Object-code Buffer Overrun Evaluator


Object-code Buffer Overrun Evaluator

(security, programming, tool)(OBOE) A tool by R. Banfi,D. Bruschi, and E. Rosti for the automatic detection ofbuffer overrun vulnerabilities in object code. OBOE canbe applied to operating system components as well asordinary application programs. It was designed for thesystem administrator to identify vulnerable programs beforethey are exploited. Being automatic, OBOE can be run as abackground process for the analysis of all potentiallyinsecure programs installed on a Unix system. It runs onHP-UX, Linux, and Sun Solaris.
