Striking a new balance between program instrumentation and debugging time
Although they are helpful in many cases, state-of-the-art bug reporting systems may impose excessive overhead on users, leak private information, or provide little help to the dev...

A First Step Towards Automated Detection of Buffer Overrun Vulnerabilities
We describe a new technique for finding potential buffer overrun vulnerabilities in security-critical C code. The key to success is to use static analysis: we formulate detection...

Static memory leak detection using full-sparse value-flow analysis
We introduce a static detector, Saber, for detecting memory leaks in C programs. Leveraging recent advances on sparse pointer analysis, Saber is the first to use a full-sparse va...
