Typestate Checking of Machine Code
We check statically whether it is safe for untrusted foreign machine code to be loaded into a trusted host system. (Here “safety” means that the program abides by a memory-acc...

Safety checking of machine code
We show how to determine statically whether it is safe for untrusted machine code to be loaded into a trusted host system. Our safety-checking technique operates directly on the u...

Generalized Typestate Checking for Data Structure Consistency
Abstract. We present an analysis to verify abstract set specifications for programs that use object field values to determine the membership of objects in abstract sets. In our a...

PLURAL: checking protocol compliance under aliasing
Enforcing compliance to API usage protocols is notoriously hard due to possible aliasing of objects through multiple references. In previous work we proposed a sound, modular appr...

Model Checking Machine Code with the GNU Debugger
Embedded software verification is an important verification problem that requires the ability to reason about the timed semantics of concurrent behaviors at a low level of atomic...
