Code reuse attack (CRA) is a powerful exploitation technique that allows attackers to perform arbitrary computation. To maximize the performance, prior hardware solutions to CRAs require invasive modifications to the CPU architecture or substantial storage overhead to keep the binary analysis result. In this paper, we propose a new debug interface with which CRA solutions can be easily implemented without the CPU modifications nor offline binary analysis.
