SoK - The Art of War - Offensive Techniques in Binary Analysis

Explore offensive techniques in binary analysis through this IEEE conference talk presented at the 2016 IEEE Symposium on Security & Privacy. Delve into the challenges of finding and exploiting vulnerabilities in binary code, and learn about a comprehensive binary analysis framework that implements various analysis techniques. Discover how this framework allows for the composition of different approaches and enables direct comparison of their effectiveness. Gain insights into the importance of binary analysis in proving properties about executed code, especially when high-level information is unavailable. Examine the evaluation of these techniques using a DARPA-created dataset for assessing binary vulnerability analysis effectiveness. Access the open-sourced framework to further your understanding and contribute to the security community's ongoing efforts in this critical field.
