CONTEXT: Reusing software by means of copy and paste is a frequent activity in software
development. The duplicated code is known as a software clone and the activity is known as …

Reverse engineering is a manually intensive but necessary technique for understanding the
inner workings of new malware, finding vulnerabilities in existing systems, and detecting …

Code clone detection is an important problem for software maintenance and evolution. Many
approaches consider either structure or identifiers, but none of the existing detection …

Source code clones are categorized into four types of increasing difficulty of detection,
ranging from purely textual (Type-1) to purely semantic (Type-4). Most clone detectors …

Binary code search has received much attention recently due to its impactful applications,
eg, plagiarism detection, malware detection and software vulnerability auditing. However …

Code clones are similar code fragments that share the same semantics but may differ
syntactically to various degrees. Detecting code clones helps reduce the cost of software …

Smart contracts have been increasingly used together with blockchains to automate
financial and business transactions. However, many bugs and vulnerabilities have been …

Recurring vulnerabilities widely exist and remain undetected in real-world systems, which
are often resulted from reused code base or shared code logic. However, the potentially …

Matching function binaries—the process of identifying similar functions among binary
executables—is a challenge that underlies many security applications such as malware …
