  • Patent number: 11934534
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for analyzing a program to be executed on a computer to detect vulnerability for malicious attacks using the program. One method includes an operation for performing dynamic vulnerability detection of a driver when the driver is loaded in a computing system. The dynamic vulnerability detection comprises detecting at least one offset made available by the driver for access to the driver, and detecting application programming interface (API) calls made by the driver. Further, the method includes performing static vulnerability detection of the driver by analyzing binary code of the driver. The static vulnerability detection comprises determining the at least one offset available for access to the driver, and identifying vulnerable code paths to functions accessing kernel functionality.

  • Patent number: 11729145
    Abstract: Web server security is assessed. Some embodiments analyze data exchanged with a web server to determine a risk associated with accessing the web server. For example, one or more of a type of web application accessed via the web server, a type of interpreted language used to implement the web server, and/or a type and/or version of an http server operable on the web server are examined. Based on the analysis, the risk associated with accessing the web server is determined. Some embodiments then block access to the web server based on the analysis. Alternatively, in some embodiments, a user may be alerted to the risk, and then allowed to proceed upon accepting the risks. Some embodiments share the determined risk assessment with other client devices via a web server risk data store.
