The main contribution of this paper is a framework for security testing. The key components
of this framework are twofold: First, a static analyzer that automatically identifies suspicious …

CONTEXT: Passive testing is a technique in which traces collected from the execution of a
system under test are examined for evidence of flaws in the system. OBJECTIVE: In this …

The detection of vulnerabilities in computer systems and computer networks as well as the
representation of the results are crucial problems. The presented method tackles the …

Security testing aims at detecting program security flaws through a set of test cases and has
become an active area of research. The challenge is how to efficiently produce test cases …

Security attacks typically result from unintended behaviors or invalid inputs. Security testing
is labor intensive because a real-world program usually has too many invalid inputs. It is …

Eliminating vulnerabilities from low-level code is vital for securing software. Static analysis is
a promising approach for discovering vulnerabilities since it can provide developers early …

Vulnerable statements constitute a major problem for developers and maintainers of
networking systems. Their presence can ease the success of security attacks, aimed at …

The increasing complexity of secure software applications has given rise to static analysis
security tools to alert developers to potential security flaws within source code. However …

We describe an approach and tool for analyzing the vulnerability of software applications to
anomalous events and malicious threats during software development. Traditionally …

Detecting security vulnerabilities is a crucial part in secure software development. Many
static analysis tools have proved to be effective in finding vulnerabilities, but generally there …
