Publication number: 20140283036Abstract: An example method for mitigating JIT spraying attacks in a network environment is provided and includes protecting an output of a just-in-time (JIT) compiler against attacks during application execution at least by intervening from outside the application into a JIT page generated by the JIT compiler in a memory element of a host. In a specific embodiment, the intervening can include rewriting the JIT page. In specific embodiments, the method can further include generating a shadow page corresponding to the JIT page in the memory element. The method can further include randomly choosing at least one block of instructions in the JIT page, moving the at least one block of instructions to the shadow page, and replacing the at least one block of instructions in the JIT page with at least one of invalid opcodes and halt instructions.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2013Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: CISCO TECHNOLOGY, INC.Inventors: Babak Salamat, Joseph Epstein

Patent number: 8787309Abstract: AP's associated with a communication network and any wireless devices desiring contact, operated according to a protocol in which each wireless device selects AP's with which to communicate. A system coordinator causes the AP's to operate so as to guide each wireless device to an AP selected by the system coordinator. This has the effect that, notwithstanding that the protocol involves having the wireless device make the selection of AP, functionally, the AP's make the selection for it. In a 1st technique, multiple AP's share an identifier, with the system coordinator directing one particular AP to respond to the wireless device, thus appearing to wireless devices as a “personal cell”. In a 2nd technique, AP's each maintain identifiers substantially unique to each wireless device, with the system coordinator directing only one particular AP to maintain any particular wireless device's identifier, thus appearing to wireless devices as a “personal AP”.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2010Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Assignee: Meru NetworksInventors: Vaduvur Bharghavan, Sung-Wook Han, Joseph Epstein, Berend Dunsbergen, Saravanan Balasubramanian
