Abstract
According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method may include guiding automated testing of a binary program with respect to a potentially vulnerable location. The method may include obtaining a first basic block of a first binary program and comparing the first basic block with a second basic block of a second binary program. The comparison may be in response to the second basic block having been previously identified as having a vulnerability. The method may further include identifying the first basic block as a potentially vulnerable location based on a correspondence between the first basic block and the second basic block. The correspondence may be indicated by the comparison of the first basic block with the second basic block. The method may further include guiding a testing execution of the first binary program based on the identification of the first basic block as the potentially vulnerable location.
