Exploits Club Summary:

This paper, which was just accepted to USINEX ‘24, walks through “MangoDFA, a novel binary data-flow analysis leveraging value analysis and data dependency analysis on binary code”. The key idea is a scalable way to statically analyze Linux-based IoT firmware for common bugs. The results showed that the tool was able to both analyze binaries quicker and find more bugs compared to the other solutions currently available.
