Reviews finding Vulnerabilities through Static Analysis and Scripting and evaluates key implications for security practitioners.

Summary

Overview: r2c is writing and helping others write tools to exploit and eradicate entire vulnerability classes at scale. In this workshop, we'll show how to develop program analysis tools that can be depended on in analysis pipelines and quickly run at massive scale. If you've ever wondered "but surely, no programmer would upload something that does that do NPM" this is the place to be! Our command line tool for local analyzer development is freely available and publicly documented—we'll show you how to ge

Key Topics: t started and invite you to collaborate with us on to build pipelines that use pre-computed intermediary representations that we already have. We'll also show how to use our collaborative triage tools with impact prioritization that can quickly allow turning these analysis results into bug-bounty submissions. No program (static/dynamic) analysis background required (though it is helpful!) Motivated developers should be able to make at least one bug bounty submission by the end of the workshop.
