S2E

I collaborated with the S2E project in the scope of the DARPA Cyber Grand Challenge, focusing on the development of a plugin for automated exploit generation. Details related to this part of the project are available here.




ud2

ud2 is a github organization where @rpaleari and I will release our future security-related projects, our tools, and advisories for vulnerability we identify.




Fuzztrace

I collaborate with the open source project FuzzTrace, a “general-purpose” tracing tool for closed-source applications, aimed at generating a concise execution trace that can be used to support the fuzz-testing activity or other analyses. More details on this project can be found in the following blog post.




HyperDbg

HyperDbg is a kernel debugger that leverages hardware-assisted virtualization. More precisely, HyperDbg is based on a minimalistic hypervisor that is installed while the system runs. Compared to traditional kernel debuggers (e.g., WinDbg, SoftIce, Rasta R0 Debugger) HyperDbg is completely transparent to the kernel and can be used to debug kernel code without the need of serial (or USB) cables. The project is unfortunately no longer maintained.




CopperDroid

CopperDroid is an analysis framework to automatically perform out-of-the-box dynamic behavioral analysis of Android malware. CopperDroid uses a unified analysis to characterize low-level OS-specific (e.g., writing to a file) and high-level Android-specific behaviors (e.g., sending an SMS, placing a phone call). In addition, CopperDroid features a stimulation technique to improve code coverage, aimed at triggerring additional behaviors of interest.
