Abstract

The automatic detection of security vulnerabilities in binary code is challenging and lacks efficient tools. This paper presents a novel semi-simulation approach to statically detect potential vulnerabilities in binary code. The semi-simulation approach simulates address related instructions accurately using value set analysis, and only traces data dependence on other instructions using data dependence analysis. We have implemented this approach on a tool called LoongChecker, and evaluate it on three real world programs, and detect three known vulnerabilities and two zero-day vulnerabilities. The results show our approach is practical and can be applied to large real world software.
