An Efficient Metric-Based Approach for Static Use-After-Free Detection
Author
Abstract

Measurement and Metrics Testing - Nowadays, attackers are increasingly using UseAfter-Free(UAF) vulnerabilities to create threats against software security. Existing static approaches for UAF detection are capable of finding potential bugs in the large code base. In most cases, analysts perform manual inspections to verify whether the warnings detected by static analysis are real vulnerabilities. However, due to the complex constraints of constructing UAF vulnerability, it is very time and cost-intensive to screen all warnings. In fact, many warnings should be discarded before the manual inspection phase because they are almost impossible to get triggered in real-world, and it is often overlooked by current static analysis techniques.
