Application of compiler transformations against software vulnerabilitiesn exploitation

摘要

Software vulnerabilities are a serious threat for security of information systems. Any software written in C/C++ contain considerable amount of vulnerabilities. Some of them can be used by attackers to seize control of the system. In this paper, for counteracting such vulnerabilities, we propose to use compiler transformations: function reordering by permutation within a module, insertion of additional local variables into the function's stack, local variables hashing on the stack. By means of t
