is the same. This work presents two approaches...
On the basis of analyzing the safety formulas for various types of vulnerabilities, this paper presents a novel method for software vulnerability testing, which uses source-code conversion and the state information of function-call to test the vulnerability of software. This method could cover a variety of vulnerabilities. The implementation shows that it can check the attack of buffer overflow accurately,...
The presence of vulnerable statements in the source code is a crucial problem for maintainers: properly monitoring and, if necessary, removing them is highly desirable to ensure high security and reliability. To this aim, a number of static analysis tools have been developed to detect the presence of instructions that can be subject to vulnerability attacks, ranging from buffer overflow exploitations...
