Research
Detect Type Confusion Problem Efficiently
The features of modularity and inheritance in C++ facilitate the developers’ usage, but also give rise to the problem of type confusion. As an ancestor class, a dangerous downcasting operation from the ancestor to its descendant can lead to a critical attack, such as control flow hijacking, out-of-bounds access to neighbor memory area, etc.
Software Security
This research is about to find ways to protect software and make it more secure.
Deep learning assisted program analysis
Deep learning is a powerful tool to overcome the awkward situation of extracting endless rules from real world. We propose some novel approach in program analysis.
