Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method, apparatus, device and computer-readable storage medium for guiding symbolic execution. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, it is possible to determine the specific code region of the program, and obtain the program loop output of the program corresponding to the specific code region of the program by using the program inverse analysis method, so that it is possible to obtain the program loop input of the program corresponding to the specific code region by using the program loop predictor according to the program loop output of the program. In this way, the obtained program loop input of the program corresponding to the specific code region may be used to guide the symbolic execution to filter out impossible execution paths and jump out of the program code and reach the specific code region, thereby improving the reliability of the symbolic execution.
