Abstract:
In a binary patching system for alleviating security vulnerabilities in a binary representation of a software application, a binary code portion determined to be associated with a security vulnerability is replaced with a replacement binary code that can avoid such vulnerability without substantially changing the functionality of the code portion that was replaced. The replacement binary code can be selected based on properties and/or context of the code portion to be replaced.
