TitlePractical Type and Memory Safety Violation Detection Mechanism 

                                                                      

Abstract

System programming languages such as C and C++ are designed to give the programmer full control over the underlying hardware. However, this freedom comes at the cost of type and memory safety violations, which may allow an attacker to compromise applications. In this talk, I will present our three approaches to address these type and memory safety violation issues. First, I will introduce HexType and V-Type, our advanced type safety violation detectors that provide light-weight metadata structures, compiler optimizations, and handle specific object allocation patterns. Our tools significantly improve detection coverage and reduce performance overhead. In addition, our tools discover new type confusion bugs in real-world programs such as Qt and Apache Xerces-C++. Next, I will introduce FuZZan to optimize memory safety violation detectors for fuzzing. Consequently, FuZZan improves fuzzing throughput, and this helps the tester find even more bugs given the same amount of time.
