Abstract

Nowadays, malware has become one of the most serious threats to information security, which causes incalculable economic losses. In this paper, we introduce a malware analysis platform based on taint analysis. Our platform focuses on the overflow attack (Of all attacks, more than 60% is the overflow attack) and the condition-related malware protection technology (which is one of the most popular malware protection technologies). Experiments show that our platform is efficient for malware detection and analysis.
