Taint Propagation Analysis Algorithm for Vulnerability Exploits Detection
Liang Zhang · Journal of Chinese Computer Systems · 2010
Software vulnerabilities have become an omnipresent and dangerous threat to network security.Vulnerability Exploits Detection is proposed to take active defense measures to monitor system state and cut exploit data sources off or terminate program execution before exploitation.Taint analysis for vulnerability exploits detection is composed of taint propagation link,taint propagation,taint analysis and taint track.A Vulnerability exploits detection prototype system was implemented by emulator and many optimization mechanisms.In contrast to the experiment result of other taint analysis systems,our prototype system has higher accuracy and vulnerability exploits coverage.
