Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for analyzing source code of an application. In some implementations, actions include determining a control flow graph of the application using the source code of the application; determining a plurality of source-sink pairs of exploitable data sources and exploitable data sinks; and determining, for each source-sink pair, whether the source-sink pair is potentially exploitable by: determining one or more conditions under which the invoking procedure passes the exploitable data source to the exploitable data sink of the invoked procedure; and determining, using the control flow graph, whether the conditions are met in at least one possible context of the application, and if so, determining that the source-sink pair is potentially exploitable.
