20090113550 | Automatic Filter Generation and Generalization - Methods and architectures for automatic filter generation are described. In an embodiment, these filters are generated in order to block inputs which would otherwise disrupt the normal functioning of a program. An initial set of filter conditions is generated by analyzing the path of a program from a point at which a bad input is received to the point at which the malfunctioning of the program is detected and creating conditions on an input which ensure that this path is followed. Having generated the initial set of filter conditions, the set is made less specific by determining which instructions do not influence whether the point of detection of the attack is reached and removing the filter conditions which correspond to these instructions. | 04-30-2009 |
20090132861 | Privacy Enhanced Error Reports - Methods and apparatus for generating error reports with enhanced privacy are described.

The error report may include these conditions or may include a new input generated using the conditions. | 05-21-2009 |
20090249289 | DETECTING MEMORY ERRORS USING WRITE INTEGRITY TESTING - Methods of detecting memory errors using write integrity testing are described. In an embodiment, additional analysis is performed when a program is compiled. This analysis identifies a set of objects which can be written by each instruction in the program. Additional code is then inserted into the program so that, at runtime, the program checks before performing a write instruction that the particular object being written is one of the set of objects that it is allowed to write. The inserted code causes an exception to be raised if this check fails and allows the write to proceed if the check is successful. In a further embodiment, code may also be inserted to perform checks before indirect control-flow transfer instructions, to ensure that those instructions cannot transfer control to locations different from those intended. | 10-01-2009 |
20090282393 | Securing Software By Enforcing Data Flow Integrity - The majority of such software attacks exploit software vulnerabilities or flaws to write data to unintended locations. For example, control-data attacks exploit buffer overflows or other vulnerabilities to overwrite a return address in the stack, a function pointer, or some other piece of control data. Non-control-data attacks exploit similar vulnerabilities to overwrite security critical data without subverting the intended control flow in the program. We describe a method for securing software against both control-data and non-control-data attacks. A static analysis is carried out to determine data flow information for a software program. Data-flow tracking instructions are formed in order to track data flow during execution or emulation of that software. Also, checking instructions are formed to check the tracked data flow against the static analysis results and thereby identify potential attacks or errors. Optional optimisations are described to reduce the resulting additional overheads. | 11-12-2009 |
20110138476 | Software Fault Isolation Using Byte-Granularity Memory Protection - Software fault isolation methods using byte-granularity memory protection are described. In an embodiment, untrusted drivers or other extensions to a software system are run in a separate domain from the host portion of the software system, but share the same address space as the host portion. Calls between domains are mediated using an interposition library and access control data is maintained for substantially each byte of relevant virtual address space. Instrumentation added to the untrusted extension at compile-time, before load-time, or at runtime and added by the interposition library enforces the isolation between domains, for example by adding access right checks before any writes or indirect calls and by redirecting function calls to call wrappers in the interposition library. The instrumentation also updates the access control data to grant and revoke access rights on a fine granularity according to the semantics of the operation being invoked. | 06-09-2011 |

A pivot bar with a pair of receptor ports is moved from a folded to an extended position below the fascia. The trocar port is removed over the device as the pivot bar is pulled upward against the fascia. A pair of stylet guides are deployed from two sides of the device housing, and intercept the receptor ports, thereby creating a suture path through the first guide, through a channel in the pivot bar between the receptor ports, and through the second guide. A stylet is directed through the suture path to pull a suture through the path. The guides are refracted, the pivot bar is folded, the device is removed, and the suture is tied. A stylet guide may have a partially deployed position to accurately inject an anesthetic at a desired intra-muscular layer. | 11-27-2014 |
