Disclosed herein are a garbage collection method and apparatus. The garbage collection method includes when an area dynamically allocated through a malloc( ) function or a new operator of a standard C library is deallocated through a free( ) function or a delete operator, inserting the deallocated area into a quarantine list, recording a base address and an end address of each of areas inserted into the quarantine list in a CSR_quarantined_chunks register, finding a physical address of a memory page used by a processor and searching data in the memory page for a value included in a quarantined area of the CSR_quarantined_chunks register, when a value included in the quarantined area is not present, setting a state flag bit of the register to 0, and deleting an area which the state flag bit is 0 from the quarantine list, and inserting the area into a free list.

Disclosed herein are a method for replacing vehicle parts using an in-vehicle network based on an automotive Ethernet and a system for the same. The method is configured such that a vehicle diagnosis module included in a vehicle performs vehicle self-diagnosis, such that the vehicle and a vehicle manufacturer server perform an authentication process for a new part when a vehicle part is replaced based on a vehicle part replacement agreement procedure between the terminal of a vehicle owner and the maintenance terminal of a vehicle maintenance company, and such that the terminal of the vehicle owner checks whether replacement of the vehicle part is performed normally by requesting an integrity check result from each of the vehicle and the vehicle manufacturer server when the maintenance terminal transmits a part replacement completion message to the terminal of the vehicle owner after completion of the authentication process.

Disclosed herein are a dynamic memory management apparatus and a method for allocating/deallocating dynamic memory. The apparatus includes actual memory configured to allocate or deallocate a heap, virtual memory configured to set/store heap allocation information at a virtual address mapped to an actual address that is a body start address of a heap area of the actual memory, and a dynamic memory manager configured to process a memory allocation or deallocation request and the virtual memory, wherein the heap allocation information includes access authority information for storing information indicating whether a heap at an actual address is allocated or deallocated, and count information increased whenever a heap is allocated, and the dynamic memory manager is configured to return an address pointer including an actual address of a heap allocated to the actual memory and heap allocation information to the program, and process a heap deallocation or reallocation request.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus for analyzing non-informative firmware and a method using the apparatus. The method includes detecting a target instruction for firmware analysis in a memory map in non-informative firmware, generating an analysis list based on memory map information corresponding to the target instruction, and generating a visualized analysis result corresponding to the firmware by grouping the entries of the analysis list by preset reference bytes.

Disclosed herein are a dynamic memory management apparatus and method and a computer-readable storage medium for the same. The dynamic memory management method includes defining a shadow area mapped to a memory area, setting a coloring value in the shadow area, and permitting or denying access to the memory area based on the coloring value when accessing the memory area.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for detecting violation of control flow integrity. The apparatus includes memory for storing a program and a processor for executing the program, wherein the processor multiple branch identifier registers to which identifiers of branch targets are written, a set branch identifier instruction configured to command an identifier of a branch target to be written to a branch identifier register at a predetermined sequence number, among the multiple branch identifier registers, and a check branch identifier instruction configured to command a signal indicating detection of a control flow hijacking attack to be issued based on whether a value written to the branch identifier register at the predetermined sequence number is identical to a value of an identifier of a branch target at the predetermined sequence number, wherein the program detects whether a control flow is hijacked based on the multiple branch identifier registers.

Apparatus and method for detecting violation of control flow integrity

Disclosed herein are an in-vehicle network apparatus and method. The in-vehicle network apparatus includes one or more processors and executable memory for storing at least one program executed by the one or more processors. The at least one program is configured to verify the integrity of software stored in advance in the executable memory, to generate a key table by sharing authentication information with a communication target, and to exchange an encrypted message with the communication target using the key table.

Apparatus and method for in-vehicle network communication

Disclosed herein are a method for managing an access control list based on an automotive Ethernet and an apparatus for the same. The method includes analyzing a new access control rule that is input to a vehicle in which the automotive Ethernet is applied, searching for any one target unit to manage the new access control rule in consideration of at least one of a destination and an application target corresponding to the new access control rule, and storing the new access control rule by transmitting a storage request message corresponding to the new access control rule to the target unit.

The present invention relates to a memory virtualization-based snapshot boot apparatus and method. The memory virtualization-based snapshot boot apparatus includes hardware unit including a processor, memory, and storage, the storage storing status information corresponding to an operating system, and a Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) operated by the processor and configured to operate the operating system by loading the status information into the memory. In accordance with the present invention, technology for loading only a part of a snapshot image and booting a system is implemented using virtualization technology, thus shortening the booting time of the system.
