Spatial memory errors such as buffer overflows still rank among the top vulnerabilities in
C/C++ programs. Despite much research in the area, the performance overhead of (even …

Use-after-free vulnerabilities remain difficult to detect and mitigate, making them a popular
source of exploitation. Existing solutions incur impractical performance/memory overhead …

In-process compartmentalization and access control have been actively explored to provide
in-place and efficient isolation of in-process security domains. Many works have proposed …

Kernel information leak vulnerabilities are a major security threat to production systems.
Attackers can exploit them to leak confidential information such as cryptographic keys or …

Type confusion bugs are a common source of security problems whenever software makes
use of type hierarchies, as an inadvertent downcast to an incompatible type is hard to detect …

Maliciously-overwritten function pointers in C programs often lead to arbitrary code
execution. In principle, forward CFI schemes mitigate this problem by restricting indirect …

Information leakage vulnerabilities (or simply info leaks) such as out-of-bounds/uninitialized
reads in the architectural or speculative domain pose a significant security threat, allowing …

Heap memory errors remain a major source of software vulnerabilities. Existing memory
safety defenses aim at protecting all objects, resulting in high performance cost and …

C/C++ programs frequently encounter memory errors, such as Use-After-Free (UAF), buffer
overflow, and integer overflow. Among these memory errors, UAF vulnerabilities are …

Memory safety in complex applications implemented in unsafe programming languages
such as C/C++ is still an unresolved problem in practice. Such applications were often …
