Abstract
By way of example, a system, method, and computer program product are provided for identifying vulnerabilities associated with data loaded in memory. In operation, a subset of data that is loaded in memory is identified, including for example by name and version number. The subset of data is compared to a known minimal version known to be good. Furthermore, there is a reaction based on the comparison, such as reporting a vulnerability.
