Research

 

My work primarily lies in the area of software and systems security, with a higher focus on:

Memory Safety

  • mitigations against memory corruption vulnerabilities (code-reuse and data-oriented attacks)
  • in systems software written in C/C++/Assembly (OS kernels, browsers, libraries);
  • via existing hardware extensions (VT-x, MPK, PAC, MTE, SMAP), or custom ones (on RISC-V).

Automated Software Analysis and Testing

  • static: type analysis, data-flow analysis, taint tracking (via LLVM);
  • dynamic: fuzzing (syzkaller/AFL), symbolic execution.

Sandboxing

  • container, process, and VM isolation;
  • trusted execution environments (ARM TZ, AMD SEV, Intel TDX).

Hardware Security

  • Meltdown, Spectre, Foreshadow, Pacman.
