Abstract
A method for detecting, analyzing, and mitigating vulnerabilities in software is provided. The method includes determining whether one or more vulnerabilities are present in one or more target software components, determining whether any detected vulnerabilities are fixable, and fixing the detected vulnerabilities that are fixable in code or in associated models used to generate code. A vulnerability-covering code is generated when one or more of the detected vulnerabilities are not fixable. A determination is then made whether there are any remaining vulnerabilities in the vulnerability-covering code. A vulnerability-aware diverse code is generated when there are one or more remaining vulnerabilities to obfuscate the remaining vulnerabilities.
