Abstract

A security analysis of an application is performed by encoding predicates during a first operation by asserting a set of data flow facts comprising a mapping from a variable to a security-relevant substring of a string of the application. A respective truth value is associated with each data flow fact of the set of data flow facts. The set of data flow facts and each truth value are stored in a tangible computer-readable memory device. The truth value of at least one data flow fact of the set of data flow facts is updated in at least one subsequent operation using a set of abstract transformers to eliminate or reduce a security vulnerability in the application.
