December 14, 2003Eau Claire: Finding potential security breaches in CToday Brian Chess posted some interesting information about extended static checking to find common types of security vulnerablities in real C programs. The tool, called Eau Claire, looks for common types of security vulnerabilities such as buffer overflows, race conditions and format string vulnerabilities. Although Brian admits it is not a program verifier, it looks like a pretty good tool to add as part of your QA process as it relates to static checking. I will have to look into this some more when I have some free time. I think that my verifier tools I already use do all this, but it never hurts to add more tests!
