Abstract:
A method for generating vulnerability reports based on application binary interface/application programming interface usage may include extracting a binary file and a security report relating to a software program, the security report having a vulnerability list of pending vulnerabilities relating to the software program, and detecting, from the binary file, interface usage details associated with interfaces and shared libraries used by the software program. The interfaces include application binary interfaces (ABIs). The method may further include matching the interface usage details with the pending vulnerability of the vulnerability list, and generating a vulnerability report based on matching.
