FRESCO: Complete and Scalable Temporal Safety for CHERI Application Processors

Merve Gülmez, Nils Jordan, Jialun Zhang +4

CHERI provides hardware-enforced spatial memory safety. While prior work extends it with heap temporal safety, stack use-after-return remains unaddressed. Existing defenses fall sh…

iResolveX: Multi-Layered Indirect Call Resolution via Static Reasoning and Learning-Augmented Refinement

Monika Santra, Bokai Zhang, Mark Lim +3

Indirect call resolution remains a key challenge in reverse engineering and control-flow graph recovery, especially for stripped or optimized binaries. Static analysis is sound but…

SandCell: Sandboxing Rust Beyond Unsafe Code

Jialun Zhang, Merve Gulmez, Thomas Nyman +1

Rust is a modern systems programming language that ensures memory safety by enforcing ownership and borrowing rules at compile time. While the unsafe keyword allows programmers to…

SoK: Understanding the Attack Surface in Device Driver Isolation Frameworks

Yongzhe Huang, Kaiming Huang, Matthew Ennis +4

Device driver isolation is a promising approach for protecting the kernel from faulty or malicious drivers, but the actual security provided by such frameworks is often not well un…

Top of the Heap: Efficient Memory Error Protection of Safe Heap Objects

Kaiming Huang, Mathias Payer, Zhiyun Qian +3

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 incomple…
