Research Of Vulerability Detection And Usage Under Win32 Plateform

Growing in complexity as well as in scale, software, the foundation of information technology, is becoming more and more difficult to develop and maintain. With the development of the Internet, program vulnerabilities or security flaws introduced in software development are exposed largely to various attacks and intrusions. Therefore, research on software security is becoming an active field in information technology.This thesis does a deep analysis and research on vulnerability detection technology under Win32 platform, including static and dynamic analysis of the source code, detection technology based on reverse analysis of executable files. After those analysis and research, the thesis points out the constraint of those existing detection tools. The thesis also proposes an idea of grey box testing which can be used in reverse analysis of executable files. Furthermore, it analyzes the feasibility of applying heuristic scan and return address detection technology widely used in...
