Abstract. Practical computer (in)security is largely driven by the existence of and knowledge about vulnerabilities, which can be exploited to breach security mechanisms. Although ...
The security of software applications is an important domain, and one that mixes formalisms (e.g. when dealing with cryptography and security protocols) with very ad hoc, low level...
We describe an methodology for testing a software system for possible security flaws. Based on the observation that most security flaws are caused by the program’s inappropria...
This paper presents results from analyzing the vulnerability of security-critical software applications to malicious threats and anomalous events using an automated fault injectio...
—Fuzz testing has proven successful in finding security vulnerabilities in large programs. However, traditional fuzz testing tools have a well-known common drawback: they are in...
