Patent number: 10901730Abstract: Identifying equivalent JavaScript events includes receiving source code containing two JavaScript events for equivalency analysis, extracting an HTML element containing an event from each JavaScript event and analyzing the extracted HTML elements. Responsive to a determination that the HTML elements are of a same type according to equivalency criteria B, and responsive to a determination that the HTML elements have a same number of attributes according to equivalency criteria C, a determination is made whether JavaScript function calls of each JavaScript event are similar according to equivalency criteria A. Responsive to a determination that the JavaScript function calls are similar according to equivalency criteria A, and responsive to a determination that the other attributes of the HTML elements satisfy equivalency criteria D, the JavaScript events are identified as equivalent.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2018Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Gregor von Bochmann, Nevon C. Brake, Mustafa Emre Dincturk, Paul Ionescu, Guy-Vincent Jourdan, Iosif Viorel Onut, Wayne Duncan Smith, Seyed M. Mir Taheri

Patent number: 10146749Abstract: An embodiment for tracking JavaScript actions in a rich Internet application, receives a document object model (DOM) representative of a particular page of an application at a particular time and analyzes the DOM received to identify each JavaScript action on the particular page for which each JavaScript action identified, a JavaScript action characteristics ID is calculated and stored. Responsive to a determination multiple instances of a same ID exist, collecting a list of JavaScript actions corresponding to each ID corresponding to a multiple JavaScript action and removing from memory JavaScript action entries for the multiple instances of the same ID. A neighbor influence is computed for a member of the list of JavaScript actions remaining and the JavaScript action ID calculated for the member of the list of JavaScript actions remaining is stored. Responsive to a determination there are no more multiple JavaScript actions, return all JavaScript action IDs stored.Type: GrantFiled: January 6, 2015Date of Patent: December 4, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Khalil A. Ayoub, Gregor V. Bochmann, Nevon C. Brake, Mustafa E. Dincturk, Paul Ionescu, Guy-Vincent Jourdan, Iosif V. Onut

Patent number: 9785710Abstract: A computer program product for crawling URLs that are encoded and highly dynamic, the computer program product includes a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith. The computer readable program code includes computer readable program code configured to retrieve navigational state information corresponding to a URL and compare the navigational state information to previously stored navigational state information corresponding to one or more previously visited URLs. The computer readable program code also includes computer readable program code configured to determine if the URL has been previously visited and retrieve content associated with the URL if the URL has not been previously visited.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2011Date of Patent: October 10, 2017Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Nevon C. Brake, Obidul Islam, Adi Sharabani

Patent number: 9160762Abstract: Verifying application security vulnerabilities includes receiving a source code to analyze, performing a static analysis using the received source code and generating a vulnerability call trace for the received source code. Responsive to a determination that all static analysis results are not validated, mock objects are generated using the vulnerability call trace and a unit test is created using the generated mock objects. The unit test is executed using the generated mock objects and responsive to a determination that an identified vulnerability was validated; a next static analysis result is selected. Responsive to a determination that all static analysis results are validated, results and computed unit tests are reported.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2014Date of Patent: October 13, 2015Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Nevon C.
